As a matter of fact, I named my son Santorum Sinclair,
because I knew I wouldn’t be there to help him along.
So I gave him that name, and I said “Goodbye.”
I knew he’d have to get tough or die.
And it’s that name that helped to make him strong.
And, lest there be any further concern, the First Amendment has been incorporated against the states.
Hey, not all of us!
Show some concern. He’s an obvious example of what that water will do to you.
Well, of course I won’t put Kasich in this thread, for he is the Prince of Light and Hope:
A Fox commentator says that Democrats only care about the water in Flint because they hope it will give them more black voters.
Some decades ago American Heritage published a column, I believe it was by John Steele Gordon, which claimed that the surname Hooligan had been sullied so badly by the late 19th century that every clan member who was not a career criminal changed his name to Houlihan. Just a suggestion for the other Santora.
google-translate returns “Holies” for “santorum”, from Latin. Presumably an alt spelling of “sanctorum”.
Not sure how to wrap my head around that. Sacred sodomy?
Verily, Brother eschereal, it is thy turn in the barrel.
An alternative theory is that Flint was a small-scale experiment to cause enough brain damage to create more Republican voters.
The really stupid thing is that all of the children with gay parents could be bullied and ostracized if Santorum got his way.
Hell, that very rationale was mentioned in the Supreme Court case that legalized gay marriage:
[Quote=Justice Anthony Kennedy]
Excluding same-sex couples from marriage thus conflicts with a central premise of the right to marry. Without the recognition, stability, and predictability marriage offers, their children suffer the stigma of knowing their families are somehow lesser. They also suffer the significant material costs of being raised by unmarried parents, relegated through no fault of their own to a more difficult and uncertain family life. The marriage laws at issue here thus harm and humiliate the children of same-sex couples.

This is a usage of “comfort” that I am not quite acquainted with.
I disagree. I don’t think he is at all confused or fearful. I think he is just a small-souled hateful person.
Nor am I and I firmly insist on remaining so.
Sarah Palin blames her son’s arrest for waving a gun and beating up his girlfriend while drunk on…her son? Because of the conservative principle of personal responsibility, law and order and family values? No, of course not. It’s Obama’s fault!
Carly Fiorina took some kids on a field trip to a botanical gardens and posed them in front of anti-abortion propaganda posters. She might actually be the worst of a terrible lot.
From the Fiorina campaign(quoted in the article).
Those kids had a choice? I wonder how the campaign fooled the “adult supervisor” into going along with this?
That adult supervisor damn well better be getting an earful from those parents. It would only make me slightly less angry if my kid was being tricked into posing in front of a candidate or a cause that I agreed with.
I don’t get what this means. The lead turns white people black?
CNN just carried the story. The claim is Fiorina was interacting with the kids at a Koi pond and they followed her (the whole bunch? four year olds? really?) to the abortion rally.
Not explained is why she didn’t consider the topic a bit too adult for such young kids and allowed them to stay.
