The Pennsylvania chapter of Donald Wildmon's ultra-conservative American Family Association has warned Rick Santorum that "he needs to be careful" as a result of his ever-evolving stance on intelligent design. Here's how the York Daily Record describes the situation:
A conservative organization that touts itself as a supporter of traditional values blasted Sen. Rick Santorum for his withdrawal of support for the Dover Area School District's unconstitutional intelligent design policy.
"Senator Rick Santorum's agreement with Judge John Jones' decision ... is yet another example of why conservatives can no longer trust the senator," the American Family Association of Pennsylvania said in a news release Friday.
The association's president, Diane Gramley, said Santorum - who is expected to face a tough re-election challenge next year from state Treasurer Robert P. Casey Jr. - should heed her organization's remarks.
"It's a warning that he needs to be careful," Gramley said. "That he's beginning to lose his conservative base."
Uh oh, Rick. The conservatives are beginning to get restless. Here's the
AFA's full press release.
