It’s strange that Santorum doesn’t seem to understand the crucial state-federal divide bequeathed to us by the framers of our Constitution, inasmuch as it is precisely that difference that underlies his own point that states could ban contraception if they wanted to. Of course they can. States could outlaw purple hats, pogo sticks or Gummi bears under our Constitution! We rarely see such silly state laws because the people don’t want them. But the Constitution written by James Madison, et al, does not prevent a state’s elected representatives from enacting them.

Additional quotes by Ann Coulter

The Democrats are giving aid and comfort to the enemy for no purpose other than giving aid and comfort to the enemy. There is no plausible explanation for the Democrats' behavior other than that they long to see U.S. troops shot, humiliated, and driven from the field of battle. They fill the airwaves with treason, but when called to vote on withdrawing troops, disavow their own public statements. These people are not only traitors, they are gutless traitors.
