Rick Santorum has wind up successfully out in support of online internet blacklist and censorship bill Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) . In in consideration of of this revelation (though none should be surprised that a right-winger would categorically support censorship), one cannot keep from but wonder if Dan Savage’s clever subversion of Santorum’s last name into a descriptor of anal sex byproduct might have something to do with it.

How maddening it must be for Santorum to conscious that any search engine query yields his name to describe the admixture of fecal moment and ejaculate. Santorum called Savage’s Google shell uncivil , but one good turn deserves another, Richard.

To remedy the kettle of fish, Santorum asked in September 2011, or perhaps demanded (individuals of Santorum’s symbol never ask) that Google remove the now sullied variant of his last name from search queries. Google, utterly rightly refused, for not only it would it be an inaccurate representation of the internet to do so, but it would have opened a floodgate of claims from others hoping to rub or censor the internet. Santorum even appealed once again to Google recently whilst on the manoeuvres trail, but to no avail.
