On the stump in Missouri, Rick Santorum resorts to the old Republican standby -- fearmongering. In this case, fearmongering about an Iranian nuclear weapon. Santorum joins a dozen high-profile conservatives who've begun beating the drum for war with Iran. Rick Santorum's foreign policy consists of three things -- a noun, a verb, and Iran.
There's one thing I never understood about the Mormons. How come "polygamy" only means the man can have as many wives as he wants? Why can't the women have as many husbands as they want?? Shouldn't that work both ways??? After all polygamy means "multiple spouses", it doesn't say which gender.

Oh, Linda, Virginia, it's all so weird. My dear Christian sister in law prays for us constantly.. we are lost souls doomed to eternal fires, she believes! Oh well, I feel like she's pious enough to save our souls too. And anyway, according to Southpark, it's the Mormons who get into heaven.
Just four years ago, the media was exploding all over themselves about the Obama's minister. It was a dilemma for the networks, especially fox, because in order to have a full character assassination of the Obama's Christian minister, they would have to admit the Obamas were Christians, or at least pretending to be all their lives.
But the mormons run, with their very weird religion, and all we get are "I'm a mormon" commericials to convince Americans they are just like us. My question has always been, why do they think we need convincing?
I did look up the special underwear. They must wear it because it reminds them to lie, because, that's one thing they seem to be really good at.
TAX THE RICH and the LDS church.

Hey Santorum! In 1962 while you were still wearing your poopy diapers, we had dozens of Soviet missiles pointed straight at us 90 miles off our shore.
Only unlike you, we had a real leader in the White House. He managed to use a thinking man's strategy to diffuse the situation and avoid an all out nuclear war.
Had one of you been in the White House, I wouldn't be sitting here typing this, we would have been annihilated.
In fact, you and your kind seem to want this war, you must or you wouldn't be talking about it so much.
You keep sabre rattling, ratcheting up hate and fear against all the Middle East, so much so that I think you guys get off on it. We the People are sick of war, sick of talking about war, and sick of paying for YOUR wars in tax money and in our kids' lives.
Oh btw, if you do decide we need war with Iran, Robot's got 5 able bodies sons, none of whom have seen fit to serve their country as yet except to drive a bus around. Be sure they sign up!

Ah yes, the religious right; Christians and Jews coming together to bring on Armeggedon and the rapture. They can make it happen. Bummer, these conservative Jews haven't realized they are not going and neither are the Catholics, yeah, you, Ricky! Only the Evangelicals are going, they just want the Jews and Catholics support to get their land! And Mormons, they're not going either, although they, too, are useful for the ulitmate end. I know it's so, my sister-in-law told me.
TAX THE RICH, enough crazy time for me!

Folks,
It's strange how all the Repubs can muster is Fear and "Obama isn't one of us, his policies are a failure," Tax cuts, Tax cuts, Tax cuts, And my favorite line... "We are listening to the American people". If these clowns were really listening to us they would go crawl under a rock!! To them "Reforming Entitlements" means doing away with every social help program in existence . They would love to give Social Security and Medicare to their buddys on Wall Street to gamble with and enrich themselves with their "Insider" investments. I love the line Bohener keeps pushing... "We're Broke"! His second line is always"We need to provide Tax cuts to the "Job Creators". We all know this is CRAP! The prior Administration did all of that and look where it got us!
Mad Dog sez.... Until the Teabaggers are run off, Congress will not be able to move forward with any meaningful legislation!They all wake up every morning to call Frank Luntz to get the "Talking points for the day!!!! Lies, All lies!!!

Santorum is getting desperate, so he's playing the Dick Cheney card. Are we supposed to believe the President doesn't have a clue what's going on with Iran after cleaning up Bush's mess for the last three+ years? Christ, these idiots on the right have nothing to offer.

Yes WAR WAR AND MORE WARS!!!!!!!!!! Lets spend lives of our young men and women to enrich the coporations and our fellow billionaires. Let our country fall into the ditch of decay and rot while we enrich the corporations making billions in other countries wars that we are fighting for them. Lets cut taxes for the coroporations and millionaires/billionaires while cutting aid to the american seniors and needy. This is what these assholes ( not insulting the animal call ass) will do and have done every time they control the government. Cant the idiots who follow them to the alter of hate for people who are different and the love of war see who is destroying the country the say they love.These men who want war have never served a day in the military in peace time or in time of conflict, and I pray the men and women with common sense in the military see what these idiots have done. The military is a defense not an offence against phony wars. YES WAR WAR AND MORE WARS WILL MAKE OUR COUNTRY LESS THAN A THRID WORLD COUNTRY WHILE WE MAKE THE MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX AND THEIR LACKIES RICHER!!!
JUST MY HUMBLE VIEW

Santorum preys on the fears of people of Missouri...while pandering for the Jewish vote.
More stupid quotes from Santorum:
" Once they ( Iran ) have a nuclear weapon, let me assure you, you will not be safe even here in Missouri." What?? not safe in the heartland....
" These are folks who have been and are at war with us since 1979." really??? 1979...
" This is a country that has killed more troops in Afghanistan and Iraq than Iraqis and Afghans."???? ***It is NATO that is killing the people in Afghanistian and Iraq****
I am by no means taking up for Iran. I am suggesting that Santorum's fearmongering is equivalent to the Mushroom Cloud commercial. And if the only way you can get votes is by scaring the $hit out of people, you shouldn't be running for president..........
