We know Santorum is against birth control, single mothers, women in combat, gays, etc.. but now he has come out against college?!?!?!

On the president’s efforts to boost college attendance, Santorum said, “I understand why Barack Obama wants to send every kid to college, because of their indoctrination mills, absolutely … The indoctrination that is going on at the university level is a harm to our country.”
wtf?

They're kidding us, right? This guy doesn't really have a shot at the presidency, right? Right? :wtf: :crazy:

college is an indoctrination center? college prepared me for my career. i would never have been able to take gross anatomy without college...grad school taught me how to think critically, so of course santorum would be against that.
i absolutely 100% hope and pray that santorum gets the nomination so the voters can have the showdown that we have been waiting for for a long time. people will either vote for the god based anti woman and anti immigrant and anti minority and anti gay agenda or they will vote for the more moderate agenda..
if santorum gets the nomination the november election is gonna be a bloodbath of epic proportions...

Does he?
From what I gather, Santorum represents the far-right of the Republican Party. Even if he does manage to muster 30% support from the most right-wing Republicans, what are his actual chances when moderates and liberals go to the polls in November? It seems to me that a Santorum would pretty much guarantee Obama a second term. In fact I can't see any Republican candidate other than Romney having a real shot at the Presidency.
Moving further to the right isn't going to win the Republicans this election. Extremely conservative voters were never voting Democrat to begin with. Instead, the Republican Party seems to be doing a stellar job scaring the hell out of moderate voters who might have actually helped them regain the oval office.
That's a fantastic point

Re the college is bad idea - I was previously married to a Jehovah's Witness and they totally agreed with this - that the children would be led astray by being explosed to all that "worldly" thinking - not to mention what a waste of time it was when they could be out knocking on doors instead as time was running out before Armeggedon. It's the main motive behind all the home schooling - don't risk exposing your children to any potentially conflicting ideas. And they're afraid of Muslims????
These people take this stuff deadly seriously - and want nothing less than to get the rest of us limited by their beliefs. I beat it away from my ex before my boys were brainwashed - it's a lot harder to escape an entire nation heading in that direction.
We all need to fight HARD.
What the fuck is happening to your country?
The options you have on the right should scare the pants from all open minded people and looks from my perspective to be a million times worse than Bush/Cheney/Rove.
You guys really need to mobilise the masses to vote in 2012 because it's not just your country at stake, these guys will fuck up the entire world.
I highly doubt he would win if he was nominated. I certainly wouldn't vote for him.
Hijacked by the religious right. very disturbing.
kinda feel bad for the "real" conservtives/right of center people. take back your finckin party why don't you.
After the tea party came out and got popular, all of the factions of the republican party tried to hijack it. It looks like the religious right has won that battle.
Even though he has his flaws, for republicans, Mitt Romney is the most electable candidate of theirs in the general election. Instead of going for the win with a moderate republican, it seems like they have doubled down on crazy.

Santorum is anti-college. He is against college, junior colleges, technical college, four-year universities, and schools for the blind.
He hates women, and he hates gays- so he sleeps by himself.
He also hates small fury animals, and generally dislikes anything that lives.
Thank you for posting this valuable topic, OP.
Im sorry, that is funny.

It's not the only way, of course not. I have just found it to be the most helpful so far in my life.
You are quite welcome... and thank you once again for contributing absolutely nothing to this thread or any other thread on this forum.

back in the "olden" days college was basically self study sitting around and shooting the shit like a big think tank...
I find some people's diploma papers are actually worthless, I should have like triple honorary PhD's next to some clowns.
I was hoping the economic situation and the reality that Obama easily won the election 3 years ago would have woken up the republican party. Unfortunately, they continue to pander to the far right that allows them to win a primary with rhetoric, but it doesn't help the party or the country in the long run.
You are welcome.
If it helps you to feel better, I sent a campaign donation to Milbarge/Fitz-Hume 2012.
They are America's only hope.
Of course it isn't... and it's not the best path for some people to take. Being educated does not equal being a critical thinker or being a good person. But, it probably is the easiest way to be exposed to other ways of thinking, and to meet people with differing opinions at a young age.
But to say that university's may be "harmful to our country" is outright moronic.

Hey, they figured out a way to avoid a nuclear war, and to improve relations with Russia after the cold war. I have higher expectations for them then any other potential ticket

You forgot to mention that he loves the idea of Satan. Satan will scare us all back into submission. Unless you were being sarcastic..oh right! I can play too...Santorum hates Satan!
maybe some studies and polls have been done on that
"Born in Virginia, Rick Santorum was raised primarily in Butler, Pennsylvania. He obtained an undergraduate degree from Pennsylvania State University, an M.B.A. from the University of Pittsburgh, and a law degree degree from the Dickinson School of Law. Santorum worked as an attorney at Kirkpatrick & Lockhart."
"What a snob!"
