Presidential candidate Rick Santorum has expanded on why he believes gay unions are wrong.

Speaking to a group of conservatives on Friday in Denver, Santorum revisited his 2003 remarks on the groundbreaking Supreme Court decision that struck down sodomy laws throughout the United States. Then-Pennsylvania Senator Santorum compared such unions to “man on dog.”

“I said, if the Supreme Court gives to individuals the constitutional right to consensual sexual activity, then you have the right to incest, you have the right … to polygamy, you name it, you have the right to anything, if it's consent.”

He added that the gay community went “ballistic” and the mainstream media asked him to resign “because I was comparing homosexuality with incest and other things.” (Those other things being bestiality.)

“No, I wasn't,” Santorum continued. “I was saying, if the standard is consent, then how do you rationally draw the line? You can't. And they aren't.”

1. "then how do you rationally draw the line? You can't. And they aren't.”

Because the stories of man on dog sex have been so rampant lately? Fido can't go out alone anymore just about.

2. He's just stupid. How does a dog consent?

As far as polygamy goes, as long as full disclosure to all spouses is made so there is no fraud, I really have no problem with it.

4. The other problem with polygamy is that so often it involves

older males and underage females.

3. Black & White thinking.

This logical flaw is far too prevalent on the right.
