This fetus did not grow into a full term baby. Perhaps there was something wrong with him? That said, nature has a way of culling out what is not healthy.Physicians and scientists can attest to this. Re.Santorum and spouse,this is the craziest thing I've ever heard of, I believe they are both certifiably mentally ill. I can understand them grieving over their loss, but their behavior in the matter is beyond ridiculous. Why could they not simply cut their losses, bury the fetus in a tiny grave, and get on with their lives? It seems these good Christians are not quite as accepting of God' s will as say Job, or for that matter as Jesus was. Or perhaps this miscarriage was the Devil's doing? I can't pretend to know, but I will be glad to never see the name Santorum on line or in print again.

Thanks, Prommie. Since this person is still in a position of power it must be fact that extreme right wing Republicans are in control of many government offices. (to myself: WAKE UP WOMAN!) The whole scenario is sick, disgusting, and frightening. LIke the Duggar's media down fall, Santorum and wife's behavior, which is beyond bizarre, may cause him to be laughed out of office. At any rate, we can hope so.

Q: How many dead Santorum babies does it take to change a light bulb?

A: None, because those goddamn pig-tail compact fluorescent bulbs never burn out!

I got pregnant twice and I used contraception (diaphragm) let's just say *religiously*. When I did want a child it hilariously took a year to make it happen. Let it go, people fuck. You can make all kinds of living things out of a hunk flesh these days.

I felt sorry for them at first and was all "however they deal with it is up to them" until they started working for some serious political points. When it got to Daddy and the partial birth abortion vote I was so disgusted I wondered if they'd maim an existing child if it garnered the precious handicapped childs' parent vote.

Is little Gabriel available to date Barbara Bush's fetus-in-a-jar? That'd guarantee a White House wedding!

Santorum stories always descend from Ecchh to Horrible Weeping Noises pretty quickly.
