Rick Santorum is one of the bigger idiots on our national political scene, and always has been.

So, it's no surprise that the gibbering dummkoph just got blindsided by . . . his own campaign slogan! :awe:

Seems he didn't know how strikingly similar it was to the title of a poem by Langston Hughes, a black, gay socialist!

When told this, did little Ricky stand up and own his interpretation of his own slogan anyway? No, of course not!

He just cut and ran like the pandering little weasel he is!
Santorum by and large stayed on message but was tripped up a bit when a student asked him if he knew that the choice of his slogan, "Fighting to make America America again," was borrowed from the "pro-union poem by the gay poet Langston Hughes."

"No I had nothing to do with that," Santorum said. "I didn't know that. And the folks who worked on that slogan for me didn't inform me that it came from that, if it in fact came from that."

The student, whose name was not immediately available, was referring to the poem "Let America Be America Again." When asked a short time later what the campaign slogan meant to him, Santorum said, "well, I'm not too sure that's my campaign slogan, I think it's on a web site."

It was also printed on the campaign literature handed out before the speech.
Santorum. Just try not to get any on 'ya. D:

lol. I can understand not knowing the title of the poem being the same, but one should be aware of their own Slogans.

Ha, pretty much this. "Uh, I'm not sure if that's even my slogan. I think it's on a website somewhere." Meanwhile it's printed on everything around you.

What a douchenozzle.

shouldn't situational awareness be a prerequisite for civil service? As in knowing when the joke is on you?

Typical Radical Religious Republican

In case the P&N Republican supporters of him conveniently forgot:

In 2003, then-Sen. Santorum came under fire for equating homosexuality with incest.

"If the Supreme Court says that you have the right to consensual gay sex within your home, then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest, you have the right to adultery.

You have the right to anything," he told the Associated Press. CNN wrote that Santorum "made clear he did not approve of 'acts outside of traditional heterosexual relationships.' "

Pennsylvania's Log Cabin Republicans called his remarks "alarming."

I remember him being a PA Senator and abusing the state's charter school system to the tune of something like $80k.

He was having his 46 kids getting free computers and other resources from the state's online charter school.....while being a full-time Virginia resident for over 2 years.

Edit:

Oops....just looked it up:

$100,000

Reporter- Senator Santorum, how do you respond to the controversial statement made by, your Running Mate, Bachman on yesterdays Today Show?

Santorum- Bachman? I'm not too sure that's my Running mate, I think it's on a web site.
