Santorum still upset over frothy mixture mess

Poor little Ricky Santorum. No matter how hard he tries, he just can't seem to shake the whole Google nightmare that has been plaguing him since 2003.

The issue: do a Google search on his last name and some of the results will define santorum as "a frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the by-product of anal sex." Gay columnist Dan Savage organized the online campaign to link the graphic sexual term - made up by a Savage fan - to the socially conservative senator’s name because of Santorum's endless attacks on gays.

Santorum now wants Google to step in and change the search results.

“I suspect if something was up there like that about Joe Biden, they’d get rid of it,” Santorum said. “If you're a responsible business, you don't let things like that happen in your business that have an impact on the country. To have a business allow that type of filth to be purveyed through their website or through their system is something that they say they can't handle but I suspect that's not true.”

Google responded saying that it probably could handle the request, but won't.

"Google’s search results are a reflection of the content and information that is available on the web," said a Google spokesperson. "Users who want content removed from the Internet should contact the webmaster of the page directly. Once the webmaster takes the page down from the web, it will be removed from Google’s search results through our usual crawling process."

Mr. Santorum, if you really want to slow the spread of your frothy mixture, you might want to stop talking about it!
