Santorum: Perry Is Soft On Marijuana

[LetTimmySmoke]

Source: TPM

Rick Santorum, who has stepped up his attacks on Rick Perry in the last two debates, now is accusing the Texas governor of being soft on drugs.

In his book, Fed Up!, Perry wrote that while he did not believe drugs like marijuana should be legal, he emphatically supported the right of states like California to legalize it themselves.

.......

Santorum swooped in to attack. “Governor Perry was quite clear too in his recently published book, that the definition of marriage should be left up to 50 different state interpretations,” a spokesman told Rubin. “It’s certainly Gov. Perry right to believe marriage can be redefined at the state level, that marijuana can be legalized and that tax dollars should be used to give illegal aliens special college tuition rates, but that’s completely out of touch with what most Americans believe.”

1. Well, he may be soft, but at least he's not frothy . . . .

:silly:

[Joe Shlabotnik]

10. LOL, whatever do you mean?...perhaps I'll google Santorum n/t

[boppers]

27. It's difficult to get frothy when one is soft.

Santorum is like that.

[arcane1]

2. That statement will give Perry more votes than Santorum n/t

[BiggJawn]

3. I've heard smoking too much Boo will do that to you...

Oh, look, Rick Santorectum is getting all in a "froth"...

[Downwinder]

4. Best thing I've ever heard about Perrry.

[SoapBox]

5. Ya...I'll just bet that they are ALL "soft"...

if ya get my drift.

[asjr]

6. Little Ricky had better be careful. He just

might get kicked out of kindergarten for saying things like that.

[LadyHawkAZ]

7. Got a real hard-on for homosexuality though. n/t

[bighughdiehl]

8. In a nutshell....

Santorum's douchebaggery on this point is a microcosm
of the Hypocrisy of the Republican party.
Endless War-good
Warrantless wiretaps-good
Torture-good
draconian laws about what people
consume and who they fuck in their own homes-VERY GOOD
but reining in the widespread excesses of Wall Street and
corporate America-that's BIG GUMMINT
pure stinkin hypocrisy!

[polichick]

9. Finally, something I like about Perry.

[southmost]

11. question is will Perry now get hard on santorum?

Eww I'm better off not knowing

[DLnyc]

12. Perry is probably soft all the time.

[AlbertCat]

13. Santorum's brain is softer than any pothead's I know.

GOP sparring is like a game show:

WHO'S MORE DELUDED?!

[Kennah]

14. It's a Dick War! And there's only one way to settle this--Greco-Roman Wrestling

[alp227]

15. Ron Paul = a lot softer n/t

[neoconn]

16. This thread has me cracking up!!

LOL

[provis99]

17. Santorum doesn't need pot; just being himself is like being stoned all the time.

[tonekat]

18. But sadly lacking in any good vibes.... N/T

[saras]

19. Stoned on government BZ, maybe. Or PCP, or huffing solvents. Nothing good.

[Iggo]

20. Frothy mixture.

That's all's I'm sayin'.

[prevere54]

21. Nothing Like GOP Style Small Gumint, Hey Rick?

Where Big Brother can tell you what you're allowed to smoke or otherwise put in your own body.

Looks like the same kind of "small government" that controls what a woman can do with her own uteris.

Yep.. Any more "small gummint" guys like you, and we might as well just all report to prison.

Interesting that you and your control freak Nazi ilk always claim to speak for The American People.

But, if that were true, we'd all be living in the Middle Ages.

[pacalo]

22. From what I've seen & heard from him, he's more likely to be soft on crack.

[otohara]

23. What A Dumbass - America Loves Weed

Breaking News Rick, even republican's smoke it - maybe he thinks they don't.

[On the Road]

24. If Perry Were Smart,

he would charge Santorum with being soft on states' rights.

[Demonaut]

25. my girl gets pissed because I get soft on alcohol, or whiskey dick is preferred name

[Honeycombe8]

26. To me, that means that Perry is an extremist about state's rights.

It actually means that he's being consistent with his viewpoint, unlike a lot of politicians. For instance, someone who is pro-life but is against federal funds to assist poor single mothers, or is pro-capital punishment. It can be explained away, but it's difficult and a bit inconsistent.

Perry seems to be pro-states' rights, even when that right is not popular.

I doubt the Pubicans see it that way, though.

[Uncle Joe]

28. So apparently Sanitarium is soft on States' Rights.

Thanks for the thread, LetTimmySmoke.
