Even Santorum is starting to believe the propoganda spewed ad nauseum by the lame stream media.
Sad really.
He ought to stay on this and lean hard in dismissing these false claims of recovery. Recovery my a$$. Bought gas or hamburger meat lately? Obie is, as usual, lying about the “recovery” that isn’t taking place. BLS lies or misrepresented the unemployment numbers. Don’t count people who have run out of their 99 weeks or whatever the heck it is now for benefits. They are still unemployed just not carried on the rolls any longer. What a load. Shovel ready? Yeah, shoveling you know what.
Just keep in mind that this is left-wing Propaganda from the ComPost.
Contrary to the headline, if you read carefully, Santorum does not say that the economy is getting better, or that it doesn’t matter. He says that THE MEDIA say the economy is getting better. But even if—hypothetically—it does get better, that’s no reason to vote for Obama and the Dems.
Because there is a more basic issue—freedom.
Maybe he’s being a bit too subtle, but no matter what he says, the ComPost will lie about it anyway.
I’m minded of what Mark Steyn says in his recent column on middle-aged Sandra Fluke. Some Republican politicians, such as Arnold, think you can be a conservative economically, but a liberal morally. No, you can’t, because bad morals and government tyranny are not compatible with economic success. Give on one, and you will give on the other.
Nice contrast for Newt.
Rick + Obama “The economy is improving!”
Newt “They’re numbers are baloney.”
Paraphrased of course. Newt is still hammering the point that job growth is anemic, and Obama’s BLS is just dropping people from the calculation of unemployment. I started a thread the other day about February’s deficit being a record high.
What are these signs of recovery? Are new businesses opening? Are workers getting raises? Are high gas prices really a sign of a healthy economy as Obama and his lapdog media claim? Paying out bonuses to CEOs because they put more workers out on the streets and doubled the workload on the employees who survived THIS cut is not a recovery. Using inflation to drive up profits is not a recovery. It’s gotten so bad that even federal gummint employees are not getting pay raises! When Uncle Sugar can’t afford to give his “workers” a raise every six months or so, you know its bad!
No brains, no guts, no vision.
By his own admission.
Whichever way the wind blows...
He must be getting advice from Romney’s people. Or maybe Romney himself.
Santorum, because of his progressive income tax, better fits the Socially-Conservative/Fiscally-Liberal category.
And, an apt poster child for the admonition: "It's the economy stupid"!
Irrelevavant. Romney is going to be the GOP nominee, so it doesn’t matter what Santorum does.
the day after obama is re-elected the economic downturn will continue... with a vengenance...
and pity poor poor pitiful rick for not knowing that
Has he been hitting the economy so far?
Santorum is an establishment stooge, and doesn’t wish to point out that the economy is in freefall.
The media all love his kind of candidate; he helps them with their agenda. (useful idiot)
.
I led the charge identifying Irans nuclear program nine years ago, authored bills to put sanctions to stop it.”
Yea, sure, like he single handedly “authored” the Welfare Reform bill that Newt started in the house.
This guy scares me. He has the potential to be dangerous, if he ever gains the power of the Presidency.
And, especially important, He DID stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night! LOL!
... signs of recovery
Smart move Ricky.
