Yeah I don’t get too excited one way or the other about endorsements.
Santorum thinks he is some kind of a dictator who can bomb countries without a formal declaration of war just because he is President. Liberal? Maybe but he sure isn’t conservative. He must think Congress is some kind of a potted plant. If he wants to bomb Iran, the first thing he should do is go before Congress and ask for a formal declaration of war.
Mr Santorum may be the only choice left that I could vote for that wouldn’t make me feel like I needed a shower afterwards.
Like eveyone has said about their choice..noone is perfect so neither is Santorum.
Has anyone been able to confirm the report that Paul converted to Islam?
Hah! On the BBC news radio breaks last night in the wee hours, Ben Smith was on yapping about Iowa and how Santorum would never win an election because he’s too conservative for the American people.
Santorum lost his home state by 18 points last time around. There is a heavy stink associated with any incumbent who loses in that kind of landslide defeat. I actually agree with Santorum on most issues and he is a solid conservative in my book, but he will never attract the kind of money needed to truly make him competitive. Few people are going to risk big money on a guy who lost his last re-election bid in such spectacular fashion. And yeah, I think you have a good point - Santorum is very plain and not flashy (I'd call it charismatic) enough for the media.
To put it mildly, and more respectfully than he deserves!
Now we're beginning to see something which I had feared, and which makes me pretty sad. Mullah Paul is going to taint his son with his stench. I like Rand Paul, but have been keeping an eye on him to see how far the fruit falls from the tree.
Thanks for the info.
Paul is a fraud when it comes to spending.
He loads bills up with tons of spending when he knows they will pass, votes against them as says “see I am for cutting spending”.
Why wont he go away.
I don't have any desire to temper what I say about Paul or his idiot followers.
Just sayin’...
LOL...
Bozo wants to know how your like your crow served? I am buying you lunch on Wednesday. We shall see how those 300 people surveys with an 8.5% margin of error pan out for Rick
As I recall, it was a "scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" scenario. Specter was on the Judiciary Committee at the time that Alito and Roberts were nominated. Bush called in a favor to Santorum, and asked him to support Snarlin' Arlen, who would then see to it that Alito and Roberts were approved by the Senate. Santorum was a good Republican and did his Party Leadership's bidding. This act angered Santorum's conservative base and he was thrown under the Republican bus.
If you ask me, I think Santorum was put into a politically self-defeating situation by the Republican Party, but that's just MHO...
>>>Yeah, Arlen Spector wasnt liberal either whos biggest cheerleader was Ricky.
It was out of political pragmatism. Having Spector in the Senate, and on the Judiciary committee gave us Alito & Roberts on the SCOTUS.
It is probably being exaggerated, but I’m going to research it to be sure. You can spin anything to sound awful.
While I don’t agree with it if he did indeed vote this way, none of the candidates can say that they have a perfect voting record when it comes to conservative issues. None of them!
BINGO!!
No kidding!
I have some questions about Paul no one has answered. He has been very anti-Christian the last 10 years. He always takes the Muslim side and is always against Christians. In every case Muslims killed Christians, he thinks it was justified, but in any case Christians killed Muslims, they were never justified. When a Muslim shot people at a military base in Paul’s home state, Paul refused to condemn the person. I couldn’t find any record of support for Christians Paul has made in the last 10 years. If Paul were president, he would have to represent Christians, not just Muslims. He seems to be really anti-Christian.
