Rick Santorum accused the media of a double standard Friday morning for focusing on the remarks of his Super PAC donor Foster Friess about contraception, saying the media defended then-Sen. Barack Obama from accusations relating to Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
"Look, this is what you guys do. You don't do this with President Obama," Santorum said to CBS "This Morning host Charlie Rose. "Hold on Charlie, when you quote a supporter of mine who tells a bad off-color joke and somehow I am responsible for that, that is gotcha."
"In fact, with President Obama, what you did was you went out and defended him against someone who sat in a church for, for 20 years and defended him, that he can't possibly believe what he listened to for 20 years," Santorum continued. "It's a double standard I'm going to call you on it. The fact is, I'm here in Detroit and we're focused on the economy and jobs. We're going to continue doing it."
