Please sign Governor Dean's petition calling for Senator Santorum's resignation after his divisive comments last week, equating homosexuality with a list of criminal acts including adultery and child molestation. I signed the petition saying: "Expression of uninformed personal bias and opinions that further intolerance are unacceptable from a person in public office." My friend John-Michael wrote: “I expect leaders to promote respect; I also hope for them to regard the gay and lesbian community as human beings. Mr. Santorum's comments are offensive and inappropriate -- they clearly communicate his lack of concern and lack of awareness. I also stand with Howard Dean and call for Senator Santorum to resign. . . . I would challenge the leaders of national proportion to use their office to promote inclusiveness and pluralism.”
