Picking on Santorum - he just makes it so easy!


The verdict is still out on whether or not Rick Santorum could be a sustainable candidate for the Republican nomination.  If all goes well for Santorum, today's Michigan primary will reveal a blighted Romney and increasing legitimacy for his campaign.  But, Rick Santorum still makes me chuckle... his off-the-cuff comments regarding JFK's speech on the separation of church and state, as well as his disdain for even the most mildy progressive ideas.  His visceral reaction to issues like gay rights, DADT, women in the military, the traditional role of women, and contraception, among others, gives serious reason for pause.  Put frankly, Rick Santorum's campaign scares me.  Here is an article about his top seven culture war moments.  Definitely worth a read.

DISCLAIMER: HIGHLY OFFENSIVE MATERIALS ENCLOSED. YES, I AM REFERRING TO HIS IDEOLOGIES.
