Ever since Sen. Rick Santorum, R-Penn., publicly equated homosexuality and
bestiality, Dan Savage has been turning up the heat on his homophobic
nemesis. First, he organized a contest to name a
sex act after the Republican
senator. Now Savage, the editor of Seattle's The Stranger and one of
altdom's most popular columnists, is taking the fight to Santorum's home
turf. He recently followed the warpath to Philadelphia, where he talked to Philadelphia Weekly about efforts to defeat Santorum's midterm re-election
bid. When questioned about his take-no-prisoners crusade, Savage says, "I
really feel that it's an all-hands-on-deck sort of fucking moment."
