A Sanitarium Made of Gullible Saints.

The wife of a close friend of mine returned from lunch with an older, female, Tea Party supporter and immediately had to tell me all about it.

“She was 100% a Santorum supporter,” my friend’s wife said.

I of course am fascinated by this, so I couldn’t wait to find out two things. “Why?” and, “Did she stay that way?”

You see, my friend’s wife is a no nonsense, salt of the earth, Catholic Tea Party heroine. She’s one of those women without whom the Early West would have ended up as a an American version of Afghanistan. You know, like inner city Detroit, Michigan or the boarded up parts of Kansas City. Those women were as strong as the men, diligent to a fault and made sure that basic values of goodness, hard work and integrity defined their progeny.

“Her entire support for him was about religion. When I asked her what Santorum had actually accomplished to make her think he should/could be President, her example was that he helped stop gay marriage from being stopped or adopted in some state.”

I’ve noticed an inordinate number of religious-ists who continue to present two arguments for Santorum. Namely:

* He’s a good Christian man of strong moral character, and, * Newt Gingrich cheated on his wives

Odd, the numbers I saw were 91 and 90. I will have to recheck that.

Ahh - the 91 for Santorum beat Newt’s average of 90, not the last year.
