I’ve had enough face to face dealings with the man to know him.
You’ve chosen to not address the issues that make me question his conservatism and chosen to ignore the few simple questions that I have put to you.
We will just have to agree to disagree.
Even Ronald Reagan made mistakes, and would be the first one to admit that. We all make mistakes.
I did address your concerns. Feel free to let me know what else bothers you, but if you don’t mind here’s what I said about Santorum’s pro-life position, and 2nd amendment position:
“Rick Santorum not only gets good ratings because of his voting record, he also, unlike many politicians GETS THINGS DONE.
As I said in another post, Rick received an A+ rating from the NRA, higher than Ron Paul or Gingrich, and of course Romney, and here’s what Rick Santorum ACCOMPLISHED:
Santorum fought to keep gun companies in the U.S.A.! Santorum gets things done, because he is a figher!
Just ask the NRA CEO:
‘“He [Rick Santorum] was the most effective advocate of bringing it [legislation to protect gun companies from frivolous lawsuits] to the floor and getting a vote scheduled. He used his influence to get it to the floor. Without that, we would have lost every American gun company.”
– Wayne LaPierre, CEO – National Rifle Association, October 25, 2006’

Now let’s go to pro-life. He WALKS the WALK! I don’t know why folks, while they might not agree with Rick, can’t accept that he has reasons why he does some things, when he WALKED the WALK.
Rick Santorum’s own wife didn’t want him to endorse Specter, Rick said, but he did it because he knew Specter would win, and Specter did win by an excellent margin. By keeping the Senate majority, the Republicans had control of the Judicial Committee, rather than the Dems. If the Dems had control, they would not allow Bush’s judicial nominees to go to the floor for an up or down vote.
Whether you agree with Rick, or not (his own wife did not), at least trust his motives, especially when he has WALKED the pro-life WALK, at least twice.”
