Rick Santorum: "In it to win it."

[JoeB]

I'm not an expert but I believe part of the appeal of the term being applied to Santorum is that if you are doing it right, you don't get any.

His presence does suggest a certain lack of preparation.

A Fleet-ing lack of it.

 

[Spindrift]

I'd say the absence of the substance and the presence of one but not both of its two components would be an indication of a painful experience. The purpose of the second component is to prevent the experience from being painful.

I yield to your superior knowledge on the matter.

Many have bowed to my expertise in this arena.

Many have bowed to my expertise in this arena.

Is bowing the same thing as bending over?

Is bowing the same thing as bending over?

That was the joke, yes.

 

[Tricky]

That was the joke, yes.

I guess I just don't get simian humor.

Considering that veterans have their own healthcare system run by the government and paid for by taxes, I can't imagine what exactly Santorum is frothing about.

There you have it. If any soldier landing on Omaha Beach thought "I better get lifetime health care for this **** at least!" -- he got what he wanted.

 

[Alferd_Packer]

Don't you remember that scene in "Saving Private Ryan" when the soldier gets his arm shot off and he goes back to get it? That's because he knew that a government run health care plan would evenually require him to produce evidence that he once had an arm.

 

[Dorian Gray]

Even though most people don't know right now, I see it as likely that people will get Santorum all over this country, eventually.

IF that happens, the fear is that Santorum will be spread thin.

 

[Dorian Gray]

His presence does suggest a certain lack of preparation.

Unless a certain preparation is extremely present.

 

[Dorian Gray]

As a general rule, if you're doing anything that requires gloves, you've graduated well past towels and should be putting down a tarp.

Bush put down the TARP. Are you saying that Santorum somehow got involved with Bush?

 

[JudeBrando]

The man is a joke.

He is a good man.

Which is the 1996 Republican convention all over again, really.

Nommed, you are.

Too damned true.

He is a good man.

Must be a definition of 'good' with which I am not familiar.

 

[Regnad Kcin]

Yes, that's why he chose this fellow as campaign manager:

Jim Carrey? Woody Woodpecker?

I think Santorum may have just beat out Sarah Palin's remarks about Paul Revere for foolishness:

Santorum: D-Day Troops Fought For Health Care Freedom

Well they really were fighting against death panels...

 

[Upchurch]

He is a good man.

That's a stretch for someone who not only believes that homosexuality should be illegal but also wants to indoctrinate children in willful ignorance.

How is those the acts of a "good man"?

It depends on where you stand. For those people who have the opinion that it doesn't matter what happens to those who are not "good Christians," and that in fact they should be punished when possible, then Santorum is a "good person."

And so was Tomás de Torquemada.
