Santorum: Latin Americans want to harbor jihadist misile sites and training camps

[cheguevara]

:lmao :lmao

can't make this shit up. This motherfucker is bananas.



“We are going to reward this type of thuggery, this type of Marxism in our region? We are going to reward a country that is now working with these other countries to harbor and bring in Iran and the jihadists who want to bring in and set up missile sites and to set up training camps? And we are going to reward this behavior by opening up? This is the exact wrong message and the exact wrong time.”


Ron Paul's response:

“The Cold War is over. They are not going to invade us. I’ve noticed the people changing their opinions in the last four or five years. They’re not nearly as frightened. They don’t see a jihadist under the bed every night. I don’t worry about that. I worry about over-reaction and over-concern and a lack of ability to talk to these people when they call you.”

:lmao :lmao

[cheguevara]

Rick Santorum Heading Home Before Florida Primary 2012

PUNTA GORDA, Fla. — Rick Santorum is tired, almost broke – and going home.

The former Pennsylvania senator is taking a pause from Florida campaigning just days before the Tuesday primary that even he expects to deal him a third consecutive loss.

Santorum says he would rather spend his Saturday sitting at his kitchen table doing his taxes than campaigning in a state where the race for the Republican presidential nomination has become a two-man fight between Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney.

The cash-strapped candidate acknowledges that he simply can't keep up with the GOP front-runners in Florida.

"We're going to talk about the Constitution and talk about being a strong conservative," Santorum said at an event here this week. "And that's all we can do."

Outside advisers are urging him to pack up in Florida completely and not spend another minute in a state where he is cruising toward a loss. But Santorum insisted on Friday that he would return once he has readied his taxes for public release.

"I'm coming back within 24 hours, and I'm here through up to election day," Santorum told Fox News. "I've spent every minute here in Florida, and I'm going to work in Florida."

Santorum has yet to announce his schedule for Florida's primary day. He says it was a mistake for him to remain in South Carolina on its voting day.

"We can't let grass grow," he told reporters Thursday. "South Carolina Election Day was sort of a wasted day for us."

Yeah, Rick is heading home.

[baseline bum]

Damnit, we should have dressed Ghazi up as the Iranian Boogeyman to greet him at his house.

[AFBlue]

Thought he was moving on to the next state?

Santorum was just too emotional. I like that he pointed out Romney and Gingrich's hypocrisy on a couple important issues but he spent too much time attacking and accusing and not enough time simply stating his case and backing it up.
