Clarifying the truth for Laura Chapin...
“Santorum Promises SC Primary Victory ”
"It's been clarified about oh, 150,000 times, so I'll clarify 150,001," Santorum said. "I've never said I wanted to ban birth control. I wouldn't vote for it. This is sort of the sad part that comes in, with folks who have an agenda aren't really interested in the truth."
But he said the Supreme Court should not have overturned local laws concerning birth control, and he said he is firmly against federal subsidies that provide contraception.
"The Supreme Court in a variety of different cases, Roe V. Wade being principal one most people know, has created rights in the constitution that don't exist, and has no basis."

Sam of Florida, not unlike millions of other sheep here in America, get their news from the propaganda machines of the MSM ....ie: CNN, CBS, MSNBC, et al, and let's not forget those characters, Sean "hand-me-chicken-s--t" Hannity and and Bull O'Reilly from the Fox News Channel, who promote only America's corporate establishment.
I honestly do not know where to get my news these days, that is, with the exception of the horse's mouth:
Nearly 30 Bipartisan Jobs Bills Await a Vote in Democrat-controlled Senate; More on the Way

Yet, any posting that comes from the Obama Administration has been proven BS to the max!

sam of FL _ What a bunch of accusations...
"They gave all the jobs away to India and China"
MAN FROM GE was supposely appointed to create jobs in America. GE is building in China to help them build their own airoplane. GE health imagineny machines in China too. That requires GE to give their technology to the Chinesse.
i'm not going to answer the rest of your dripple about Republican party. I don't write books...

Screw the Communist, Oooops, I mean the Republican party. (Same sh*t) They run on lies, deception, corruptions, greed racist motives and self personal profit. They screwed the country and the economy up, not shifting blame as if were stupid enough to forget. They gave all the jobs away to India and China. Work shady secret deals with the Saudis to raise gas because they own most of the American stock in it. And blocked every effort to stimulate the economy and create jobs because they say it cost too much. It’s OK the spend tax dollars as long as it’s them doing it, and doing it for the wrong reasons. WAKE UP AMERICA. The devil is deceptive. He tells a lie enough times and you begin to believe it. A MESSAGE FROM: Room305(dot)com

Poor brucetee _ Still OFF TOPIC DISCUSSING NEWT. Going to call me a shiel for discussing Newt ? obuma loaned $$$ trillions to foreign banks. How many American jobs did that create ? What happens if we are paid back 50 cent on a dollar or less ?
I explained why Newt was unselfish. Surely you can read. Other than that you are _ mute _ of my response to your last comment. Answer the rest of my previous comment then I will finish answering your latest one.
Sounds fair... You run from comments SO OFTEN like a scared rabbit.
Sure you want to watch debate just starting...

many things can be said about newt"unselfish" is NOT one of them.
it wont matter much after south carolina he;ll be among the also ran,s.and done.

Opposition to birth control is hardly extreme. That does not end unborn llves.
Obama's pro-abortion policies are even more extreme and deadly radical. They murder unborn babies in the womb.
How sad when journalistic biases blind the eyes to the obvious.

brucetee _ How does Newt relate to this article ? You are always talking about my OFF TOPIC comments. WHAT DOES SARAH ? Obviously I can talk about anything on any TOPIC just as you do...
1. You bring up stupid argument of Sarah's misstates. Good God O' Mighty obuma owns misstates. Worse of all perhaps OIL LEAK IN GULF & MORE DEBT OF BUSH IN 8 YEARS WITH OBUMA DOING IN LESS THAN THREE YEARS. Is fact obuma doing more golf already than Bush a mistake considering liberals jumped ALL OVER BUSH FOR THAT ? Just punch in "obama's mistakes" you'll find pages:

2. "...a serial philander who left the public service under a cloud"
I've been watching you repeat and repeat same thing in many comments. WHEN DID ONCE BECOME __"serial philander "__ ???
What "cloud" ? Newt stepped down over Bill C. impeachment and loss of seats expectation. Newt was re-elected. All 70 + charges by ethic committee was DROPPED but one and IRS issue was cleared by court. A few minor technical issues Newt plead to.
No "clouds".
obuma knew Nov. 2, 2010 would be BIG, BIG, BIG loss for Democrat Party. BUM stayed and it happened. Newt did the unselfish RIGHT THING for his party...

sarah palin ? she;s had almost as many gaffes and misspeakes as that noted gaffe machine michele bachmann.
on another front,the newtster is bewailling negative ad;s being run against him.this from someone,while a member of congress, engaged in nothing but dirty and cut throat tactics.now that the tables are turned he;s crying foul.such hypocrisy.

This whole USN & WR site appears to have taken on a George Soros type, "Media Matters" facade.
in other words .....more cesspool-oriented editorial than I'm willing to subject myself to.
I will be watching for it's demise.
