Sex advice columnist and outspoken gay rights activist Dan Savage, on his way to the University of North Texas to serve as keynote speaker for a Equity & Diversity Conference this week, took a minute to continue his ongoing feud with GOP presidential candidate Rick Santorum in an interview with the Fort Worth Star-Telegram over the weekend.
Savage's anti-Santorum drive is best remembered by his public campaign to change the definition of the word "Santorum" from the last name of the former Pennsylvania senator to a sexual neologism involving anal sex. In his interview, he admitted that the move was incredibly crass, and said that was the point.
"It's still out there and it is an insanely dirty joke," Savage told the Star-Telegram. "It is crude. It is vile, as are Santorum's comments about gay people."
