I think Santorum’s comments were quite naive.

How can he say that Obama, or any president for that matter, has cided one way every single time. You can’t.

Santorum is a light weight. Sorry folks, he is. Why waste money on him?

I’m going with Newt. I plan to send him money before NH. Iowa means nothing. Have they ever picked the winner?

I guess the same way Obama can claim credit for the death of OBL. Does anyone think that the result would have been different regardless of who was in the WH? Finding and killing OBL was the culmination of years of intelligence gathering and planning.

I have to agree with you nikos. Santorum, along with Bachmann, are the two worst choices, IMO, and they would be handily defeated by Obama. My personal choice is Rick Perry. He's got more executive experience than all the other candidates combined, and a sterling record of job creation. But Newt would also be a good choice. And both of them can defeat Obama.

Obama is destroying America. Obama is weak, extremely weak.
But that is not the biggest problem. The Obama administration is making America weak.

Santorum was right in his comments. Georgie Stephie is simply an Obama stooge.

"How can he say that Obama, or any president for that matter, has sided one way every single time. You can’t."

Did you even read the transcript? Here's the meat of it:

SANTORUM: George, on every single contingency that has come up under his administration, the two things you mentioned, and are always mentioned by Obama defenders, are things that were in place when he was in office, when he came into office. They were missions that were defined. He's simply gone ahead and continued to execute those missions.

STEPHANOPOULOS: But, Senator is that true? When Osama bin Laden was alive when President Obama took office. He's dead now.

SANTORUM: Yeah. Well, that's right. But that was a mission that was already decided. policy to kill Osama bin Laden and to kill al Qaeda and to treat them as enemy combatants. The President did not change that policy. But that was not a policy or problem that came up under his watch. The ones that did come up under his watch, Iran, Egypt, Syria, Honduras, you can go down the list. Poland. The U.K., the Czechs. Ask all of them whether- Israel, whether we've been a good ally, one you could stand by. And look at the ones who have been enemies to the United States. And we have appeased and pandered. This is a President that has gotten it wrong whenever time there's been a decision to be made, whether it's in the interest of the United States, when a contingency came up under his watch, he's blown it.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Well, you have quite a list there. We're going to have to follow up another time.

Yeah, right, like they did with Obama.....
