“Didnt Santorum support Medicare Part D?”
Yes, and I did, too, at the time. We all make mistakes. However, I did write my congresscritter a note and say it should only be for VERY LOW income seniors, but even that was a mistake, and I admit it. Santorum and Reagan admit they have made mistakes, too, to their credit.
But if you think Newt hasn’t made some SERIOUS MISTAKES, consider this:
Newt called Paul Ryan’s plan to fix Medicare “radical,” while Rick Santorum embraced it, and said he wanted it to go even farther.
Newt was/is in favor of TARP and cap and trade, and pro-fair doctrine (but that was in the ‘80’s so hopefully Newt changed that position by now).
I dont care about Newt, really. I dont see a difference in how a Newt, Santorum, or Romney Administration will govern. I think they all have the big government itch, just in different areas of the body.
My comment was more on Santorum complaining that Newt and Mitt like the government paying for healthcare, when he himself supported that. It just doesnt seem like a smart thing to bring up.
