It really doesn't matter, Santorum will never win the Presidency.
I found this very interesting explanation of the U.S. Constitution--along with the 4th amendment that says Santorum is WRONG on this issue.
No STATE can interfere with the intimate relationship between a Husband & Wife--or between Man & woman on their personal decision as to how many children they want--as it is considered a matter of privacy.
Surging Republican Santorum thinks condoms should be outlawed? - YouTube
Its total bullshit Oreo....
This is what Santorum said about it on Jan 6th
I was asked if I believed in it, and I said, No, Im a Catholic, and I dont. I dont want the government to fund it through Planned Parenthood, but thats different than wanting to ban it; the idea Im coming after your birth control is absurd. I was making a statement about my moral beliefs, but I wont impose them on anyone else in this case. I dont think the government should be involved in that. People are free to make their own decisions.
It's a sad day when some conservatives fall right into the trap that the liberals have made on this issue.
It's such a manufactured issue and I can't believe people are too stupid to realize it.
Griswold says that you cannot make it illegal to USE contraception...it doesn't say it makes it illegal to ban the sale of contraception...or tax the crap out of it, like cigarettes and alcohol.
if youre such a constitutional scholar youll know that the right to privacy established in Griswold in 1965 was what the Court used to justify the Roe decision in 1973. So, Santorum is absolutely right when he argues that there are unintended consequences when the Court oversteps elected legislatures and invents rights.
We deal with a right of privacy older than the Bill of Rights -- older than our political parties, older than our school system. Marriage is a coming together for better or for worse, hopefully enduring, and intimate to the degree of being sacred.
Griswold v. Connecticut
He said the States have a right to do it...he did not say they SHOULD. But he also said it's not constitutional....and that it should be up to the people to decide.

It doesn’t need to say states may not ban the sale of contraceptives, as such a ban would clearly be an idiotic and disastrous policy. States shouldn’t need the threat of a lawsuit to refrain from enacting bad legislation.
if you’re such a constitutional scholar you’ll know that the “right” to privacy established in Griswold in 1965 was what the Court used to justify the Roe decision in 1973. So, Santorum is absolutely right when he argues that there are unintended consequences when the Court oversteps elected legislatures and invents “rights.”
The Court ‘invented’ no rights, it merely acknowledged a right that existed as long as humans have existed:
It’s up to neither the states nor the people to decide; civil rights aren’t determined by majority rule.

Or having them smuggled in for sale in the black market. Likely one of the many reasons why no state would do something so stupid.

True.
But there are a significant number of people who hold the same misguided beliefs, which is quite troubling.
--“The state has a right to do that, I have never questioned that the state has a right to do that," he said. "It is not a constitutional right. The state has the right to pass whtever statutes they have. That's the thing I have said about the activism of the Supreme Court--they are creating rights.
It really doesn't matter, Santorum will never win the Presidency.
The answer is that it depends.
The 10th amendment gives the States the right to do anything not in the jusidiction of the Federal government. Even the Bill of Rights didn't originally apply to the States, it's only been applied to them through the 14th amendment and Case law.
So it would depend on what the State Constitutions said in regards to birth control.
At least it would be without the poor decision of Griswold v. Connecticut in which 7 Justices of the Supreme Court declared it unconstitutional despite the Constitution being completely silent on the issue.
If you believe in following the US Constitution, then GvC is bad case law and yes the States have the right to do so.
Why they would do something as ridiculous as that, I don't know. But there are easy ways to prevent it if the people stay active in their local government as they should. And they can do it without judicial fiat.
So re posting the same crap from Hufferpost is suppose to prove something?
what the hell exactly has your panties all in a bunch? or do you even know?

I suggest more study of the Constitution. Particularly the 4th amendment. Because it doesnt say what you claim it says.

Someone didn't WATCH the above video--he most certainly did say it--it's right there. He states that STATES have the right to BAN birth control devices.

Argue your case with the author of the video on the original post--who states that it is unconstitutional for the STATES to BAN birth control contraceptives.
Watch it again if you have to--because he specifically mentions the U.S. Constitution and the 4th amendment.
