    OMFG the dude really is the ultimate Ugly American. Thank GOD Romney still got more delegates this week. Santorum the GOP nominee is just waaaay too few heartbeats from the White House for me.

    What if Romney makes him VP?

    This has been your daily does of mortal terror.
  3. Otterloop Beardy Magnificence

    Nope. Santorum is not Conservative enough.

  4. lesslucid This Is SEWIOUS

    Didn't Romney attend a fundraiser for Planned Parenthood?

    So Rick Santorum tells Puerto Rico that they have to speak English if they want statehood.

    What an ignorant asshole.

    One of my grad school classmates is Puerto Rican. She's livid.
  7. Mark M Elitist Negative Nancy

    Now you're going to have to listen to her babble at you in whatever language they speak there, aren't you? I'm so sorry.

    Wait a second... how did she find out what Santorum said? Did someone translate his words to her language? Why the fuck would they do that?

    Christ, did she stab you with a broken bottle before cursing you to whatever heathen god they worship?

    NO! NO that is NOT the narrative! Santorum would be WINNING if Gingrich dropped OUT! Gingrich is the ONLY reason Santorum isn't president RIGHT NOW!! /FOXnews

    In other Santorum news: Santorum's staffers are either incompetent or hate him

    All three questions are really good, and really good slams, and, spoiler alert, he doesn't answer any of them.

  11. lesslucid This Is SEWIOUS

    Santorum's... staffers?
  12. Otterloop Beardy Magnificence

    So it looks like the wheels are spinning off. He's cursing out reporters and getting angry that he has to clarify yet again

    THEY'VE GOT HIM ON THE RUN NOW, BOYS!

    *sigh*

    Either anti-gay or Santorum is going after the huge "ew cooties" voting bloc
  15. Pogo Hard Cider Gal

    I kinda agree with him there, actually. Pink is a horrid fucking color.

    Shut the fuck up. My girlfriend looks adorable in pink.

    I refuse to believe he knows how to use his balls.
  22. Ebly Beardy Magnificence

    Given he's apparently throwing them down an alleyway at some pins, I agree.

    I don't know, I expect he's pretty accomplished at knocking pins in alleyways.

    That really takes Santorum to a whole new level. It takes some extra-strength concentrated racism to refer to Obama that way, and while there's been plenty of whiffs of racism along his campaign trail I there was nothing like that. It also gives you some insight into what his private conversations must be like, you don't accidentally drop a word like that unless it's part of your normal speaking vocabulary.

    Seriously I cannot believe I just watched that, dude can't even do dogwhistle racism right

    I bet his thought process during those parts of his speeches goes like "Don't say the word Don't say the word Don't say the...GOD DAMN IT"

    I gotta say, I love Santorum's new Obamaville commercial.



    I think it's great cos after watching The Road I thought to myself 'I wish a neocon would do a prequel to that.' and boom, Ricky makes my dreams come true.

    (I did a quick search for Obamaville and got no hits. If someone's already shared this, I am sorry. I am so, so sorry. I am the tenth doctor all up in this shit. Also, I hope that YouTube video is correct. YouTube is blocked where I work so I can't double check, but I'm pretty sure I got a good link.)

    I've seen that one, but it was embedded in the "awful political images" thread, not this one.
  32. Erik J. Hard Cider Gal

    Come on, guys, let's wait for the clarification. I'm sure there's a totally reasonable expla... ah fuck it.
  33. Otterloop Beardy Magnificence

    There IS a reasonable explanation:

    Case closed everyone. I, for one, am reassured.
  34. Lizard_King Already Beat BF's New Expansion

    Get your mind out of the gutter, America.
  35. Pogo Hard Cider Gal

    My mind was supposed to go somewhere else after hearing "nig-uhhhh" obviously.
  36. Otterloop Beardy Magnificence

    I can't help but feel he wouldn't have these troubles if he had a teleprompter. I guess those are reserved for blah people
    Saccaroa and lesslucid like this.
  37. Otterloop Beardy Magnificence

    Here's a better explanation: Santorum was using the word "government-nik"

    The last time he did this, he tried to pretend he'd said something else as well. The difference being this time there just isn't any remotely plausible "real" word. Which is why he's just going with outright denial of what everyone can hear in the clip.
  39. lesslucid This Is SEWIOUS

    I've heard people say that it was meant to be "negotiator" - as in, he'd rather negotiate than start a war - and actually in that context, it sort of makes sense. Sort of. And he stumbled over the word. I can just about buy it.

    Unlike the "blah people" one, for which there is no plausible explanation. Oh, except that Santorum's a racist sack of crap, but when you're an anti-gay bigot, what's one more type of vile prejudice to add to the mix?
