Rick Santorum’s spokeswoman Alice Stewart said in a TV interview on Monday that Santorum was referring to President Barack Obama’s “radical Islamic policies” when he said the president’s agenda was driven by “phony theology” — but then quickly called up MSNBC after the segment aired to say she misspoke.

see now, that's just sad.

If Santorum wins the nom, look for a third party to gain major traction. Mostly libertarian.

Santorum would give birth to a third party. He must be retarded inside

Remember when people were ashamed to say they were Republicans at the end of Bush II's second term?

This is about 10x worse.

I'm not a Republican, I never liked Bush, but my dislike for him had nothing to do with anything like what I fear from Santorum.

Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum on Sunday likened the upcoming U.S. election to World War II.

While the candidate's comments to a packed First Redeemer Church in Cumming, Georgia were somewhat vague, NBC news noted that he "seemed to compare President [Barack] Obama to [Adolph] Hitler."

The former Pennsylvania senator told his supporters that this election was like World War II, "where our closest ally, Britain, was being bombed and leveled."

"And America sat from 1940 when France fell to December of '41 and did almost nothing," he explained. "Why? Because we're a hopeful people. We think, 'You know it will get better. Yeah, I mean, he's a nice guy. It won't be near as bad as what we think. You know, this will be OK. You know, maybe he's not the best guy.' After a while, you found out some things about this guy over in Europe and maybe he's not so good of a guy after all. But you know what? 'Why do we need to be involved? We'll just take care of our own problems, just get our families off to work and our kids off to school and we'll be OK.'"

The candidate added: "Sometimes, sometimes it's not OK."

As BuzzFeed pointed out earlier this year, it's not the first time Santorum has compared his opponents to Adolph Hitler.

During a 2005 speech on the Senate floor, the then-senator blasted Senate Democrats for complaining that Republicans were trying to stop them from filibustering President George W. Bush's judicial appointees.

"It's the equivalent of Adolf Hitler in 1942: 'I'm in Paris. How dare you invade me? How dare you bomb my city? It's mine,'" he said.

There is income inequality in America. There always has been and hopefully, and I do say that, there always will be. Why? Because people rise to different levels of success based on what they contribute to society and to the marketplace and that's as it should be. We shouldn't have a society that has a President who envies or creates class warfare or envy between one group of people and another. We should celebrate like we do in the small towns all across American as you do here in Detroit. You celebrate success. You build statues and monuments. Buildings, you name after them. Why? Because in their greatness and innovation, yes, they created wealth, but they created wealth for everybody else, and that's a good thing, not something to be condemned in America.

If you are a Democrat, are you pulling for Romney to get the nominee because he is sane or Santorum to get the nominee because he is crazy and can't win the general election?

[Jase]

I only object to his non-radical islamic policies

[g5jamz]

Pretty sure Andrea Mitchell felt it was a misstatement where she meant "environmentalist". Same argument that Santorum was making when he was quoted supposedly questioning Obama's "theology...when it wasn't his christianity he was referring to.

This is a really tough question.

I would like Romney to get it so I can keep harping on how stupid Republicans are for spending the last 3 years railing against Obamacare and liberal government and Wall Street cronyism, then nominating a Romneycare former liberal Massachusetts governor who sleeps in a bed stuffed with Wall Street cash.

I would like Santorum to get it so that no one would vote for him.

What to do, what to do?
