Santorum claims his ‘filthy’ Google results ‘have an impact on the country’
• RawStory.com
Republican
presidential candidate Rick Santorum no doubt dislikes that he isn't
topping any recent polls of the 2012 field, but he may dislike the thing
that tops search results of his name even more. And now, he's asking
search giant Google to do something about it. Sex columnist Dan Savage famously campaigned to redefine the then-senator's name in 2003. Nearly a decade later, the effects of Savage's prank remain: the top Google result for "santorum" is spreadingsantorum.com, which defines "santorum" as "the frothy mix of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex. 2. Senator Rick Santorum."
In a Tuesday interview with Politico, Santorum revealed that he had asked Google to fix the persistent Google bomb, and theorized that the company harbored an agenda against him.
“I suspect if something was up there like that about Joe Biden, they’d get rid of it,” Santorum said. “If you're a responsible business, you don't let things like that happen in your business that have an impact on the country.”

I find it interesting that "poobah"would talk our both sides if his *a**. Are you a one of the sweet things that inhabit San F**ncisco??? I mean what the hell are you and this article saying??? You accuse the man of being/doing the very thing that hobo-sexuals do, and then want someone, anyone to side with you.
Take the time to look at the life style of the hobo-sexual and consider that most drug users, carriers of STD, and aids infected humans are hobo-sexuals and where does that leave the rest of the world. We disagree with you, and we are called the filth that you generate???
The man, by behaving in ways directly contradictory to the teachings of Jesus, is obviously an agent of the anti-christ. Also, he does not understand our government or the constitution or even the free market, or he would not be attempting to tell a business that it should change how it operates just because he does not like the results and when he is not a customer. In addition, his anti gay stance is just bigotry. Worse, he wants to enshrine such bigotry in our constitution.
There is a solution. If his right wing followers/friends were technologically literate, and not lazy, then they could visit the web and make links and change the results. I guess that they just do not care.
