Some day, elections will be decided on the internet. Whoever gets the most hits, the most “likes,” whoever can accumulate the most friends and followers, will win. I’m not saying that’s a good thing, I’m not saying that’s a bad thing, but I am saying that anybody who runs
Santorum's concession speech, when he lost his Senate seat
for public office in the future, in the U.S. or anywhere else, had better be internet savvy.
Witness the case of poor Rick Santorum. He has this little problem with Google. See, if you google “Santorum” the first thing you will see is a definition of the word santorum: The frothy mix of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex.
That frothy mix is, in fact, named after the ex-Senator and current Republican presidential candidate. He is an anti-gay extremist who has compared gay sex to bestiality, and that is why columnist Dan Savage hosted a contest to find some disgusting thing to name after him. The word stuck, partly because it was a substance in need of a word, and partly because gay people, on the average, are more internet savvy than Rick Santorum. He didn’t notice the problem and start complaining about it until way after it was too late.
Recently, he made things worse by complaining to Google about it. They said it wasn’t their fault, they just tally the number of hits. And news of his complaint pushed the hits up even higher. You’ve got to admit, it’s pretty funny.
I don’t feel too bad for Rick Santorum, but I do feel kind of bad for his family. Especially when you think of Rick Santorum’s second google problem. That is that when you go to Google images and type in Rick Santorum, you will immediately see the picture above.
I’m glad they will never be America’s first family, but really, Rick. You should not only get out of politics immediately, you should probably move to someplace where nobody knows you (like maybe Guatemala or Azerbaijan) and change your family name. For the sake of your children.
