Rush Limbaugh on Wednesday gave a signal of approval to Rick Santorum?s explanation of his 2008 ?Satan? comment, calling it a ?pretty good answer,? while warning that there is only one person who poses a threat to the country?s religious liberty: President Barack Obama.
Limbaugh, who had said on his radio show Tuesday that Santorum would have to explain his comments that ?Satan has his sights on the United States of America,? relayed to his listeners the Republican candidate?s response from the campaign trail.

If somehow or another because you?re a person of faith and you believe in good and evil is a disqualifier for president, we?re going to have a very small pool of candidates who can run for president,? which I think is a pretty good answer,? Limbaugh said, according to a transcript of his show.
The conservative radio host charged, ?Do you think Santorum is a threat to your religious liberty? If you do, you are wrong. Barack Obama has already shown that he is a threat to religious liberty. He has already indicated he doesn?t believe in it.?
Limbaugh also cautioned that if the Democratic establishment chooses to treat the discussion of good an evil as ?something odd,? they would only find themselves ?so out of touch with the vast majority of Americans.?
The comments Santorum made at Ave Maria University in Florida years ago went viral after the speech headlined the Drudge Report.
?This is a spiritual war. And the Father of Lies has his sights on what you would think the Father of Lies would have his sights on: a good, decent, powerful, influential country ? the United States of America. If you were Satan, who would you attack in this day and age,? the GOP hopeful said in the summer of 2008. ?He attacks all of us and he attacks all of our institutions.?
Limbaugh took to the airwaves soon after, saying that Santorum will ?have to have an answer for these things when queried.?
Santorum was indeed asked about the remarks Tuesday, and responded by calling the question ?a joke? and ?absurd. Limbaugh said Wednesday that this reaction was ?exactly right.?
?In a political sense, the Democrats or the regime here, if you?re going to try to make an issue out of this good and evil business, you?re going to be in the minority,? he said, noting that the vast majority of Americans believe in the concept of good and evil.
