After Santorum's statements on homosexuality<ref>http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2003-04-23-santorum-excerpt_x.htm</ref> in 2003, Dan Savage urged his readers to find another, less flattering definition for "santorum."  After such a definition was chosen, Savage created a site called spreadingsantorum.com (not appropriate) and had instigated a Google-bombing campaign placing it as the first result given for every search.  Savage later instigated a similar campaign against [[Rick Warren]].
