Just thought we needed a thread so that those who wanted to dump on Rick Santorium could do so now that he's rising in the polls.....
Poster Comment:
Wouldn't be a typical day on LF if someone didn't lie about the political candidates......
He's the ultimate neocon libtard, a combination of Arlen Specter and George W. Bush. He'll turn the USA into a gulag, while bombing foreign country into democratic hellholes.
Other than the poverty, death, and oppression, what's not to like?

Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
Santorum has some good economic ideas, especially for manufacturing.
Santorum wants to:
Replace the current individual rate structure with just two rates10 and 28 percent Lower rates on capital gains and dividends to 12 percent Triple the personal exemption for dependent children and keep the refundable earned income and child tax credits Retain tax preferences for charitable giving, mortgage interest, health care, and retirement savings Repeal the Alternative Minimum Tax Cut the corporate rate in half to 17.5 percent. Manufacturers would pay no income tax Allow full expensing for capital investment Increase the R&D tax credit to 20 percent Allow multinationals to bring foreign earnings back to the U.S. at a 5.25 percent tax rate but at a zero rate if they used the funds to buy manufacturers equipment

Wow! How does he propose to pay for all these goodies?
Contemplate the mangled bodies of your countrymen, and then say 'what should be the reward of such sacrifices?' Bid us and our posterity bow the knee, supplicate the friendship and plough, and sow, and reap, to glut the avarice of the men who have let loose on us the dogs of war to riot in our blood and hunt us from the face of the earth? If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen! -- Samuel Adams --
I have heard that was paybacks for something Toomey had done to him, but am not sure what it was over......
It was done because Boy Jorge needed Snarlin' Arlen's support to get a bill passed. Don't remember what the bill was about at this late date,but if both Boy Jorge and Specter wanted it passed,it couldn't have been good for the Republic.

Santorum claims his support for the imcumbant was because Spector was good on supreme court justices.
Alito and Roberts were both approved with Spector's help.
Thanks for the memory nudge,even though it was Boy Jorges lesbian pal (Harriet Meyers?) that was the lawyer for the Born Again church were he got "cured" of his homosexuality. She couldn't make it,so they went with either Alito or Roberts. Can't remember which one was up at bat at the time.
