HIS HOLINESS RICK SANTORUM

I was going to write something about all the stupid things that Rick Santorum has been saying lately.  Then I realized he always said stupid things, but he has ratcheted it up a notch recently.  My personal opinion is since he has become almost the front runner for the GOP nomination for President he has become scared.    He really doesn't want to be President, He wants to preach his odd brand of religion. The only thing for him to do is say all the stupid things he can think of. If we assume he's sane, which is a big assumption. Then  that is the only explanation for his outlandish statements recently.  Personally I would love to see him win the nomination.  I don’t see how he could get elected. 

GOD'S WILL

Karen Santorum said it was “Gods Will” that her husband Rick is running for President. Why is it that almost all the GOP Presidential candidates said that God told me to run?  Are all these guys’ nuts, or do they think the electorate is that gullible?  From some of the dumb and outright lies they spew I am sure they think the electorate is stupid.  They pander to the fearful and the religious pious.  If President Obama wins again how does the right wing justify that if God is on their side?

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?

  Indiana lawmaker Rep. Bob Morris (R-Fort Wayne)    has decided that the Girl Scouts of   America are a "radicalized organization" that "sexualizes" young girls and promotes homosexuality. Other than the fact that this guy‘s brain is scrambled.  I have to ask again what is wrong with the water in Indiana.  Over the past year or so several Indiana lawmakers have said some of the stupidest things. I might amend that.  Republicans in general stay the stupidest things.  I still wonder how these people get into office.  Isn’t anyone paying attention?  They say things that are patently untrue, and when it’s pointed out they just ignore it or say they didn’t mean their statements to be factual.  People have to wake up and pay attention.

CRAZY BISHOP

Bishop R. Walker Nickless, of the Sioux City, Iowa diocese  speaking recently about the health care mandate that insurance companies have to pay for contraceptive services. He stated the power of evil—the devil—can certainly look—is looking everywhere to find places where they can—where the power of evil can make a difference. What is the so called man of God’s answer? “And that’s why we’ve got to stand up and violently oppose this.”  I don’t know what he means by violently, but it seems to be a little bit nuts and the Catholic Church ought to look into this man’s sanity.  If Bishops of the church were so concerned about people especially children they ought to look at themselves for all the horrible things they have perpetrated on the young and then tried to cover it up.

THREAT?

I recently wrote a letter to the editor in a local newspaper.  It pertained to another person’s take on President Obama’s State of the Union speech.  The rules for this paper are you can’t actually refer to the person writing the other letter or be insulting in anyway.  The final passage of my letter was as follows:

If the GOP gets its way, there will be two classes of people in this country — them and the rest of us.  I was referring to the fact they are trying to push this class warfare theme.  Of course class warfare only applies to things they agree with, and ignores their attacks on the middle class; poor, and labor and unions.  So I get a call from a loony right-wing nut that goes on a rant about how I don’t know anything and I better wake up before it’s too late.  I guess I could have taken this as a threat, but what I take from it is that statement I made about them and the rest of us true.  Disagreement is an idea they can’t accept or abide by when it comes to them.

ARE THESE GUYS NUTS?

Rick Santorum is living in an alternative universe.  He has said many stupid things, but I think he might have topped himself.  Commenting on the phony war on religion that the GOP is running against the Obama administration. Mr. Santorum had this to say. They are taking faith and crushing it. Why? Why? When you marginalize faith in America, when you remove the pillar of God-given rights, then what’s left is the French Revolution. What’s left is the government that gives you right, what’s left are no unalienable rights, what’s left is a government that will tell you who you are, what you’ll do and when you’ll do it. What’s left in France became the guillotine. Ladies and gentlemen, we’re a long way from that, but if we do and follow the path of President Obama and his overt hostility to faith in America, then we are headed down that road.  This moron doesn’t seem to get that is what he is trying to do.  He has no problem interfering in your sex life and telling you if you can or should use contraceptives.  His idiotic argument never takes into consideration that he isn’t God.

THE PERFECT CANDIDATE

Michele Bachmann the crazy loon from Minnesota was asked who she thought was the best candidate for the GOP presidential nomination.  Michele being so humble stated "I was. I was the perfect candidate," Then she went on to say, “America had their chance with the perfect candidate.  I know self-confidence is needed but this woman is completely nuts.  The sad thing is some people in her district thinks she walks on water.  Maybe this next election she will be put back where she belongs.  The only problem is I for the life of me can’t figure out where she belongs.

THE GOP ASYLUM

The inmates are running the asylum.   Alabama State Senator Shadrack McGill (R) said the Bible says that increasing teacher salaries would only lead to less qualified teachers.  He thinks if you have the calling to teach money shouldn’t matter. 

3 State Reps. in Washington State; Matt Shea(R) Cary Condotta (R) and Jason Overstreet ( R ) introduced a bill that would make the dollar unconstitutional.

Mitt Romney the front runner for the GOP nomination for President said he is not concerned about the very poor.  We have a safety net for them he stated.  Of course Romney wants to weaken a lot of the safety net.

Allen West ( R ) Fla.  Told a crowd that they needed to tell Democrats like President Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) to take their ideas and "get the hell out of the United States of America."   Of course now he says he didn’t actually say that, and it was taken out of context.  This clown does this quite regularly and then blames the media for taking it out of context. 

The real question is how these loons get elected in the first place. Is the electorate completely out of whack?
