OP
Ricky SansScrotum is responsible for the bad joke that is his candidacy.

Whether it was Samantha Power or Reverend Wright, anytime somebody said something stupid, Obama was immediately held responsible and forced to reject, denounce and disassociate himself from the offensive speaker.

he is a bad joke.
You know, (reporters) sit there and they say nothing, while for 20 years (President Obama) sits in a church with a guy who is a racist, Santorum says. And somehow or another Foster Friess is now who I am? This is just crap.
Here's what I love. This was his quote to National Review Online. I ask: Where the hell was he back in 2008, when the press was freakin' OBSESSED with Rev. Wright? I love how they always claim the "liberal" media ignores all the Obama "scandals." My god, 2008 was INSANE with the fake outrage. Rev. Wright! Bitter gun/god people! Michelle's Whitey tape! Lipstick on a pig!
I get so freakin' sick of the GOPers playing like they're being victimized by the mean old press. Just shut the hell up, Rick. Enough already.
