I really don't get you Newt supporters?????

Some of you spend all day, every day tearing down Rick Santorum....

..and very little effort for your own candidate.

If Newt is so wonderful........why do you feel threatened by Santorum?

What earthly pleasure does it give you to make fun of him , his wife, his children...what he wears....and everything else you don't like about him.

I get it----you don't like him.

But what kind of mindset enjoys verbally bruising, kicking and spitting at another man or his family?

I don't do that to Newt, and have no intention of doing so.

What gives?

Are you being obtuse on purpose? Or do you just don’t get it?

To say we are tearing down RS’ family is perhaps the stupidest thing I’ve seen on the internet in, well, hours. Now, we think it’s a bit shameless how the family is being used as a prop. We think it is beneath contempt to try and compare RS to Sarah or Reagan. And we think it’s almost comical how many in Santorum nation swoon over things that don’t make a tinkers damn worth of a difference. Which may be you, BTW.

But no one is tearing down his family. We are capable of looking past the critical issue of how picturesque The White House Christmas Card greeting would look with clan Santorum in there. We face much bigger issues, including a general electorate that will REALLY get nasty.

Oh, I don't “feel” threatened at ALL by Santorum. He is simply a fraud and phony, who has duped the ignorant voters in the party, like yourself.

His record is clear, many of us have repeatedly pointed it out, yet you remain brain dead by choice. That's your deal. You support who you like. But stop the Religious purity facade and stick to the facts. And don't fault those of us who look for the truth as well as the real facts.

And stop with the guilt trip. We are not making “fun” of Santorum over the things you claim. We are merely illustrating the mundane and superficial image you are trying to sell the rest of us, when the threat that we all face is completely ignored or overlooked.

**************************

Enough. I didn’t kick, spit or bruise his family. I commented on his family as he uses them as part of his campaign. I wonder about Bella because I don’t see her, it is a big empty hole. I find that sad, I commented.

That isn’t an insult but it is funny that Santorum feels no problem using the family but if anyone comments—all L breaks loose. He talks up family and family values and if someone holds a different view on family, holy cow!

I have commented often that I think it cruel Obama didn’t wait until his children were older to run, he’s a young man. I think living in the bubble that is the White House with all the Secret Service up your rear 24/7 is a terrible way for children to grow up.

*I have an opinion*, I comment...I’ve not said people must live the way I believe but when they are running to be my president or are my president—I think I am allowed an opinion and the ability to comment.

They certainly have no problem telling me how they want my family to live or signing into law things that have direct consequences for my family.

A comment on difference of opinion about parenting, which are a few thoughts typed out on a forum, or words hanging in the air for a split second. They will go to bed and wake with my words causing no change to their lives.

I usually don’t get too nasty about Santorum, though if one doesn’t post glowing comments or articles about the man, that seems to be considered an attack.

I do admit that last night and today I have been a bit more biting—I have had a bellyful of Santorum camp and their calls for Gingrich to drop. Then Santorum and camp give all sorts of contradicting statements about doing it. It is spineless, weaselly and lawyer like.

Also, Santorum camp was whining about Romney camp disenfranchising primary voters by touting delegates. What the heck does Santorum and camp think THEY are doing, asking Gingrich to step aside? That more strongly takes away choice for voters. Psssh...

I am sure if Santorum made it to the WhiteHouse that Amadenajad will only ever speak kindly of Santorum, his sweater vest and family. Nope, Santorum and pals won’t need a thicker skin. No sir!
