Will Santorum Ban Working Mothers from his Administration?

The top story on Glenn Beck’s news site The Blaze reports on a possible case of media bias against Rick Santorum. On Sunday’s Meet the Press, Santorum was challenged by host David Gregory on whether he’d hire working mothers:
David Gregory: Let me ask you one more question about women. If you are President of the United States, and women want to work in your administration. Do single women without children only need apply? Are you going to respect the decision of women to come work for you if that’s the choice they make, or would they be somehow held by radical feminists?
Gregory was riffing on Santorum’s own statement from his 2005 book It Takes a Family, as quoted in The Washington Post last week:
Radical feminists have been making the pitch that justice demands that men and women be given an equal opportunity to make it to the top in the workplace.
Later that day, when ABC host George Stephanopoulos asked Santorum about the quotation, Santorum seemed taken aback and unfamiliar with the quotation.
