so, she was allowed to make her own mistakes when younger, sleeping with a man out of wedlock, 40 years her senior, using contraceptives to keep from getting pregnant etc....swooooosh.....Is she running for office? How about an investigation in Santorum's parents? There might be a good manufactured scandal in there someplace.
Let's have a reread of Mooche's Princeton Thesis while we're at it.
over your head Katz.....
was she or was she not a supporter of birth control or was she a good little Catholic and did not support birth control, as her stance is, now that she cleaned up her act?
simple, really.... a yes or a no....
and as stated earlier, I seriously DOUBT that you and other right wing supporters, would have said this is not about her because she isn't running, IF this had been about Mrs Obama having an alleged 6 year affair with a man 40 years her senior, during the 2008 campaign....
I personally do not care about the affair previous to her marriage....people grow and change and learn from any mistakes.....that's what we are suppose to do....
BUT the question of whether she supported birth control then is a valid question, considering her stance now and the position of the Catholic Church has taken in this political battle on contraceptions being a part of a health care policy.
Seems like she supported contraception in her early sexually active years or a baby would have come forth, OR IT IS POSSIBLE that this alleged affair was only a platonic relationship and NOT as others are stating.....?
Karen was a progressive non practicing Catholic nursing student at the time. We're talking 30 years ago. From what I gather she was in love with the man at the time and lived with him. Not an "affair".
30 years ago. It's not a valid question. It's bullshit. And she's become a practicing Catholic and they have 8 kids so we know how she feels about contraception now.
On the other hand it's been less than a decade for Obama to have not supported the Illinois Born Alive Infant Protection Act.
And that's a cold cold heart the President has.
3 times in a row.
yet, all on her own, she lived her life and learned from her mistakes or previously positioned wrong beliefs, without the Church forcing her or government forcing her to shape up or ship out.....she chose to not use birth control later in life, she chose to be married and she chose to be a good mother of 8.....all by her lonesome....
why does the government or the Church need to meddle in other people's business? Why can't everyone have the same choices as Mrs Santorum did when she was young and foolish and be allowed to find their way back to God, on their own as well? (this is going back to the contraception debate and the stance of the Catholic Church on BC)
I believe strongly, that mistakes are for a reason, and this is to learn from them and to bring one closer to God through His forgiveness....it's humbling to know that God forgives ones sins imo, and it makes us try to be better....looks like this is what has happened to Mrs. Santorum.
