In April 2003, Sen. Rick Santorum came under a lot of fire for this remark: “If the Supreme Court says that you have the right to consensual (gay) sex within your home, then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest, you have the right to adultery. You have the right to anything.”

Even Santorum wouldn’t have predicted this, though.
