Santorum: Obama Has Put America On ‘The Path’ Of Executing Religious People By Decapitation

By Igor Volsky

Rick Santorum continued to rail against President Obama’s so-called war against religion during a town hall in Plano, Texas Wednesday night. The former Pennsylvania senator — who has spent the last several days criticizing the government’s requirement that insurers provide contraception coverage and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeal’s decision striking down Proposition 8 — accused the administration of “crushing” religion and setting the United States on the path towards executing religious people by decapitation:

SANTORUM: They are taking faith and crushing it. Why? Why? When you marginalize faith in America, when you remove the pillar of God-given rights, then what’s left is the French Revolution. What’s left is the government that gives you right, what’s left are no unalienable rights, what’s left is a government that will tell you who you are, what you’ll do and when you’ll do it. What’s left in France became the guillotine. Ladies and gentlemen, we’re a long way from that, but if we do and follow the path of President Obama and his overt hostility to faith in America, then we are headed down that road.

Watch it:

1. he's out of his fucking mind.

[Shadowflash]

11. That's pretty much it in a nutshell.

[truebrit71]

35. Yup...sums it all up nicely

[sellitman]

43. You nailed it in the very first post!

Nothing more needs to be said.

[SammyWinstonJack]

47. Bat shit

[emulatorloo]

49. And the wackos eat up every word.

[roguevalley]

59. people who know him think he's beyond stupid and wasn't it bob

kerrey who said santorum is latin for stupid?
He's won a few and figures that everyone agrees with him so the stupid he hid sort of is coming out.

[Hepburn]

82. Wow...

...what the hell is between his ears?

Normally a dick in between a guy's legs. In this case, there may be an exception.

[cstanleytech]

132. "what the hell is between his ears?" Answer

santorum (san-TOR-um) n.
1. The frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter
that is sometimes the by-product of anal sex.

[cstanleytech]

131. Old news really.

[Remember Me]

167. Just how visibly sick does a person have to be before someone

takes some action on the subject? Hell, I'm beginning to feel sorry for him -- deathly afraid of him, but sorry for him nonetheless.

[JI7]

179. He knows what he is doing, he learned Well from Newt, but unlike Newt who does it by Race baiting,

santorum does it by claiming it's about christian persecution.

[Aerows]

186. Pretty much

No other conclusion I can come to about this guy.

[Pachamama]

192. He & the rest of the right-wing religious nuts...Crazy out of their effing minds...paranoid too...

My New Years resolution for 2012 was that I am done with crazy people. Done with trying to reason with them, having them involved in my life either directly or indirectly.

Just seeing and hearing the garbage that comes out of this nutjob Santorum's mouth was humorous for awhile, then it got annoying. Now its getting downright crazy the stuff he is saying.

Guillitone....rapture...end of world....satan....the right wing religious freaks all think that of Obama and the democrats. But its them that are the dangerous ones.....and they are seriously out of their fucking minds....

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. Dude's turning into a Monty Python sketch.

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise! ...Surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our three weapons are fear, and surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope....

[AlbertCat]

23. Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!

Obama: Bring out....


...THE COMFY CHAIR!!!!!!

[Johnny Noshoes]

57. nt.

[CTyankee]

98. I'd prefer a new edition of the Spanish Inquisition than to ever let Santorum in my life!

nt

[csziggy]

128. These days we shoud expect the Spanish Inquisition

But what we get is

[Suji to Seoul]

181. You have one last chance

Confess the heinous sin of heresy.

Reject the works of the unbeliever. . .two last chances!

And you shall be set free. . .three last chances! You have three last chances!

Unrighteous creatures. How do you plead!

[FSogol]

3. Hey Santorum, Ask your doctor if Abilify is right for you.

[SaintPete]

19. I laughed

and then I laughed again

[LongTomH]

31. What Rick needs is a good anti-psychotic!

The road sign saying: "You are now leaving reality! Come again!" isn't even in his rear-view mirror.

[roguevalley]

61. he can't come again. that's nasty. Enjoy your dinner. I'll be here all night.

