So far, the only GOP candidate that doesn't make me completely ill is Mitt "Plain Vanilla" Romney.

The rest are just also-rans.


quite frankly the whole lot of them scare the f#ck out of me...including Obama.
The only candidate that I agree with doesnt have a rats chance in cat hell of getting elected....is Jon Huntsman. He is just too decent for the media to promote.

While we're on the topic, I think the age of great american presidents is over for good cause of the campaign structure that needs huge amounts of money and most of it from donations from corporations which then the elected must represent if they want to be funded again.
On top of that, the media pretty much chooses who they wish to promote and who they wish to smear and candidates are dependant on this process cause of the price of exposure on tv.
Back in the age of the greats, campaigning was simple and more direct. Candidates rode around, talked to people and mass mailed letters and flyers and put up posters of their positions and pledges. Nowdays there are way too many middlemen between the voter and the right candidate.

Less government is good, up to a point. No government at all means anarchy. RP seems to want to eliminate government entirely, aspecially a federalist government.

As for Mr. Santorum, here's a link to a CNN Op-Ed piece: Santorum wants to impose 'Judeo-Christian Sharia'.

Dean Obeidallah wrote:
Plainly put, Rick Santorum wants to convert our current legal system into one that requires our laws to be in agreement with religious law, not unlike what the Taliban want to do in Afghanistan. Santorum is not hiding this. The only reason you may not be aware of it is because up until his recent surge in the polls, the media were ignoring him. However, "Santorum Two" was out there telling anyone who would listen. He told a crowd at a November campaign stop in Iowa in no uncertain terms, "our civil laws have to comport with a higher law: God's law."

On Thanksgiving Day at an Iowa candidates' forum, he reiterated: "We have civil laws, but our civil laws have to comport with the higher law."

Yes, that means exactly what you think it does: Santorum believes that each and every one of our government's laws must match God's law, warning that "as long as there is a discordance between the two, there will be agitation." I'm not exactly sure what "agitation" means in this context, but I think it's a code word for something much worse than acid reflux.

No wonder he hates gays.

In the unlikelihood that Santorum gets the Republican nomination, Barack has to make this lunatic's views known to the public.

If that happens, then write-in Mickey Mouse would have a good chance of winning the election.
I can see the headlines now," First cartoon character wins the highest office in the US. A great day is the history of prismacolor markers, equality is finally here."
:lol:

Ugh I hate people like that. They don't realize Autism CAN be controled to a certain extent BUT can never go away AND the Autistic person actually has to choose to control it. Other than that, there's literally nothing they can do except inject us or give us experimental drugs that can possibly drive us insane. Oh wait, they ALREADY do that!! !! !!

Well anyone who was the least bit odd back then...and during the inquisition... was deemed a witch, so it is possible that a large number of autistics were burned at the stake.

there....proof of the autistic genocide.
