Oh shit, I hadn't considered the idea that Dan might be gay.

HA! That's awesome. Even after all these years of being online, people are still seeing it. We need to keep it number one on Google search.

What would you expect from someone who's searching for Santorum's website?

Dan, you really need to start updating the site again.

What's the "something"? You could be gay AND something. Think of that!

@ 8, why? It's doing its job fine. The longer it stays a top-googled site without an update, the more profound the effect it has.

I'm pretty sure Santorum is in the closet, wishing Dan was too.

@10 because updates will cause it to be linked to more and draw more attention to it which is kind of the point, right?

#9: Indeed. If one is gay and something, or a multi-faceted website admin/content manager one could be a Spreading Santorum Sanctum Factotum!

Best of all, this dude is going to forward the link to his friends, saying, "Check this out, it's nasty!"

@ 12, google "santorum" by itself, then google "Rick Santorum" and see what you get. What I see tells me it's doing just fine.

I'd venture a guess that the average out gay person has much more of a "life" than the average Santorum supporter.

I hope you thanked him for doing his part to keep the ratings up.

The fact that both links in this post point to the same site is a delicious little detail. Nice touch, Dan!

Unless there's a lot of "fuck you, homo fag" remarks that got edited out, I would think this is a fake.

busman1994 32
Also, nowhere on the site does it talk about who made it... How deep did he have to dig to find out Dan started it?
Posted by busman1994 on May 6, 2011 at 7:10 PM
33
No, Santorum is not in the closet. The man is truly a hate-filled bigot who delights in trampling on other lives. He is a scum-bag politician and I think Dan's site is only a tiny bit of what he deserves.

@32

There are links to Savage Love pages all over the site. Not much digging required.

YES! If we know about this one idiot who got fooled into clicking through, you know there are dozens more that didn't write in.

Totally.
We Faggots have such a rich, full existence.
Trolling Santorum, for one thing- following his every move, making snarky comments about his every move, clicking furiously to keep our frothy feces in everyone's face; it's a rich, full existence; oy!
Then there is the congratulating ourselves for being so awesomely clever and smart. That is icing on the cake.

Yeah, Santorum is such a douchebag lying scummy weasel he must be gay, is that it Willie?

Great Work!
We've got to keep spreading the word to average Americans that gay sex involves getting someones shit all over you. Its a real selling point.

May I just add my voice to "a job well done, Dan" and to everyone that helped keep this alive.

I have to agree with those people who are telling you to update the site. No doubt Santorum's people are paying SEO companies much moneys to figure out how to knock Spreading Santorum off the top of Google. Without new content, they'll succeed... and that would be a tragedy.

@42 How are you enjoying exile? Anyway since no one ever bothered to explain it to you, straight couples can have anal sex too. I know, I know, it's a real SHOCKER! Heh, heh, get it? Shocker?

Katie B 49
For me, 'santorum' works so much better as a term for that frothy mixture because it has a sort of Latin, medical-tinged ring to it. It honestly sounds like a word in you would come across in the board game Balderdash.
Posted by Katie B on May 7, 2011 at 9:14 AM
Womyn2me 50
Oh, Dan is an 'or something' alright!

Thanks, that reminded me to google and click, thus increasing the Frothy Mixes google problem and the opportunities for Rick's blood pressure to go up.

from motherjones: "If Rick Santorum wants to make a $5 million donation to [the gay marriage group] Freedom to Marry, I will take it down. Interest starts accruing now." Santorum may want to consider Savage's offer. Otherwise, he's kinda screwed.

BEG 55
@49 it does! In fact at this point I do small double takes when reading something about the actual person. Sort of from wait, what, ooh nasty name to have, to oh right, fuck yeah. This played out especially well the other day in an article about his wife, so I had no "Rick" to clue me in faster ;)

FOOL! Mr. Savage is gay AND something!
Posted by DRF on May 7, 2011 at 7:31 PM

BEG @ 55: I do the same thing. When I see his name I think "Ewwww. Oh wait, that's the person."
