Rick Santorum: Smart People Will Never Be on Their Side

Santorum, speaking at the "Values" voter summit, along with Paul "Lyin" Ryan (who should've never spoken at a summit where hate is spewed so readily), says elite, smart people will never be on "our side." There are so many things wrong with that statement. Let's pick it apart, shall we?
1) There shouldn't be our side and their side. We're all in this together. Leaders should be compromising for the nation's best interests, not asserting their personal agendas. When people compromise, progress is made. Our Congress has failed the American people because of too many Rick Santorum types. 2) This guy wanted to be president of the US in order to inflict a certain set of personal values on people. That's not what being president is about. It was wrong for him to even think of running. It's also insulting. 3) It's sort of amusing that he acknowledges that smart people know better. 4) What isn't amusing is by saying that, he's insinuating that smart people have no morals and values, and that is offensive. It's an ignorant (definitely not smart) and absurd thing to say. 5) There is something truly wrong with the republican party. They need to tamp down on the nutters, mature a little and come back with a moderate, grown up candidate and get back to us when they're ready. How dare they push off these lame candidates.



Romney spoke at the summit via video. He thanks the Family Research Council, which is a radical conservative group that often rails against gay people. Look at his face and tell me he cares. He's so incredibly, awfully phony:


The twisted view from Fox News. Why, why, why do people listen to this crap? It's so absurd. Santorum is right -- there aren't smart people on their side:
