http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/02/25/santorum-obama-is-a-snob-who-wants-everybody-to-go-to-college/
GOP presidential candidate Rick Santorum once again attacked President Barack Obama on wanting students to go to college Saturday morning, calling the president a snob on the campaign trail in Troy, Michigan.
Santorum spoke the tea party group Americans For Prosperitys Michigan branch and received a round of applauds for his latest eye-brow raising statements.
President Obama wants everybody in America to go to college, what a snob, he said. There are good, decent men and women who work hard every day and put their skills to the test that arent taught by some liberal college professor. And trying to indoctrinate them.
Santorum doubled down on his comments from Thursday, saying the indoctrination going on at the university level is a harm to our country thanks to Obama.

Sadly, it's the only thing they have to offer for candidates as well.

Obviously it couldn't be a natural outcome of critical thinking and expanded horizons.
