"Coming Out" Against Gay Marriage

Stop the presses: Rick Santorum has come out against the California gay marriage ruling. (He also appears slated to become a columnist for the Philly Inquirer's op-ed page.) It's amazing how he talks about gay marriage -- gathering threat, wake-up call, attack on Christianity, "I'm not a bigot, I'm a prophet!" -- pretty much exactly the same way he talks about Islamist jihad...

I was just checking on Santorum's wikipedia entry and found this nugget: "While working at the law firm of Kirkpatrick & Lockhart, he represented the World Wrestling Federation, arguing that professional wrestling should be exempt from federal anabolic steroid regulations because it was not a sport." Clever!
