SANTORUM: SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE 'MAKES ME WANT TO THROW UP' -

Alana Horowitz reports on the Huffington Post:"Rick Santorum on Sunday
took on of separation of church and state."'I don't believe in an
America where the separation of church and state are absolute,' he
told 'This Week' host George Stephanopoulos. 'The idea that the church
can have no influence or no involvement in the operation of the state
is absolutely antithetical to the objectives and vision of our
country...to say that people of faith have no role in the public
square? You bet that makes me want to throw up.'

"The GOP candidate was responding to comments he made last October. He
had said that he 'almost threw up' after reading JFK's 1960 speech in
which he declared his commitment to the separation of church and
state. "Santorum also on Sunday told Meet The Press host David Gregory
that separation of church and state was 'not the founders' vision.'

"The GOP candidate has been doubling down on religious rhetoric in an
effort to court evangelical voters ahead of Super Tuesday. Last week,
he questioned Obama's spiritual beliefs."'[Obama believes in] some
phony ideal, some phony theology ... not a theology based on the
Bible, a different theology,' he said."