[louslobbs]

137. Risperidone Tab 1MG 1 tablet 24 times daily......refills: Lifetime. Dr. Louslobbs.

[Odin2005]

155. A psychoanalist would have a field day with him.

[azurnoir]

55. I'd say maybe Seroquel would be more appropriate in his case

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0001030/

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

70. I was thinking more along the lines of Thorazine or Haldol.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0000553/
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0000604/

[hifiguy]

76. Horse-sized doses of Thorazine sounds about right

Administered on an hourly basis. By way of a suppository.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

78. But watch out for the santorum.

[louslobbs]

138. lol.....yep. n/t

Lou

[azurnoir]

134. a pharma 'cocktail' of sorts maybe?

could do the trick

[daligirl519]

198. Yes . . .

I work in a psych hospital as a social worker - A great big dose of Haldol decanoate every 2 weeks. Mandatory.

[jmowreader]

151. I'm thinkin' a cocktail of Clozapine, Lithium and Thorazine

[hifiguy]

190. Nice. Throw a little ketamine in, too.

That will calm him right down.

[FarLeftFist]

4. Who is this imaginary candidate they are running against?!

[LiberalLovinLug]

44. That's a good way to put it

They have taken the "straw man argument" to a whole notha level.

Obama is just too smooth, he's too pragmatic, cordial, and worst of all he's so damn conciliatory!
They have to make up their own candidate, take him to a Hollywood effects house and put fangs on him, hair, and big claws, then dress him in "hood" style baggy pants and a backwards cap to top it off. Install a pull string in his back to say things like "All America is now under Sharia Law", "Off with that Christians head!" and "Give me your guns!"

Only THEN do they feel they have a shot at him. With their holy-than-thou silver bullets.

[kenfrequed]

104. There is nothing rational in what he says

Insanity, historical ignorance, logical fallacy. Will the GOP believe anything?

[hifiguy]

115. Many of them will believe absolutely anything

if a Repuke or a religulous authority figure says it. If they are so damned dumb as to believe that the planet is 6000 years old, there is nothing too sub-moronic for them to swallow.

[cstanleytech]

133. True enough......sadly my younger brother who is actually

slightly retarded believes their line of BS including the stuff about Obama being a muslim *sigh*

[louslobbs]

139. You know, the same guy who has a deep seated/seeded hatred for white people. n/t

Lou

[shraby]

5. His wins makes him think he's infallible, and the real insanity is beginning.

[WheelWalker]

50. +1

[hifiguy]

6. I didn't think it was possible

at least in this universe, but he is even more totally insane than Michele Bachmann. And that beggars the imagination.

And there are people so monumentally stupid that they take him seriously. Pitiful.

[Plucketeer]

73. He's whacko alright

But the truth is, I'd be all for his prediction if HIS noggin was the first one removed! It'd HAVE TO stand as a betterment of our gene pool.

[PADemD]

173. Einstein

"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."

Albert Einstein

[Swede]

7. I believe that is called "rabble rousing".

nt

[tallahasseedem]

8. Oh fer FFS...

that is all!

[JHB]

9. Let's collect all his speeches against "Unitary Executive" theory:

There, that covers it.

See? He never had a problem with that kind of power.

[sinkingfeeling]

10. What did that even mean? That's so stupidly worded, it makes no sense.

[bowens43]

12. the man is a complete nut job.

bat shit crazy is all they have.

[WI_DEM]

13. Yes, and you first Ricky.

[mercuryblues]

14. the problem

with him (and people like him) is that they believe they are 100% correct; no matter what they say and do. They believe that God is speaking through them so they are infallible and you are the crazy one for not washing his feet.

[get the red out]

15. Transference

I think that's what it is called when you accuse others of what you would really like to do. In his case persecute people without his religious convictions.

People like him make others fear and loathe religion and its influence on our political system. He does not help himself.

[Odin2005]

156. Projection, not transference

Transference is when you project your repressions onto your psychotherapist.

[get the red out]

183. Thanks, I knew it was something

Couldn't recall the term. I have "statin brain".

[Initech]

16. Any time the religious right is that scared it means another step for progress.

[exboyfil]

17. Best case scenario

Holding power to get him to broker for the VP nod. Can you imagine the fun his statements will generate in the general election?

