Responding to the Supreme Court's decision striking down the Defense of Marriage Act,
Rick Santorum told Andrea Tantaros,

“I’m incredibly disappointed that the Supreme Court would continue a pattern of stepping in and
making decisions that were very clearly left for the public and the Congress to make,” Santorum said.

“The Founding Fathers established a country that said that the people are the ones who get to make
these decisions. Not five unelected people on the Supreme Court.
And the federal government has a right in my mind to define what marriage is.
Just like every state has a right to determine and define what marriage is.
That these are not decisions that were to be implemented by the court.
They’re to be handled by the collective will of the American public,
that’s how our republic functions.
And, when the Supreme Court steps in and says
‘No, we’re the ones who know best how to decide these things,’
I think it’s a real problematic issue in our society.
And whether you’re on the left or on the right,
the idea that a court should have the power to take this power away and freedom away
from the American pubic to make these decisions to me is very, very disconcerting.”
