It's to laugh:

Quote:

"Smart people" in America will never back conservative Republicans, or so says Rick Santorum – a conservative Republican whose verbal missteps are becoming as well-known as his hardline posturing on social issues.

Santorum, who ended up being Mitt Romney's closest rival for the 2012 Republican nomination, made the comment at the conservative Value Voters Summit in Washington.

"We will never have the media on our side, ever, in this country. We will never have the elite, smart people on our side," Santorum said in a speech to the gathering of conservative activists at a Washington hotel. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2012/sep/15/rick-santorum-smart-people

Apparently, stupid tho' he is about so many things, at least Santorum recognizes they'll only get the dumb people on their side!

Oops, I just noticed Santorum's idiotic remark has made its way into Mark's signature...sorry Mark, I'm just a bit slow on the uptake sometimes.

Yup, that was the same event where Romney and Lyin' Ryan were scheduled to appear with a guy who describes himself as a "terrorist". So they are, literally, "pallin' around with terrorists."

Mitt Romney, introducing his running mate: "Join me in welcoming the next President of the United States, Paul Ryan!"

Rappy's response? "You're lying, gullible ( believing in some BS you heard on msnbc ) or hard of hearing."

Funnier than shit that he can't deal with it. It wasn't a joke, little man. But that's okay, you'll survive.

Yeah, it was. But keep spinning the lies, Niki.

For your edification...no, wait, that's not possible...for the edification of OTHERS, here he is in all his glory:



Joke, eh? I don't see him laughing...I don't hear anyone else laughing...he's dead serious. That is, unless you think he was joking about never having the media on their side, either...

Oh, and to say it was a joke, you'll have to clip it so nobody hears what he says afterwards...FauxNews could probably help you with that one.

Wanna try again?

I guess sarcasm hadn't fully made its way out that far West yet.

The new Teapublican go-to excuse when something stupid is said:

"It was just a joke!"

I bet a few are even dumb enough to actually believe it. Oh, hi Rappy!


Note to anyone - Please pity the poor, poor wittle Rappyboy. He's feeling put upon lately, what with all those facts disagreeing with what he believes.

Truly amazing, isn't it? If Raptor and his buds were ever to admit anything anyone on the right did was dumb, they'd probably have a coronary. Or would their heads just explode?

Here's a dare: Can any of you righties even TRY to say something negative about ANYTHING on the right? I wanna see what happens if you try. But of course it won't happen, because every single thing in the world that anyone on the right has ever done is perfect...riiight.
