Gregory (in a huge surprise) corrected him 2 or 3 times. Santorum was a veritable fountain of horseshit, a smarter Michele Bachmann. I hope he kicks ass tomorrow. That would really put a monkeywrench in the works for the Republican Party.

It is pretty gross to hear about what it means. Then again, he is a Republican.

Very unfortunate name. Like Gross. Or Schitt.
