What makes Rick Santorum an "Expert" on torture or the military?
When and where did he EVER serve in the military? How does he know everything there is to know about questioning of POWs? Has he EVER withstood torture?

If he wants to serve his country, maybe he should go through boot camp and AIT and then head out to a combat zone, ASAP?

This fool is a typical republican chickenhawk loudmouth. Show us your war face you privileged POS. Show us your military decorations.

3. He has the only credential you need to be a Republican expert on everything:
Profound ignorance.

The man is a walking textbook case for the Dunning-Kruger Effect.

13. How would someone who is mentally unbalanced expect to be...
elected to the highest office in the land, unless he's counting on 51% of the population being insane also?

How tramatized would your children be if you brought a corpse home for them to play with? Rick needs to find himself a good doctor before he hurts himself or anyone else.

If my parents had brought home a corpse for me to play with when I was a kid I would still be freaking out.

5. santorum is a champion POS conservanazi.
As with all true conservanazis, he's a military expert and a chickenhawk. Besides being a mysoginist, a homophobe and just an ordinary piece of shit, he's probably liked by a couple of conservanazi idiots. :puke:

7. Another Rovebot creating his own "Reality" as he goes along.
Reminds me of the ugly ass, repulsive, know it all, schoolhouse geek, who always needs to talk the loudest to get a tiny bit of attention.

Why is it that the GOP puts their most insecure, mentally unstable assholes, front and center at sElection time?

17. He has no experience or credibility in this area.
It's just that frothy mix of lies, misinformation, and bullshit that he spews that makes him so appealing to the wingnuts.

19. But...
Rick is one of the best of their best!

The Backwash Brigade would vote for a real turd, if it had that (R) in front of it's name.
