Rick Santorum is an Idiot |
|
A funny story has come off of the website for Senator Santorum. If you don't know who he is, Rick Santorum is a Senator from Pennsylvania, who is a hard core republican and a die hard supporter of Bush's social security plan, also I am guessing he is running for president in 2008. So Mr. Santorum put an online poll on his website that asked "Do You Support the Creation of Voluntary Personal Retirement Accounts as part of Social Security Reform?" The Choices were " Yes, Social Security Should Be Reformed to include Personal Retirement Accounts for Individuals" or "No, Social Security should not be reformed to include personal retirement accounts for individuals." So we can assume that Mr. Santorum was trying to use this poll to justify his position or to prove to some people that the idea was really popular. Well, things didn't work out for the dear senator. Results were 9.2% yes and 90.8% no, which is probably the opposite of what he had expected. Well, soon after the poll was put up and these results took shape, the poll was taken down and now the results are no where to be found on his website. Lucky for us, someone captured the image of the poll before it was removed.

15. The most hated Virginia-dwelling man in PA |
|
There has been some tv coverage of "spreading Santorum" town hall meetings around PA in which Ricky -- the third most powerful man in the Republican party -- tries to sell his Lord and Savior Georgeus Bush's "plan" -- and he is just pitiful when he has to face non-Bushista crowds.
As people asked tough questions and were openly critical, Ricky got all flustered and pissy and was reduced to making little faces and rolling his eyes. Pathetic. Maybe next time it will be only pre-screened crowds, or Little Ricky will bring along water cannons and police dogs.
