Saturday Santorum: the Return of the Rickster

I've not done the Saturday wrap-up of all the great things the former Sen from Penn has done in quite awhile.  Honestly there wasn't much material.  But this past week....

The Rickster is back and better than ever.  He's knows he's going to surge and has none of the electability issues of Gingrich and Romney.

First of all he understands that politics has been blinded by with science:

Discussing controversial classroom subjects such as evolution and global warming, Santorum said he has suggested that “science should get out of politics” and he is opposed to teaching that provides a “politically correct perspective.”

and from the same source, Santorum-rama  gives his thoughts on ed-a-mucation:

...he favors an education system designed around the fact that most parents love their children and want to give their child the best opportunity for success.

Enough of that there schooling designed by parents who hate their kids!

As The Donald would tell you (if you were worthy of his magnificence), Santorum is the epitome of loyalty and integrity. And he's not going to let those lesser candidates get away with skipping the King of the Birthers/Newsmax/Ion(!?) debate:

“Many of my opponents jockeyed to be the first to fly up to New York and use Donald Trump for a photo op and no doubt try and secure an endorsement. But when Donald wants to moderate a debate – they refuse to attend. That’s what’s so wrong with politics today – hypocrisy," Santorum said in a statement released Thursday.

He's not letting up on teh gayz either.  When it was suggested that same-sex marriage hurts no one Santorum let 'em have it:

Clearly agitated, Santorum seemed astounded when Kornelis said he couldn’t contemplate how this would “be a hit to faith and family in America.”

“You can’t think of any consequence?” Santorum asked.

Kornelis answered that he did not.

Santorum then said that if same sex marriage was legalized then “their sexual activity” would be seen as “equal” to heterosexual relationships and it would be taught in schools.

“Really- wow- um okay, well let’s see if we can have a discussion. We can flesh out some, well, let’s look at what’s going to be taught in our schools because now we have same sex couples being the same and their sexual activity being seen as equal and being affirmed by society as heterosexual couples and their activity,” Santorum said.

See, Ricky knows the agenda of those gays, those dirty sexy bad boys, the ones he just can't stop talking about, thinking about, dreaming about...

And don't try to tell him that being a Christian is about helping others. Rick Nasty-mixture also knows that no one dies in America from lack of health insurance:

“People die in America because people die in America (he loves those tautologies). And people make poor decisions with respect to their health and their healthcare. And they don’t go to the emergency room or they don’t go to the doctor when they need to,” he said. “And it’s not the fault of the government for not providing some sort of universal benefit.

He's also not happy that Obama let us know bin Laden was dead.  Well, as McCain aide Mark Salter posted on Facebook, "For pure, blind stupidity, nobody beats Santorum. In my 20 years in the Senate, I never met a dumber member, which he reminded me of today,"

Ahh the Rickster, truly a stellar representative of the people of Pennsylvania.
