Sorry, folks, but Santorum is right, as Rush, Levin, Malkin, and many others are saying. Freedom is the main issue here in this campaign. Romney has basically said in not so many words, but inferences, that the economy is first and he will not change much else. His campaign is already putting out notices that high gas prices and other entrenched things will probably continue on. If our freedoms continue to erode and are not dealt with it will not matter what economic plan they try. Freedom is a LOT more important than economics. We have almost nothing left to lose. When that final nail is in place, you can have the best economic plan but it will be too late. This is what the founding fathers feared, that we would exchange freedom for economic security. They are handing it to you on a silver platter and we are jumping at it. This is insane. There will be no real economic gains without true freedom. Don’t be duped! Many in the GOP have fallen for the carrot of economics, forgetting that without freedom it is just that, a carrot dangled in our faces, but meaningless. That’s why the “It’s the economy, stupid!” is so powerful. When everybody is on the bandwagon for the economy, freedoms disappear right under our noses. Wake up! Smell the carrot and reject it.

Freedom IS an economic plan.

We should try it.

Similar to Santorum, it seems your comment doesn't say that.

Or maybe they took his comment out of context.

Anyway, freedom equals jobs.
