http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/rick-santorum-charleston-terrorismWhen Santorum said it wasn't up to the federal government, Raddatz fired back.
Youre a candidate for President, Raddatz said. Do you not have a position on this at all?
Im not a South Carolinian, Santorum said. And I think this is a decision
Its beyond South Carolina, dont you think? Raddatz interjected.
I would say that these are decisions that should be made by people, Santorum said. You know, I dont think the federal government or federal candidates should be making decisions on everything, and opining on everything. This is a decision that needs to be made here in South Carolina.
Santorum said he had an opinion but refused to reveal his stance when Raddatz pressed.
Why not just give your opinion, Weak? Weak is quick to argue with the Pope on global warming and he'll condemn gays at the drop of a hat. Yet on racism, he is ....well, Weak. How can a man that claims to be moral not speak out against racism and the symbols of racism? You are either moral or you're not. Santorum is truly an embarrassment.

He's gibbering pond scum with a holier-than-thou attitude. One day we'll see the FBI digging up the yards of all the places he lived.

it isn't up to the people? But a racist flag that represents destroying the USA is up to the people.
