we should all feel bad for Santorum's kids

village voice > people > Savage Love by Dan Savage

I remember listening to the radio when Santorum said something obnoxious about gay couples: An anti-gay-marriage amendment was a homeland security measure, Santorum said, which makes gay couples terrorists. My son, who happens to be the same age as Santorum’s younger daughter (the one weeping and clutching a doll in that widely circulated photo), was in the room at the time, and he got pretty upset. So, yeah, we should all feel bad for Santorum’s kids — what kind of parent drags a sobbing child in front of the national media? — but let’s also feel bad for all the other kids that Santorum hurt.
