http://www.religiondispatches.org/dispatches/sarahposner/5764/jews_and_christians_for_santorum/A new website, and a new robocall in Ohio, is claiming that Christians and Jews are against Mitt Romney and for Rick Santorum, mostly because Romney is for your kid's male teacher wearing a dress and heels to school, and Santorum is for "social sanity." Here's the text of the robocall, via the website JewsandChristianstogether.org:
Hi, my name is Brian Camenker; I'm a Jew from Massachusetts. And, this is Darcy Brandon; I'm a Christian from California. If you believe as we do that marriage and sexuality should only be between a man and a woman, please help us stop Mitt Romney. As Governor, Romney signed "Gay Youth Pride Day" declarations, promoted homosexuality in our elementary schools, and unconstitutionally ordered state officals to make Massachusetts Americas first same-sex marriage state. Romney supports open homosexuality in the military, the appointment of homosexual judges, and the ENDA law, making it illegal to fire a man who wears a dress and high heels to work, even if hes your kids teacher. When you vote tomorrow, please vote for social sanity and Rick Santorum, NOT for homosexuality and Mitt Romney. Rick Santorum is the ONLY candidate who can be trusted to uphold traditional marriage, a straight military, and the rights of American children to have both a mother and a father. This message paid for by Jews and Christians Together.ORG and not authorized by any candidate. To get the FACTS before you vote, visit Jews and Christians Together.ORG
Camenker is a longtime anti-gay activist in Massachusetts.

it's not something I imagine is going to appear in real life, unfortunately.
I'd just add one sentence: Search for Santorum on the internet and see for yourself.

This is disgusting, not that I'm a fan of Mitt either.
And the words 'Santorum' and 'sanity' do not belong in the same sentence; or indeed within ten million light years of each other.
