Crazy Rick accuses the president of "un-American activities" & nobody thinks to ask WHAT activities?

Crazy Rick accuses the president of "un-American activities, " and nobody thinks to asks WHAT activities he means?

Mr. Santorum’s stop in Sioux City was his first campaign rally on a busy New Year’s Day of campaigning — both on the stump and in the news media. He appeared on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday morning, gaining the kind of national television exposure that has eluded him for months as he languished at single digits in the polls.

He became emotional at times during his remarks at the Daily Grind, a coffee shop a few blocks from the Missouri River, especially when he spoke of the meaning his campaign had to his family. Criticizing President Obama for “absolutely un-American activities,” he said he was running to ensure he left the country in better shape for his children.

“This is the most important election of my life. This is where America’s freedom is at stake,” he said. “I’m asking you to stand up for your honor.”

His listeners greeted him with a hearty round of applause. And as he made his way through the crowd, stopping to shake hands and sign autographs, he wore a beaming smile on his face.

That's like three strikes to Republicnas (who are notoriously bad at math, after all)

"Un-American"--that term hasn't really been bandied around since the 1950s.

Since Perry has decided to hang in for a bit, to play the good ole boy spoiler, we've got two nitwits named Rick in this clusterfuck of a GOP contest.

Being President While Black.


In Santorum's perfect white-bread world, there are no Black people cluttering up the place.