[roguevalley]

64. what can you expect from someone who really gives a lot of

thought to what everyone has in their pants, that outspokenly says sex is dirty and should only be used to make babies and personally looks like the shit stain that used to fink to the teachers? He needs a good hard fuck from the species of his choice. Truly.

[SaintPete]

18. I wish Santorum were smarter

because stupid, paranoid people with a hard on for power scare the fuck out of me

[LarryNM]

20. No, That's what you get with a Theocracy

And you get a "the church is the only and final say" theocracy by Privatization and ending the democratic State.

[blue neen]

21. Good grief, the man is bonkers.

Santorum is completely and dangerously crazy.

[AlbertCat]

22. Obama Has Put America On ‘The Path’ Of Executing Religious People By Decapitation

Let's hope so!!!!


Or perhaps more appropriately:


Poor, POOR put upon Christians! They just never get a break. Nobody likes them. They're soooo unpopular, they just hate the Heathers!


The French Revolution??? The one inspired by OUR revolution? Really?



Down with King Louiiiiiiiiiiiiiis... Obama!

[geardaddy]

28. "The French Revolution??? The one inspired by OUR revolution? Really? "

Exactly, the one where they took down people who claimed to rule by divine right.

I think Ricky thinks he's Louis the XIV.

[AlbertCat]

32. I think Ricky thinks he's Louis the XIV.

Louis was better dressed.



Hey... remember that Allan Sherman song?

"You went the wrong way Ol' King Louis.
You disappointed all of France.
But what else can you expect from a King in silk stockings
And pink satin pants....."

[geardaddy]

42. You're right, Louis was better dressed.

I remember Allan Sherman, but I don't remember that song.

Here's a lyric for you.

"Li'l Ricky thinks the Bastille is coming to us,
With beheadings of Christians all over the U.S.
At least Louis XIV was better dressed
He wouldn't be caught dead in a sweater vest."

just made it up.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

144. Maybe Napoleon the XIV - "They're coming to take me away"

[Scootaloo]

24. If your faith revolves around hatred of gays and fear of women, maybe it needs to be crushed

Just like hte people whose faith revolved around separation of the races, or whose faith demands suicide explosions in pizzerias. Just 'cause you call your fucked-up, abusive ideology a "religion" doesn't mean you get to be immune from the consequences of your fucked-up, abusive behavior.

[roguevalley]

66. this man is not a christian. Does anyone truly believe that Jesus

would side with them? He would sit with the rest of us. If you really truly want to see who and what Jesus supports review the pictures of the students getting pepper sprayed.

[Odin2005]

158. NO TRUE SCOTSMAN!

[Scootaloo]

189. No? I didn't know there was a test!

When was he excommunicated, anyway?

[A Simple Game]

25. I get the impression he was saying the exact opposite.

He never said the government was going to execute religious people, I got the impression that like the French revolution he was hinting at a religious uprising to execute our leaders.

He needs to be careful giving people ideas about the French revolution, it was actually the French 99 percent commoners that rose up against the French 1 percent aristocracy.

[patrice]

172. And what they wrought was such a monstrosity that it took another emperor to straighten it out.

[LibertyLover]

26. Dear Mr. Santorum

I say this in all seriousness. Please terminate your current campaign for the Republican presidential nomination immediately. Concurrent with that, re-start your medications for paranoia and return to seeing your therapist on a regular basis. Taking these steps now will, I believe, have a saluatory effect on your mental health, which is quite obviously severely compromised at the present time. Thank you.

Sincerely,
An American Voter

Gold Jerry, gold!!!

[Londoncalling]

34. There are people of faith in France,

it is the country that has the world famous Notre Dame in Paris, nobody is prevented from attending any religious service. They just don't pray in public schools, have secular war memorials and have President that has been divorce and re-married in his time in office and nobody in France cared...They also abolished the Death Penalty, so what is he talking about?

[roguevalley]

69. when you talk out your ass nothing makes sense

[GoCubsGo]

36. Now, there's a guy who is in dire need of some long-term psychiataric help.

The same goes for the imbeciles who think this whackjob is suitable for the position of POTUS.

