Top story on Drudge as I write this. And to think, some people accuse him of being pro-Romney.
Satan has his sights on the United States of America! Republican presidential hopeful Rick Santorum has declared.
Satan is attacking the great institutions of America, using those great vices of pride, vanity, and sensuality as the root to attack all of the strong plants that has so deeply rooted in the American tradition.
This is a spiritual war. And the Father of Lies has his sights on what you would think the Father of Lies would have his sights on: a good, decent, powerful, influential country the United States of America. If you were Satan, who would you attack in this day and age?
He attacks all of us and he attacks all of our institutions.
Rush Limbaugh defended him half-heartedly on his show today, noting that the media thought it was cutesy-poo when evil clown Hugo Chavez compared Bush to the devil a few years ago but conceding that Santorum will have to deal with it. Hell have to answer it. I dont know. Its just not the kind of stuff you hear a presidential candidate talk about. At the Post, John Podhoretz wonders if the best replacement for a president who sometimes seems to look down on Americans is
a president who sometimes seems to look down on Americans:

And which lies would those be?
Also Newt is a Catholic too...would he not believe the same thing?
actually, the speech is one available for downloading as an mp3 at the AveMaria University site, so someone must have given Drudge a “headsup”... But of course he wasn’t giving a political speech but a religious one.
Gee you are angry.
I suggest that you pick up the nearest copy of the King James Bible and read it, beginning with the book of Genesis and paying particular attention to the story of the Serpent and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.
I believe all other religions have Satanic origins otherwise I wouldn’t be a Christian as religions are not equal and if you believe in one religion, you believe in that one, absolutely and exclusively!
Go Rick!
Do you believe that Satan is omnipresent? Is he everwhere, like God, or does he have to travel from one place to another? Is he omniscient, like God? Does he know your name?
I don’t know why so many Christians think of Satan as and evil god. The Bible teaches no such thing.
That should read: “I dont know why so many Christians think of Satan as an evil god.”
"In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. "
Answer the questions, friend: Do you believe that Satan is omnipresent? Is he everywhere, like God, or does he have to travel from one place to another? Is he omniscient, like God? Does he know your name?
I have read the texts you cite. Several times. Nothing there suggests that Satan is the evil counterpart of God.
Newt hasn’t lied about any of the candidates. He has a record to run on. RS is a two bit former senator who has no accomplishments on his record - he just brags like he does. His self righteousness is repulsive. And the fact he has to lie about another candidate to promote himself should send alarms off to ANYONE that has any truth in him. I see it doesn’t - so it shows the type that are drawn to him. They embrace lies/deception.
If you are supporting Rick - why don’t you know what he has said. Aren’t you paying attention to what he has said and done? Shame on you.
Specifics please.
AGAIN!! He’s your candidate - why do you support him if you don’t know what is saying/doing. If you are really concerned about our country you would already KNOW IT. Get educated - you must be used to be spoon fed info and lack interest to learn by yourself. No wonder you support slick rick.
Rick, IMHO, comes off best in longer speeches and interviews when he can go into more depth. He's got plenty! When, at 20 weeks gestation an ultrasound showed his son had a 'fatal birth defect' they didn't accept that but chased down experts and actually had in utero fetal surgery and corrected it! Such surgery would have been in its infancy then and very rare. Alas, Karen's uterus became infected as a complication, she became life threateningly ill, went into labor prematurely and their child, Gabriel, only lived two hours. I'd only know bits of the story, not including the fetal surgery, until hearing this speech. The families reaction to this tragedy is all the more understandable when you realize it was a double tragedy, with an alas fleeting miraculous save interposed. To be happy and optimistic and full of faith after first Gabriel and now Bella makes him worthy of Job. He can take whatever the world can throw at him, he's already lived the Old Testament.
santorum is on the list.
The Antichrist will not be so called; otherwise he would have no followers. He will not wear red tights, nor vomit sulphur, nor carry a trident nor wave an arrowed tail as Mephistopheles in Faust. This masquerade has helped the Devil convince men that he does not exist. When no man recognizes, the more power he exercises. God has defined Himself as “I am Who am,” and the Devil as “I am who am not.”
Nowhere in Sacred Scripture do we find warrant for the popular myth of the Devil as a buffoon who is dressed like the first “red.” Rather is he described as an angel fallen from heaven, as “the Prince of this world,” whose business it is to tell us that there is no other world. His logic is simple: if there is no heaven there is no hell; if there is no hell, then there is no sin; if there is no sin, then there is no judge, and if there is no judgment then evil is good and good is evil. But above all these descriptions, Our Lord tells us that he will be so much like Himself that he would deceive even the elect—and certainly no devil ever seen in picture books could deceive even the elect. How will he come in this new age to win followers to his religion?
The pre-Communist Russian belief is that he will come disguised as the Great Humanitarian; he will talk peace, prosperity and plenty not as means to lead us to God, but as ends in themselves. . . .
. . . The third temptation in which Satan asked Christ to adore him and all the kingdoms of the world would be His, will become the temptation to have a new religion without a Cross, a liturgy without a world to come, a religion to destroy a religion, or a politics which is a religion—one that renders unto Caesar even the things that are God’s.
In the midst of all his seeming love for humanity and his glib talk of freedom and equality, he will have one great secret which he will tell to no one: he will not believe in God. Because his religion will be brotherhood without the fatherhood of God, he will deceive even the elect. He will set up a counterchurch which will be the ape of the Church, because he, the Devil, is the ape of God. It will have all the notes and characteristics of the Church, but in reverse and emptied of its divine content. It will be a mystical body of the Antichrist that will in all externals resemble the mystical body of Christ. . . .
. . . But the twentieth century will join the counterchurch because it claims to be infallible when its visible head speaks ex cathedra from Moscow on the subject of economics and politics, and as chief shepherd of world communism.

You are dodging my question-—I asked you twice how Santorum lied about Newt. YOU made the assertion, now its up to YOU to prove it. Not me.
I bet Drudge didn’t link the vid of the Santorum speech.

Meanwhile, back at the pulpit:
The Messianic Obama, claims that Jesus told him to tax the rich.
Forgot to ping all and to the usual suspects who want to know what Drudge was referring to (since I didn’t see him link it):
