Found on web- Brainless Santorum: Women Too Emotional For Combat

Washington Post: For a candidate with virtually no staff and who tends to talk off the cuff, Rick Santorum has been nearly gaffe-free. However, this evening might have been his first, and it comes at a time when he is trying to convince voters he is more than "just" a social conservative. When asked about the Pentagon's plan to allow women to serve in some combat roles, Santorum told CNN's John King: "I want to create every opportunity for women to be able to serve this country . . . but I do have concerns about women in front-line combat.

"I think that could be a very compromising situation, where people naturally may do things that may not be in the interest of the mission because of other types of emotions that are involved. It already happens, of course, with the camaraderie of men in combat, but I think it would be even more unique if women were in combat," Santorum added. "And I think that's not in the best interests of men, women or the mission."

Republicans are just giving us the WH!

They're imploding all on their own.

All we have to do is sit back and point and laugh.


Rickie got on his bicycle and backpeddled. Seems it's men who have the emotional issues. Waiting for him to cite one example where a man endangered his unit or the mission because he rescued a woman. As for the physical strength, some women don't have it, but then neither do some men. Give it up, Rick. These arguments were old ten years ago and more.