They're coming to take me away ho ho he he ha ha
To the funny farm where life is beautiful all the time and
I'll be happy to see those nice men in their clean white coats
They're coming to take me away Ha Ha
To the happy home with trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket weavers who sit and smile and twiddle thier thumbs and toes
They're coming to take me away Ha Ha Ha

45. The Republican Freak Show is moving to the main event, I see.

[Fix The Stupid]

48. This is scary.

No... not the fact that us atheists are going to start chopping religious people's heads off...

This is the best that the GOP has to offer?

This is frightening. Maybe more scary because he actually believes what he says???

I don't know...but this is just extreme craziness...

How can this guy be a legitimate candidate for President? How???

[onethatcares]

120. better question

who are the people that support him? jeez, just thinking it might be the guy next to me in the grocery store scares the bejesus outa me.

[SCantiGOP]

51. I'll volunteer

to pull the cord on Pat Robertson. Bonus: he won't have to wait for the Rapture!

[BumRushDaShow]

52. He is having a nervous breakdown before our eyes. n/t

54. What color is the sky in his world? (nt)

56. really scary part is that there are people out there

that believe this stuff

[tclambert]

57. Darn, he's figured out our secret plan! Hide the guillotines!

Quick! Stick some candles on it. "Oh, that? It's not a guillotine. It's a candelabra."

[Harriety]

60. When they have nothing relevant to say....

they just make up shit and sling it out there to scare people. This guy wants to be president, then he'd better start making sense because he hasn't so far.

[madrchsod]

62. does he think the moderate republicans and the undecided are going to buy him?

the guy is batshitcrazy

[Evasporque]

63. I'm hearing some frothy oozing sound.....nt

[workinclasszero]

65. What a fuckin LOON!

Damn, Ricky just stole the batshit insane crown from Bachmann!

I am a Christian myself and it pisses me off so much when these rethuglian teabaggers claim they are being persecuted by Obama or anybody else.

Because there are Christians in this world goin through REAL persecution. To the point of dying for their faith and these fuckin slimeball assholes from the First Church of Mammon, Disciples of Ayn Rand have the gall to cry that their rich pampered right wing asses are being persecuted by the scary black man!

[The Wielding Truth]

77. This irresponsible loon for President??!!! He should be in psychiatric treatment!

[hifiguy]

80. Reminds me of a quote I read in a Jack Germond book

years ago.

The then (Republican) governor of Ohio, Rhodes, IIRC, made the following comment after George Romney, the sane and decent father of Willard, said he was "brainwashed" by the US military about the situation in Vietnam:

"George Romney running for president is like a duck trying to fuck a football."

Substitute "pRick Santorum" and the same goes for him.

[workinclasszero]

97. I totally agree with that, Truth! /nt

[Douglas Carpenter]

67. "ALL that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution" - II Timothy 3:12

CRAZY Rick Santorum is not only literally preaching to the choir - he is reassuring them of their own salvation. In Fundamentalist circles - being persecuted is viewed as proof of one's righteousness and even their redemption. AND - The rise of great persecution along with apocalyptic wars in the Middle East are absolute proofs and signs of the second coming of Jesus Christ. By telling these people that they are being persecuted and greater persecution may be coming - he is very much telling them what they in fact very much want to hear and reaffirming to them their own sense of righteousness and even reassuring them of their own salvation.

[Enrique]

68. so did all that happen in Massachussetts?

after Romney enacted exactly the same policy?

[eyewall]

72. I can't tell if it's

the blithering idiot, racist pig or the dangerously psychotic part that pisses me off the most about Santorum and his primary cohorts. The question was asked in comments above, HOW can this be!? This is a presidential race and we're being offered republican candidates that generate homicidal hatred of the normal America most people think they live in.

While they're proselytizing FEAR, I'm swimming in cognitive dissonance. wtf!

[Johonny]

74. make more sense to allow certain Hospitals to just ignore some government regulations

you know that won't put your life in jeopardy but Regulation on health care coverage will.

