By SAHIL KAPUR Published SEPTEMBER 5, 2014, 5:19 PM EDT
Rick Santorum penned a blistering opinion piece for Politico magazine on Friday mocking Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) as a flip-flopper on U.S. military action against the militant group ISIS.
"Did Senator Paul just hire John Kerry's speechwriter? Is he really trying to convince Americans that he was against U.S. intervention before he was for it?" wrote the former senator and 2012 presidential candidate.
Santorum, a longtime supporter of U.S. interventionist policies, pointed to Paul's change of heart in support of air strikes against ISIS, as expressed in a TIME opinion piece by Paul on Thursday. Santorum pointed to the Kentucky Republican's voting record and past remarks to highlight his longstanding skepticism of interventionism.
Santorum's op-ed was titled, "Will the Real Rand Paul Please Stand Up?" He opened: "The Kentucky senator is trying to tell us hes not an isolationist. That dog won't hunt."

I give up, posting pics here is almost impossible/well there it is, but it makes no sense the way it is done here
Imagine someone so dumb, so immature and uninformed that they would consider, let alone vote, for any of these bozos.
It is scary that almost half of America is that dumb and childish.
