Morgan is quick to point out that he knows Santorum doesn’t actually ‘hate’ women, but believes some of his ideas may make him anti-women, specifically his personal belief on contraception.

The problem is that Morgan, while trying to play this down, is doing what the libs do all the time. He’s just ‘putting it out there’ to put the idea in the listener’s head that Santorum is anti-women and wants to ban contraception. Morgan is doing his part to push that meme simply by vocalizing it. After all, if enough people ask Santorum why he’s anti-woman or why he wants to ban contraception, there must be something to it right?

How come none of you men talks about not paying for vasectomies and viagra. If you want to stop unwanted pregnancy I say don't pay for viagra. It's a start.

I want to know what pictures Rick wants to show men who want vasectomies???

He is a misogynist, he is a child abuser (check the school where he served on the board)

and oh by the way 98% of Roman Catholic women use birth control. I cannot for the life of me understand why any woman who was educated and exposed to religious teachings would be a muslim, fundatmentalist or Roman Catholic. In all those religions women are less than the men.. I think you should consider therapy for self hatred if you are woman and you think that men will take care of you.

They wouldn't let us vote until we battled 72 years. 1920!!! Abigail Adams told John to give us the vote and pig made fun of her.

WOMEN DO YOUR UTMOST NOT TO VOTE FOR MEN, but for sure do not vote Republican.

Hooray for Newt! He IS such a man. I loved how he was kicking A@# during the Monica debacle, saying Clinton was a cad and should be impeached (When this is when HE was wooing Calista, the blonde intern at the same time!) This is the kind of man we need in the White House.

It seems a question that needed answering. Santorum deftly says his voting record speaks for his positions on approving contraceptives as long as the church doesn't have to pay for it and go against its beliefs. I don't see the big Piers Morgan crime here. He certainly wasn't on the attack that would cause all the anger I'm seeing here.

santorum hates his mother. clearly he hates women. he keeps his ignorant wife pregnant even when it was unsafe for her and the children. one born dead and another born with a disorder related to the mother's age. he is a self righteous christian terrorist.

ok, can't finish watching this freak morgan throwing crab at Rick, disgust me worse that Rick paid attention to such a smear and allowed the fool to continue on with the rant. I would ask Morgan to block the pie hole, chew the remaining ambush question and swallow it. Such smear only smell appropriate when delivered out of liberal medias system from their arse. I 'm freakin pissed. ( pardon my construction site tongue )

All these idiots I know are saying that Santorum needs to get out of the race, because Ron Paul is going to get the nod. Only in America do you have morons say a candidate in second place should get out of the race, because someone in last place is going to win it. Haha!

I cannot stand Piers. But that aside. Women all know that contraceptives can be harmful. That is why there are so many different kinds out there. Therefore there needs to be a huge amounts of information, which there is not, made available to young girls before using contraceptives. Most doctors do a trial and error approach. I for one believe the massive use of the pill has contributed to the huge increase in breast cancer. Just look at the time line. Just saying women need to educate themselves about the issue. Just because Rick has his opinions about contraceptives does not mean he plans to force them on American women unlike the Liar-in-Chief in the WH who believes he can tell us all how to live our lives. I think we were doing much better before these big government progressive/liberal/communist/marxist/democraps got control of the government and started usurping power from the other branches of the government. Anybody but Oblamer.

I got a better question for Mr Morgan. Why is a smug British twit like you on American TV in the first place? You're boring and very dull. And why is it that Brits like Messers Varney, Hannan, Moncton, and Murray are so much smarter than you are? Hmmm??

toongoon

Morgan is smugly looking for soundbites from Santorum, wanting him to admit that should be more regulation on prescription drugs. Hollywood is Hollywood and it doesn't matter if there are more restrictions on them buying drugs, they will get them.

The thing is Democrats will put more restrictions on legal drugs while making illegal drugs easier to get. Santorum answered OK, but asking a question that really isn't important in this election and Santorum answering it as a legitimate question is damaging to him. The focus needs to be on how obamascare is going to be restricting freedom.

The left will hate Santorum because he personally shows too much respect for women. They'll hate Newt because he has a personal history showing too little respect. But hey, what's Bill Clinton up to these days?

I thought his answer was good until I heard "I voted to fund contraception." Cringe! Why is the federal government paying for this stuff? Is there a contraception crisis in America? Excuse while I go watch that Bill Whittle video on entitlements again. Maybe Santorum should too.

If most Conservatives feel like me, they've lost enormous respect for Romney for not telling us his attributes, but instead bashes those who are on the same political battlefield. Romney's done. He should drop out of the race.

President Obama Gives the Supreme Court Some Help

President Obama seemed to have stepped in something earlier this week. The news hit the street that the Department of Health and Human Services (whose very existence is supposedly validated by the goal in the preamble of the Constitution to “promote the general welfare”) had decided that the Obama/Reid/Pelosi Affordable Health Care Act, aka ObamaCare, empowered them to rule that Catholic (and all other) hospitals and charities and other subsidiary businesses must (had to, were required to, had no choice but to) provide their employees with “health” insurance policies that would pay for contraceptives, abortifacient drugs, and abortion procedures as well.

In some countries, the woman is being used in the implementation of their religious law. The difference in Western Countries is that the same woman is being used as a tool to advance leftist ideas. If in the first case, kids are used to carry out attacks, in the second instance kids are attacked before they are even able to come out the womb. These are just ideologies from the pit of hell!!

Why do I hate women?

For the same reason you beat your wife (or husband?), club baby seals, drown puppies and worship Marx, Mao, Lenin, Stalin and all the other mass murderers of the last hundred and fifty years or so.

Ooooh, I forgot the accusation. Could you repeat it please? Try phrasing it in the form of a question rather than an accusation this time, you recycled cliche' machine.

Conservatives: Please stop appearing on TV with these soulless, braindead, commie, zombies.

Whitney Houston did NOT go multiple IMO. She has multiple people going in to see doctors saying I have anxiety and cannot sleep. Multiply that by 20 people in her entourage and you have a medicine cabinet full of prescription drugs. I am not saying that is what occurred but it is possible. Anyone human being at any time can do harm to themselves. No amount of govt regulations can stop it from happening. What it does do is put more intrusion into peoples lives. I would suspect most people do not want more of this.

Santorum won't have a spine in the presidency, nothing like Gingrich. The only difference is they are both more conservative than Romney. Other than that, they are worlds apart. Gingrich has about ten times the knowledge Little Ricky has, even Rick knows that. I guess he'll be able to milk those three little states for a couple more weeks. It'll give Romnipet some time to beat him up for a while. Gingrich is going to come from behind and pull this off. Go Newt!! 2012 Victory!!