Jesus never used disinfectants and from now on our religious hospital isn't either...

[eyewall]

75. I just watched the video at the link.

This was played on MSNBC's Morning Joe show.

Anybody know how they reacted to it?

[Ccarmona]

79. When these crackpots open their mouth

its a wonder that complete sentences come out.
I understand why Obama is allowing the formation of SuperPACs, but his best campaign speeches are the ones given by the Republican candidates.

[RKP5637]

93. Wow!!! He's really lost his grip on reality!

[MNBrewer]

94. LOL!!! If only

[liberal N proud]

95. Where do they come up with this shit?

[markbark]

153. Where do they come up with this shit? Answer: Revelation 20:4

And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

Jefferson had it right:
"It is between fifty and sixty years since I read it [the Book of Revelation], and I then considered it merely the ravings of a maniac, no more worthy nor capable of explanation than the incoherencies of our own nightly dreams ... I cannot so far respect them as to consider them as an allegorical narrative of events, past or subsequent. There is not enough coherence in them to countenance any suite of rational ideas.... What has no meaning admits no explanation. And pardon me if I say, with the candor of friendship, that I think your time too valuable, and your understanding of too high an order, to be wasted on these paralogisms. You will perceive, I hope, also that I do not consider them as reveladons of the supreme being, whom I would not so far blaspheme as to impute to him a pretension of revelation, couched at the same time in terms which, he would know, were never to be understood by those to whom they were addressed."
-- Thomas Jefferson, letter to General Alexander Smyth, January 17, 1825

[LongTomH]

188. The Evangelical church my grandmother tried to raise me in took this shit literally!

The more mainline Methodist church I attended for a while identified Revelations as an allegory on the early church and the Roman Empire. Writer Robert Anton Wilson just suggested that St. John may have gotten hold of some funky mushrooms. Either (or both) of the latter two explanations strike me as plausible.

[Dragonbreathp9d]

96. My friend went to heckle him there!

I'll have to get her full story and share it with you.

BANKER TROUBLES?

[Generic Other]

103. I am so embarassed at the prospect of this guy being chosen by the GOP as their man

They managed to stoop lower than Palin. So low they must be doing the limbo.

[PADemD]

109. You're not the only one who's embarassed. He used to be our Senator.

Every time some TV host talks about him, they say "former PA Senator Santorum."

[onethatcares]

121. yeah, they always leave out the

"former PA senator santorum that lived in Virginia while serving his term" for some reason.

[stockholmer]

112. limbo? they are damn near the underground depth to find abiotic oil

[nolabear]

105. Speaking of religious persecution:

"Sweet Jesus, take me now!"

[cindyperry2010]

106. PLEASE LET THIS FUCKNIG

MORON BE THE NOMINEE. If there is a god in heaven please please please.

[spanone]

108. a theocratic sick=fuck

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

125. Yup, he's saying that all our freedoms and rights are "God-given"

"...When you marginalize faith in America, when you remove the pillar of God-given rights, then what’s left is the French Revolution. ..."

You're right to point out that the gist of his statement is the promotion of a theocracy. Of course he's against the French Revolution where the people got fed up with the State Church that kept the King in power and declared bloody crusades against any groups of French people who opposed its authority.

[Botany]

110. He really is batshit crazy

1 out of 10 in the Netherlands will die from euthanasia and the

to kill them.

113. lol

I think maybe he's off his meds.

[glinda]

114. Kick this out to cyberspace and beyond!

[TNLib]

116. That statement makes no sense

is the governnment going to chop off religious peoples head or are mobs of enraged anti -religious people going to go around chopping off peoples heads.

[crunch60]

177. let's see..

The anti-religious head choppers will wear a black ribbon, and the Christians will wear, I dunno, maybe red, (definitely not PINK), just so we know whose head has to roll.

[Hugabear]

117. Many "End-Time" fundamentalists believe that Christians will be executed by beheading

They believe that after the "Rapture", there will be an "Antichrist" who will demand that everyone take the 'mark of the beast'. The catch is that if you take the 'mark of the beast', then you are automatically doomed to hell. Anyone who refuses to take the mark of the beast will be arrested and beheaded.

