1. You really expect anything from this religious nutjob?

He'd push his wife in front of a bus if it saved his own life.

2. Santorum is a user and couldn't

care less about that child, except to get votes.

4. "Homeschooling for Disabled" in Haiti

Lock them in a one room hut, tie them to a chair, and leave them alone all day. I worked with a disabled boy who lived through that.

Not everyone around world, or in this country, as the $$$$$$ to homeschool their disabled kids like Pope Ricky does.

5. Let see...

1 - Santorum no longer a Senator so where was he speaking.

2 - That appears to be his wife and daughter, who is disabled.

The OP smells fishy? Someone highjack a old timers account?

6. Don't know about the photo but he's been vocal in opposition. Via Glenn Beck.

A President Santorum was and is unthinkable.

7. Anybody know what his ostensible reason is for opposing the disability treaty? n/t
