Guess he doesn't know abortions are LEGAL...
Rick Santorum Says He’d Criminally Charge Abortion Providers
4:47 pm, February 18th | by Amy Tennery
The tally of utterly bizarre comments coming out of the Rick Santorum camp this past week or so is not short. There was Santorum’s assertion that women in combat would create problems with their “more unique” emotions. Then there was Santorum campaign supporter Foster Friess’ claim that women should just stick two Bayer aspirin between their knees as birth control.
Yep, it’s been a weird few days.
But an old video of Santorum that’s resurfaced, who, let’s reiterate, is a real person who might actually have a credible shot at clinching a party nomination, might be among the most outrageous.
The 2011 clip, which Buzzfeed dug up, shows Santorum on “Meet The Press.” In it, he claims that abortion-providing doctors should face legal consequences:
“I believe that life begins at conception. And that that life should be guaranteed under the constitution… I would advocate that any doctor that performs an abortion should be criminally charged for doing so.”
This, of course, raises a crucial question — one that Jezebel brought up: if he’d criminally charge abortion doctors, what would he do to doctors who provide birth contol?
