Did you think/feel that way when the left was crucifying Palin for not being ashamed of her Down Syndrome son?

Using this, Santorum’s child, as a reason for your disdain is just like the Left.

Spin it any way that makes you feel better.

“Santorum hisself holding her at a campaign rally all dresed up like a little doll.”

Parents usually do this with little girls...dressing them up like little dolls. It’s one of the reasons clothing retail still makes money.

If anything that affects a child affects you then you’re following the liberal agenda. It’s for the children after all. RME.

If this is the reason you have problems with Santorum than you haven’t looked at his record. Santorum is the most socially conservative candidate running on the GOP ticket. I don’t see him as fiscally conservative as I’d like but he’s no worse than Romney and Newt, imo.

I don’t think Santorum has a shot at the GOP nom and even less a shot in the general against Obama. But to trash him for loving his child, not being ashamed of his child, is so low it’s surprising from someone who claims to be a conservative. JMO

No, I didn’t. You are comparing apples and oranges and it doesn’t stand up. It isn’t even in the same ballpark.

Really? Then YOU answer the question I asked. Would YOU expose your child to mortal danger to win an office? I am not the one ‘using’ his child. HE is.

Are you logged in? Can you not understand plain English? Please point out anywhere I said he was ‘ashamed’ of her. Which again, is so far way from the original point that you have lost track of common sense.

What I WILL say is that in his eagerness to PROVE that he loves his daughter and is NOT ashamed of her, he showed an amazing lack of good judgement by showing her off to crowds and putting her in danger to benefit himself. Who is the vile one here?
What stops you from realizing how selfish and self-centered this act was?
