This came after the statment that In his opinion right to privacy is not part of the constitution.
That's not Santorum's opinion... its a fact. Grab a copy of the constitution and try to find it. It's not there. The "right to privacy" was established by court cases and was a natural evolution of our constitutional rights.

Please people. :rolleyes: [/b]
No, the word "privacy" isn't in there. However, you can see the idea in several of the first ten amendments (the 4th and 9th being the most glaring examples, imo):

4th Amendment: The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

9th Amendment: The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