They believe this very strongly.

119. The Perfect Rebublican Presidential Canidate, I just donated to his campaign, he needs to stay in

race as long as possible.. Dear god it would be awesome for him to make the nominee!!

[malthaussen]

122. Politicians

Mr S often does not choose his words in a wise manner. I am not a supporter of any politician, and any person who can not speak wisely should not lead. The problem with speeches like his are that people will believe, react, and get aroused, agitated, and generally violent at least verbally, on both sides of the fence. There are several reasons why this situation occurs but I am just too disgusted with the situation to really come up with a civil solution, its too distracting.

[Bossy Monkey]

123. That's silly. Then what would the health-care death panels have to do? n/t

[Richard D]

124. I really really really really . . .

. . .hoped this would be from the Onion.

[stevenleser]

126. It's like clockwork

It's like clockwork. Everytime there is a change to the frontrunner in the Republican race for President, the new frontrunner says something absolutely bat$#!t crazy.

It's remarkable. They destroy their own momentum and electability right off the bat.

Who is running these campaigns? Daffy Duck and Elmer Fudd?

[valerief]

127. I'm so sick of their theater. nt

[Deep13]

129. Dammit, who told Santorum about Operation Pray & Chop?

[MiddleFingerMom]

130. ...but if we do & follow the path of President Obama & his overt hostility to faith in America...

.
.
.
... then we be-headed down that road.

FTFY.

Good thing I'm not soulless. I could write metaphorical rings around these
wishy-washy wacko hacks and really have them santoruming in their pants.

135. Oh, dear!

[louslobbs]

136. Just when I thought he couldn't get any more pathetic, he proves me wrong. I know there used to be

a crazy hospital in NY called Bellevue.......Is it still operating, and what does it take now days to have someone committed?

[Vehl]

140. ahahahaha

I could not stop laughing.
These people will take America back to the stone ages...if they come to power.

142. Please, President Obama

Do. You can start with people like Santorum, Bachmann, Gingrich, Rove, Cheney, Christie, Walker, Boehner, McConnell, and Palin.

Getting rid of them alone would help our country a lot more than a lot of suggestions. Destroy the malcontents, and a lot of shit would never arise again.

[Pakid]

143. Will the beheading be broadcast live?

I hope so. Think of all the great party's we can have. Instead of super bowl party we can have beheading party's. Pass the popcorn I can't wait!

[daligirl519]

199. I had the same idea.

Lets work on that.

[Glimmer of Hope]

145. I don't know whether to laugh or be afraid.

[HeiressofBickworth]

146. The Crusades, the Inquisition

and George H.W. Bush who said he didn't think athiests were even citizens, and now this crackpot. No, I think that it's the Christians who want to do the convert-or-die thing yet again. They are jealous they missed out on the fun and travel of the Crusades.

[PatrynXX]

147. all I can say is where fuck to the Republicans find these people...

Obama has no such war on religions, and of course the arrogant idiots here assume all religions are Christian. Um say we have this thing called Religious freedom. Quit pissing on it. Nevermind being in the over do it fear mongering while claiming environmental regulations is fear mongering... zzzzz

[provis99]

148. of course he references the French Revolution. He has a Napoleon complex.

with a little Torquemada thrown in.

[graywarrior]

149. Give an idiot a microphone and this is what you get

[Crunchy Frog]

150. One could only wish.

[blkmusclmachine]

152. Nutso.

Now imagine someone like this with the power to arrest/detain/assassinate US Citizens at whim.

[Jack Sprat]

154. That's enough, back in the strait jacket, Rick.

There's a snug padded bed waiting back at Happydale.

[NBachers]

157. The King of Hearts or the Made of Farts

[DinahMoeHum]

160. Neah neah-neah neah neah booga booga booga. . .

sheesh, what an asshole.

[unkachuck]

161. sanatorium, you should be ashamed of yourself....

....you and your pedophile-tolerating religious friends, trying to deny women necessary healthcare and good American citizens their civil liberties, is just plain abominable....what kind of an American are you?

....I'm starting to believe you're worse than slick-willard....

