Wow...a red fist. And a reach.

[Munson]

Yeah that article is a reach, but some of the comments on it are downright scary. People are dumb.

[bowzer]

The John Adams Project...

Another disgrace for the left.

[Rome]

Offering detainees access to legal counsel is a disgrace?

LOL

[Munson]

Remember, Republicans believe in the ideals our founding fathers founded this country on....except the ideals they disagree with.

LOL

Tailing CIA agents and taking pictures of them and than showing the pictures to Gitmo terrorists...

Santorum considers presidential run in 2012

Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum says he is considering seeking the Republican nomination for president in 2012, calling President Obama vulnerable to a challenge from the right and his policies "injurious to America."

"The dynamic has changed," Santorum said Tuesday on a RNC conference call with reporters to discuss Obama's fundraiser for Sen. Arlen Specter (D.,Pa.). "A lot of folks who wouldn't have thought about running against an incumbent president" are thinking about it. "If you'd asked the question a couple of months ago..."

Santorum cited Obama's declining poll numbers and the furor over his plans to overhaul health care and the huge federal spending on the stimulus package and bank and auto-industry bailouts.  Most of all, Santorum said that Obama has "failed to deliver on what he promised, to be a transformative president" who would unify the country.

A lot of people are going to take a look and see what they can do to confront this presidency, which many of us –as you are seeing from the tea parties and the like – which many of us believe is injurious to America," Santorum said. He said a 2012 race is "something that I think I would consider."

Santorum was responding to Commonwealth Confidential's question about his recent statement to a national group of Catholic leaders that he was thinking about running and asking for prayers. He was answering a question from a member of the audience at the group's convention when he said he had thought about a presidential run. Santorum said Tuesday that he was trying to make the point that the political climate had turned more favorable to any conservative challenge to Obama.

"I went from not considering it at all to saying I would consider it – and that's as far as I'm willing to go 3 ½ years out," Santorum said.

Rick Santorum is a lunatic

[Munson]

He's failing to unify the country because Fox and the Right are busy trying to scare the shtein out of everyone.


If he loses in 2012...ugh.

The latest from the non-racist right...

"Teabagger" Mark Williams referred to the President of the United States thusly last night on Anderson Cooper 360:

Indonesian Muslim turned welfare thug... and Racist in Chief"


Cooper pressed him on it repeatedly and he never denied holding those views.  In fact, he repeatedly suggested that Obama is exactly that.

Amazing.

Amazing.

Jimmy Carter also stated that Obama's opposition are worried about having a black man in power.

Both sides bring race into it.


Jimmy Carter was irrelevant as a president and is irrelevant now.

[Diomedes]

Carter is right on the race point, and you are not.  Ho hum.  What he has never been is been politically shrewd.  He's too honest.  It doesn't help liberals or Obama for him to be calling out the racists, but he either doesn't realize that, or doesn't care.  I tend to think the latter.

Yeah, its just the right with the fear mongering. The President would never stoop to that level:
