He is NOT a solid fiscal, small-government conservative.
Yes, he is socially conservative and would like to do away with contraceptives.
He is one of those compasionate conservatives. Remember George Bush?
Conservatives are naturally compassionate. It is part of what makes us who we are. We try to live by our values, many of which derive from our Christian beliefs. However, unlike Dubya, Santorum doesn't use the word "compassionate" as a qualifier. He also recognizes that true compassion frequently involves tough love.
Bush never understood conservatism, seeing it as hard line and somewhat extremist, and therefore tried to soften it. Bush spoke in euphemisms, for example coining the term "war on terror" not being willing to describe an existential enemy for what it was. Santorum simply calls it radical Islam.
Do your homework and understand the difference.
You're a fake.
I don’t like Santorum at all; he is all big government, establishment GOP and has a rather disagreeable Jimmy Carter type personality, without the smile.
However, I’m really glad that Romney got knocked back, even though two of caucuses were not binding and Gingrich wasn’t even in one of them.
Maybe the GOP will have to rethink the inevitability of Romney, who is a truly odious person and should be nowhere near the Presidency. We’ve already had a few years of one odious person and we don’t need another.
If the GOP hadn’t been pushing Romney from the start, he would never have gotten as far as he has, because he really has nothing to offer.
You keep repeating this lie. Santorum isn't going to take away your condoms, which is apparently what you care about most in the world.
Are you sure you're a conservative?
