Mrs. Santorum

That's astounding.......considering you would never have voted for him at any time.

He didn't lose by a small margin, it was overwhelming.

"In the November 7, 2006 election, Santorum lost by over 700,000 votes, receiving 41.3 percent of the vote to Casey's 58.7 percent, the largest margin of defeat ever for an incumbent Republican Senator in Pennsylvania.[SUP][36][/SUP] The 18-point defeat was the largest margin of defeat for any incumbent senator since 1980[SUP][37][/SUP] and the largest margin of any incumbent Republican senator ever.[SUP][38][/SUP]"

I wouldn't believe TP if they told me Bill Clinton is a Democrat.

You need to understand one thing from this video. He never says that HE wants to ban abortion. This is what the left does. It's the old bait and switch. They put up something close and some moron thinks it means what he's told it means. It works on stupid people, which explains why the left is predominantly made up of stupid indoctrinated academics and losers.

God you Righties miss the point. People are vetted not just so we know WHAT they think about something specific but HOW they think. One could say there's no problem electing a racist because there are laws against racism so who cares what a racist thinks. Right? WRONG!

The man is a disgusting individual and I look forward to him being thoroughly ripped apart during the coming debates.

I would suggest you stick to talking about topics in which others are allowed to comment. Either that or leave the thread. If someone is going to post nonsense, I have a right to correct that nonsense.

I don't like Santorum, nor do I want to see him on the ticket. That doesn't mean I should just sit by and let the left use the worst thing that could happen to a parent to hammer the guy and his wife. It is beyond pathetic on the part of those who wish to make up complete bullshit like this.

Have you seen Mr. Smith goes to Washington? That's you, that is.

There was an example of this just a few months ago.

"Last November, a 27-year-old woman was admitted to St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix. She was 11 weeks pregnant with her fifth child, and she was gravely ill. According to a hospital document, she had "right heart failure," and her doctors told her that if she continued with the pregnancy, her risk of mortality was "close to 100 percent." The patient, who was too ill to be moved to the operating room much less another hospital, agreed to an abortion. But there was a complication: She was at a Catholic hospital.


"They were in quite a dilemma," says Lisa Sowle Cahill, who teaches Catholic theology at Boston College. "There was no good way out of it. The official church position would mandate that the correct solution would be to let both the mother and the child die. I think in the practical situation that would be a very hard choice to make." But the hospital felt it could proceed because of an exception — called Directive 47 in the U.S. Catholic Church's ethical guidelines for health care providers — that allows, in some circumstance, procedures that could kill the fetus to save the mother. Sister Margaret McBride, who was an administrator at the hospital as well as its liaison to the diocese, gave her approval.


The woman survived. When Bishop Thomas J. Olmsted heard about the abortion, he declared that McBride was automatically excommunicated — the most serious penalty the church can levy."

Incredible! And people wonder why fewer and fewer attend church. Who would want to be associated with such barbarians known as Bishops?

He seems to be doing okay. Look at how popular Bill Clinton is even after being impeached. Obviously, he's getting people to vote for him. He's got you worried.

Dude Santorum is no Bill Clinton. One doesn't have to like or support Clinton to know he is a master politician. Santorum does not have those skills.

Why don't you enthrall us all with your personal philosophy? Are you anti abortion and contraception?

He's doing okay it looks like. If Bill Clinton is such a masterful politician then why didn't he think ahead about the dress he creamed on?

Part of being a master politician is getting yourself out of situations in which you f'd up. How many people could survive what he did and then still retain his level of popularity?

Santorum will be done in no time. He doesn't have the money, national set-up or support to make a serious run. That's just his reality.

That may be, but he's never been impeached. He has no scandal of messing around like Clinton does. I think integrity counts for something in a "master politician", not for your skill at getting out of problems you created all by your lonesome dumb ass self. You like Clinton. Okay. That doesn't make him a "master politician".

Bill Clinton can thank Ross Perot for both of his terms.

Who Santorum? Is that going to help him in this campaign?

It makes him a more "masterful politician" than Bill Clinton. If not for Ross Perot, Clinton would never have been elected or re-elected. Perot took votes away from the right much more than the left. Check it out.

You would really argue Santorum is a better politician than Slick Willie? Yes I'm familiar with the 1992 election it was the first election I could vote in.

I said years ago, on this very forum, that my dream team for the 2012 election would include santorum. The only thing I'm worried about is that he won't be the nominee.

"Messing around" isn't the only scandal that counts with voters. Obama didn't mess around but you still despise him.

More santorum hypocrisy.

"On May 17, 2004, Rick Santorum put out a press release saying, “I will continue to use my position in Senate leadership to push my colleagues to pass meaningful medical liability reform.” But just what has his “leadership” meant for people who are sick and injured by malpractice? Not much.

Back in 1994, when Santorum was in Congress and running for the Senate, he introduced H.R. 3918, which would have capped non-economic damages awarded by juries in medical malpractice cases at $250,000. On February 7, 2003, Senator Santorum said the $250,000 cap set in Congressman Jim Greenwood’s bill was “too low.” The next day, he told The Associated Press that he’d “been hesitant to sign on to any bill that has a cap.” Did something happen to change Santorum from one who authored a bill capping damages for a victim’s pain and suffering into one who couldn’t even sign onto such a bill?

Yes. Reality happened to Rick. In 1999, Santorum’s wife, Karen, filed her own medical malpractice lawsuit against a chiropractor in Virginia, seeking $500,000 in non-economic damages – twice the amount allowed in her husband’s own legislation five years earlier.

Again, it’s the hypocrisy, stupid!

Apparently, Rick Santorum thinks the rules ought to be different for him than for everyone else. Because even if he once fought to keep injured people from seeking more than $250,000 for pain and suffering, that certainly wasn’t enough for the Santorums themselves. His wife wanted $500,000 in damages against her Virginia-based chiropractor for alleged malpractice -- although her actual medical costs added up to $18,800.

Where do these Repubs come from? Cain saying he never did anything inappropriate and one could ask his mistress if they didn't believe him. :rolleyes: Newt saying his patriotism drove him to have affairs. Now Santorum with the "phony health requirement for abortion" and his wife suing for half a million.

My question is are these the dregs of the Repub clan or their best and brightest? God forbid if it's the latter.
