"Watching President Obama apologize last week for America's arrogance - before a French audience that owes its freedom to the sacrifices of Americans - helped convince me that he has a deep-seated antipathy toward American values and traditions"says former (hurray!) Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum in a Philadelphia Enquirer editorial titled The Elephant in the Room. Of course the problem with any elephant in the room is not that it's difficult to notice, but that the room tends to fill up with shit rather rapidly.
Of course nothing helped Sanitorum be convinced of anything, he's just, like any elephant, looking for whatever fodder he can find so that he can, as elephants do, digest it and turn it to dung. Conviction is what you call the straw you're grasping at when you're afraid of drowning.
The fact that president Obama told the French we can sometimes come across as arrogant is a simple statement of truth. We can -- and Santorum certainly illustrates it by pointing out how the French owe us their freedom, while ignoring that we owe the French the same debt. Of course only such an elephant's ass as he would require the French to grovel and eat up such merde as we feel fit to excrete -- and in perpetuity. His own arrogance would be a model for the Sun King.
Of course he fails to note that Obama also called Europeans arrogant as well, which renders the former Senators "convincing evidence" nugatory as well as dishonest. But what "value
s and traditions" is Santy talking about here other than arrogance itself if Obama is admitting that yes, we can be perceived as overbearing and pushy?Actually I'm getting tired of treating this man's shit as worthy of comment -- as though he weren't a tin-horn blowhard without the wit or talent to do anything but cut bait for the Republican dementia mongers. You're an elephant's asshole Santorum; you and the Fox you rode in on.

Santorum is one of the worst ignorant blow-hards to have served the public in federal gov. I believe that HE actually believes this shit.
And that's the problem -- he and his ilk actually think they are god's gift to humanity: our saviors from mediocrity.
The problem is they are the self-righteous imbeciles that are bringing this nation to its knees.
If they didn't get so much publicity, they wouldn't be so influential. How much more evidence do we need that the "liberal press" is slavishly subservient to their corporate overlords?
Well said. Santorum is out but not gone and he still manages to make me cringe at his every word.
As long as Obama continues to say and do things that aggravate and annoy Rick, it'll reinforce for me that our new President is doing something right.
Good way to look at it.
