Typical media thinking people are too stupid to recognize sarcasm or ultimate truths.

They can drop it now, he’s not running.

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/03/25/Santorum-Pronounces-Zimmerman-Guilty-Before-Charge

...Admitting that he was “not privy to what’s going on in someone’s mind,” Santorum nevertheless said that Zimmerman, who shot and killed teenager Trayvon Martin while participating in a neighborhood watch last month, “has a very sick mind who would pursue someone like this.” He added that Zimmerman’s motive had been “malicious.”

The mental state of the alleged perpetrator, the motive, and the question of whether he pursued the alleged victim, are both critical in determining guilt. Santorum’s conclusions are consistent with first-degree murder under Florida law...

Santorum should have said "the self-anointed 'smart people'" but we know what he meant and attempts to spin this sarcastic comment by a man not running for office will go nowhwhere.

This could be read as Santorum “taking a jab” at the supposed self-appointed intellectual superiors on the left. The libtards, in plain english.

With the way things are going for the “Establishment” candidate, I’d take my chances with Santorum anyday.

Rick was winning Wisconsin until R and R gave out free subs at the local sandwich shop to undercut his lead. It was a dishonest, underhanded and deceitful move.

Hey media... Rick just kicked you in the scrotum and you are too stupid to realize it. You all are smart like obama is... or even joe biden. Bunch of traitorous dumbasses.

Santorum is very undisciplined - he’s chronically unable to think before he speaks. If Romney loses, and Santorum runs again, I sure hope he can get it together before 2016.

He was putting quotes around the "smart people" comment.

He was actually calling them idiots in a way that would not offend them because they are not smart enough to recognize sarcasm

The only thing Rick Santorum did was screw us out of a real candidate.

I suspect he is being sarcastic.

But since the MSM mistakenly believe themselves to be smart, they simply assumed he must have seriously meant what he said.

"But Santorum also made several notable gaffes along the way."

The corrupt media continues to point out the so-called "gaffes", past and present, of conservatives, as their chosen Great Leader methodically and deliberately destroys the country.

Good grief! Is there no capacity among these so-called "intellectuals" for recognizing sarcasm when it is directed at them?

Guess not!!

Smart they're not, but they can dream, can't they?

I think he is being criticized for using abbreviated language. The full word is “Smart-asses”.
During the 1940 and 1950 the conservatives sometimes derogatorily referred to the “smart” people who cottoned up to the Stalinist as the “intelligentsia”, for example Adlai Stevenson was called an “Egghead”. Hiss and a great many other traitors and “Fellow Travelers” (e.g., Mrs. Roosevelt) were “The Intelligentsia” because they acted as though they knew how to change the world for the better.
HOPE AND CHANGE IS NOT NEW
“Ironically, ..... Lenin is famous for his caustic remark that “[the] intelligentsia is not the ‘brain of the nation’, it is the ‘feces of the nation’”. Wikipedia

Incidentally do you think Obama has given Bill Ayers the franchise to provide the Muslims with the American Flags to burn.

Without a Conservative media to counter the constant streams of pure disinformation running, he is right. Fox News afraid to tell the truth, bending way over backwards to prove how very “fair and balanced” it is, and being owned by the wrong people, doesn’t cut it. Unabashedly Conservative news and educational channels and daily national newspapers are needed. I hear Blaze is running on Dish Network, which hopefully is a start.
