“I believe that faith and religion play a critical role in the political life of our nation” is not the same as “the church should play a role in the operation of the government”.
I know the answer, but maybe some don’t. It’s always helpful to remind people that we’ll never ever get basic fairness from the MSM. I watched 20 minutes of CNN this morning, and Suzanne Malveaux informed me that Republicans were wrong to criticize Obama`s apology to Afghanistan, Republicans have no solutions to high gas prices, and tapping emergency oil reserves might be a good thing. Imagine how lucky I felt to have CNN telling me what was happening, and how to feel about it.
The primaries are not really a contest. If our candidate “wins” you should rally behind him/her. If our candidate is going to lose we’ll get a new one. Screw you. You’re just votes to us.
Regardless of what Santorum meant, or what the Establishment Clause means it is a political blunder. Rick opens his mouth, and instead of spending a week talking about things Obama is vulnerable on (jobs, growth, debt, gas prices) the media is going to go on a week long tangent about the separation of church and state. Just like they did with the Satan comment and the contraception comment.
