Santorum And Santorum's Critics -- A Perfect "Union"?
In National Review Online, the anti-gay marriage senator argues against a "right to privacy."
Meanwhile, across the Left side of the blogosphere (like here and here and here), various Santorum critics demonstrate they essentially agree with him by publically outing his communications director, Robert Traynham -- who admits that he was "out" to his boss anyway.
He apparently told Santorum three years ago -- when the outing on the left started up. Now, Santorum didn't tell Traynham to hit the road -- so, is that supposed to make him some sort of hypocrite? And would the left critics be much happier if Traynham had been fired (as opposed to apparently having been promoted a couple of times since he outed himself)?
The outers had a political point to be made. Just what it is, we can only imagine.
