Santorum...

[Berserker]

I wasn't going to start a topic about him, but I just read his latest comments and I just had to.. This is a rant.

"What a snob!" ... "I understand why he wants you to go to college," Santorum said, speaking about the president. "He wants to remake you in his image. I want to create jobs so people can remake their children into their image, not his."

Seriously? The president wants to send you to college to make you his minion? What is he, Satan? Since when is getting educated a bad thing? OMFG!!!

Last night Romney gave his stump speech about the "trees are the right height in Michigan", again. Does he ever say anything of value? Oh, and when he went to the NASCAR race, he was quoted as saying (paraphase) "That he doesn't watch NASCAR, but he's friends with a lot of owners." If he never had to speak he might just win.

As far as Santorum goes, he is full of rediculous quotes:
Quote: "If the Supreme Court says that you have the right to consensual [gay] sex within your home, then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest, you have the right to adultery. You have the right to anything. Does that undermine the fabric of our society? I would argue yes, it does. ... That's not to pick on homosexuality. It's not, you know, man on child, man on dog, or whatever the case may be. It is one thing." (AP interview, April 7, 2003)

Quote: "The question is — and this is what Barack Obama didn't want to answer — is that human life a person under the Constitution? And Barack Obama says no. Well if that person — human life is not a person, then — I find it almost remarkable for a black man to say, 'We're going to decide who are people and who are not people.'" (CNS News interview, Jan. 19, 2011)

Quote: "Would the potential attraction to Mormonism by simply having a Mormon in the White House threaten traditional Christianity by leading more Americans to a church that some Christians believe misleadingly calls itself Christian, is an active missionary church, and a dangerous cult?" (Santorum's Philadelphia Inquirer column, Dec. 20, 2007)

Quote: "All the people who live in the West Bank are Israelis, they're not Palestinians. There is no 'Palestinian.' This is Israeli land." (Campaign stop in Iowa, Nov. 18, 2011)

Quote: “To say that people of faith have no role in the public square? You bet that makes you throw up. What kind of country do we live that says only people of non-faith can come into the public square and make their case?”
“That makes me throw up and it should make every American who is seen from the president, someone who is now trying to tell people of faith that you will do what the government says, we are going to impose our values on you, not that you can’t come to the public square and argue against it, but now we’re going to turn around and say we’re going to impose our values from the government on people of faith, which of course is the next logical step when people of faith, at least according to John Kennedy, have no role in the public square."

The last one is fairly new, not really soundbite worthy (except for "throw up") and loses a bit without knowing the actual JFK Speech. Both the speech and Santorum's objection are too long to post, but Santorum's concern is actually the opposite of what the pro-diversity JFK was talking about.

Yup, and Ron is painted as the crazy. At least he comprehends the difference between Freedom and Liberty, Santorum does not.

I have to agree with you, of the 4, Ron seems to be the only one who's head is set straight on his shoulders.

Mind you, I still like Obama better ;)

Well, those big ears help keep his head balanced. Obama's my second choice, followed by Newt. Newt hates everything, there is something I respect about that.
