Spreading Santorum



Somehow I've managed to overlook the exceptionally gritty, but hilarious and poignant Dan Savage . My friend Rob quoted his definition of santorum when referring to the first class asshole Senator whom inspired the definition. I sometimes disagree with Savage's politics (he aptly skewers right wing hypocrites, but is strangely hawkish on the middle east), but do appreciate his candor (and there's plenty of that to spare...). Click on the links at your own peril, as this guy pulls no punches, whether doing general commentary, giving sex advice in his column Savage Love, or parodying a book by arch-moralist (that is right wing lingo for hypocrite) Robert Bork. You can also catch his bits on This American Life from their archive (if you haven't listened to this show, the site has a handy list called our favorites, which is a great place to start).
