Rick Santorum has decided to inflict himself, yet again, on our fair nation, running for President a third (I think) time. Now, while I'm not entirely certain what America did to deserve such an honor, clearly God is trying to punish us for some string of transgressions, because otherwise, His chosen candidate, Santorum, would have long ago retired to head up a DC-based family-focused think tank or sell panini presses on late night television.
Not that I begrudge Rick his chance. Although he's not very attractive as a candidate, he did do well last time around, and he has, at least, earned the right to try again. He's out of touch with the voter base (and not just on social issues), he's smarmy and spray-tanned, but the man does do well in Middle America. And that's enough to keep him on the trail. And unlike his compatriot Mike Huckabee, this time around, Rick Santorum won't be welcoming the Duggars,

He’s a retread, a losing retread.
The only thing he can accomplish is to take votes away from a conservative that has a fighting chance.
But maybe that’s the strategy.
Mike Huckabee defends Duggars = SCUMBAG!
Rick Santorum bashes Duggars = SCUMBAG!
Damned if you do, damned if you don’t...
Rick Santorum said this:
“Well, you know, obviously, I’m not privy to what’s going on in someone’s mind,” Santorum said. “Obviously, in my opinion, someone … has a very sick mind who would pursue someone like this. This is clearly a heinous act. You know, there are a lot of people who have a lot of distorted views of reality. It’s a tragic, tragic case.”
But wait. This was in 2012.
“And my heart goes out to the parents, too. I can’t imagine what they’re suffering, losing their son in such a horrific way. All I would say is that, whatever the motive is, it was a malicious one, and a very, very tragic one.”
He’s was knee-jerking about George Zimmerman: the guy who was exonerated because it turns out St. Treyvon was trying to splatter his brains on the sidewalk.
What the boy did is indefensible
Exonerated? How was he exonerated? As far as I know, he was acquitted of what he was charged with. Please provide proof.
But, everybody forgets .. GOD thinks it’s FORGIVEABLE. Why, because HE’s GOD; and it’s HIS desire than none should perish.
AND, NOBODY .. NOBODY .. has bothered to see that he’s changed his whole life. I guess that doesn’t matter.
what did he do
He’s a scummy pervert that has for years been banking off
an enterprise that holds him up as righteous and holy.
I hope they all lose their show and get jobs.
I wonder how long the FRC knew what was going on with Duggar....
Oh, now the true believers are not going to be pleased with that!
Did you say the same when Reagan ran again after finishing second in 1976? Rick almost won in 2012 and if not for Virginia and a few other things, he would have won the nomination. I am for Walker but I refuse to make fun of the second place finisher last round especially since it is just stupid to do.
Rick’s looking for a talk show gig so he wants to look good in the debates so somebody at FOX or the other cable networks might give him a shot.

As with every single crime against others, people in a free society have a right to comment on it when it is in the public square.
Period.
And those who insist that those who learn of this are obligated to silence are no different in any way at all from the people who insisted that those who learned of what happened to Juanita Broderick be silent.
You aren’t different people.
You are cookie cutter copies of each other.
Why would you assume the FRC knew about it at all?
Are you homosexual rights activist with a bug up your ass about the FRC?
Should we get you in contact with an ISIS recruiter so you'll be first in line to behead Duggar?
