Frothy Ricky defending Scumbag Sammy and both are scared of teachers in red shirts

Former Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum told a Wichita audience Monday that the “future of the free world” hinges on the upcoming election between Gov. Sam Brownback and House Minority Leader Paul Davis.

“The left doesn’t want a successful governor doing big things that are conservative, so they’ve come after him,” Santorum said.
Santorum urged the crowd to “light up” social media and put Brownback stickers on their cars, even if they were worried about getting the glue remnants off after the election.

“OK, I’m sorry, the future of the free world is at stake, and you’re worried about it sticking to your car,” he said.

Santorum, now a producer of Christian and conservative-themed movies, drew an analogy from the “Lord of the Rings” films to illustrate his view of Brownback’s political opponents.

Former Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum told a Wichita audience Monday that the “future of the free world” hinges on the upcoming election between Gov. Sam Brownback and House Minority Leader Paul Davis.

“This race is important not just for Kansans, it’s important for the country,” Santorum, a former Pennsylvania senator, told about 100 Brownback supporters who gathered at the Warren Theatre East for a Brownback rally and a screening of the 1940 film “Knute Rockne All American.” The movie featured a young Ronald Reagan and earned the future president his nickname “the Gipper” for the character he played.

Outside the theater, about 60 demonstrators gathered, mostly dressed in the red shirts that have become symbolic of opposition to Brownback’s signing of a bill that strips teachers of protection from being arbitrarily fired.
