"This was a politicization of science," Santorum said, of the science behind global warming. "You hear all the time, the left – 'Oh, the conservatives are the anti-science party.' No we're not. We're the truth party. The absurdity and the politicization and the manipulation of data, why? Because the left is always looking for a way to control you. They're always trying to make you feel guilty so you'll give them power so they can lord it over you."

"We're throwing Israel under the bus because we know we're going to be dependent upon OPEC," Santorum said. "We're gonna say, Oh Iran, we don't want you to get a nuclear weapon, wink, wink, nod, nod, go ahead just give us your oil. Folks, the President of the United States is selling the economic security of this country down the river right now."
The thing that Santorum has that Willard Milton Romney and Newton Leroy Gingrich don't have is that he believes this shit. Romney says whatever is necessary to the please the crowd in front of him and Gingrich says what ever he's feeling at the moment - which is subject to near constant change - just ask his ex-wives.
But man if Santorum gets a little Mo and starts throwing down the wingnuttery on Science and the Neoconservatism on foreign policy - WATCH OUT GOTP. He could burn your damn house down. But I guess that is why there is a fire department. A whole lot of crazy there.