[crunch60]

176. Willard and Handel (formerly of Komen) are tight..humm

Karen Handel, was originally endorsed in her race by and received money from current GOP presidential contender Mitt Romney, with whom some sources suggest she remains closely allied. Romney, in turn, has suddenly become more anti-choice than thou and has promised a federal personhood amendment as well as to defund Planned Parenthood.

[Prana69]

162. Wow. No one brings the crazy like Santorum. Outstanding. nt

[allan01]

163. Santorum: Obama Has Put America On ‘The Path’ Of Executing Religious People By Decapitation

[47of74]

164. Time to get this out once again and put it to use

[Sparkly]

165. Great sign for Teabag Protest: "I came without my guillotine... THIS time."

[Maynar]

166. I used to think McPantload was bat shit crazy.

Then Palin proved me wrong. So I got to thinking Palin was batshit crazy. Then Bachmann proved me wrong. So I got to thinking Bachmann was batshit crazy. Then Ricky proved me wrong. Now I'm thinking Ricky is batshit crazy.

History tells me I'm likely to be proven wrong on that, as well. Shirley to the ghost of Leslie Neilsen, this can't go on.

Can it? I mean, when will it end?

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

168. Obama is now a William Ayers, Saul Alinsky radical, Kenyan Mau Mau, Muslim, French Jacobin.

They've got to be running out of crazy negative things to call him, the way Ann Coulter is running out of nutty titles for her books.

[AnnieBW]

170. Beheading Christians?

Nah, we'd rather just feed them to the lions.

[Kalidurga]

171. Someone said

if he was elected it would make him/her miss GW. I agree. GW was the kind of guy that if you didn't know how evil he is you would think he is a nice guy to attend a barbecue with have a few beers. Santorum on the other hand you can see that mean crazy look in his eyes a mile away.

[Rhiannon12866]

174. Does he mean that he thinks the president will decapitate himself?

[still_one]

175. The most disgusting thing is the media propagating the lies and slander coming from the republicans

On this issue

If they hear someone make a blatant lie do they have an obligation to point that out, but they don't because they want to create distortion

[Permanut]

178. I could be mistaken

but from the picture it looks like he's turning orange. Prolly just my monitor, or my colorblindness is kicking in.

[cbrer]

180. 34 Delegates and counting

This man is over the edge, and his Party is following him.

[GTurck]

182. LOL...

leave it to an a-literate to mistake The Terror with the French Revolution. The Terror sprung from the chaos but was mainly a way to get rid of social and political enemies as perceived by the collective (now my memory fails - damn). Some of the killed were clergy but clergy who had misused their offices against the people. Santorum is santorum!

[Botany]

184. But Rick wouldn't an all powerful God stop that from happening?

He could go ahead and have a rapture party and smite the devil Obama.

[olegramps]

185. The voice of a Fascist Opus Dei freak who echos the ranting of Hitler and Mussolini.

[Madmiddle]

187. The

scary part is that "Certified Crazy Santorum" is running for president and he just cleaned up in three states. All that's missing is a little mustache and he'll have to work on the passion some. He is the worst of the bunch of talentless crazies running on the far right of the barbwire fence.

[sufrommich]

193. I'm sure when some unstable right wing paranoid guy

that these assholes have scared the shit out of starts shooting, Santorum will be right there saying "who me?".

[Hubert Flottz]

195. He's trying to win those Michelle Bachmann voters in the tea party.

The Batshit Crazy branch.

[xocet]

196. Santorum is completely crazy...

Earlier I wrote that I though that there might have been an edit point at 0:45 in the TP video. A second video (on Breitbart's YouTube account) denies that: the transcript from ThinkProgress is accurate. I was caught by shaky YouTube video and Santorum's own inarticulate syntax.

The following two videos can be synchronized if the upper video is set to 0:34 and the lower video is set to 0:47. Assuming an equal speed of replay, there is a 13-second offset between the two recordings.

#!

Aside: the poster displayed in the OP could definitely be emended to read

NEVER CALL ME...SANE.

[glinda]

197. "Or Am Nuts" is an anagram for Santorum
