This will probably be a daily feature between now and the end of his first term in January 2017, but today's kickoff is a doozy (h/t Atrios):
"Freedom isn't to do whatever you want to do, it's to do what you ought to do."
Meanwhile, John Baer...not a Santorum fan.
- You'll be writing for the Occupy Wall Street Daily (circ. 112) by the time the election comes, don't bother.— jimmymack
- it's to do what you ought to do.....Ok, I'll bite. Tell me Rick what "ought" I do? Let you force your organized hocus pocus on all Americans?— chasing history
- I think he's talking about personal responsibility, chasing. — A Friend
- Yeah, like using birth control?!? — chasing history
- Freedom isn't to do whatever you want to do, it's to do what you can get others to subsidize for you.— RG
- Slick Rick is just the kind of Borrow and Spend, Big Government, "Do as I Say, Not as I Do" Faux Christian conservative the Tea Baggers can get fooled into voting for!— The Fundamentals of the Economy are Fine
- Let's choose:
Santorum: "Freedom isn't to do whatever you want to do, it's to do what you ought to do."
The left: Freedom isn't to do whatever you want to do, it's to do what we tell you to do.— jmc - Freedom isn't to do whatever you want to do, it's to exploit the lack of teeth a man can afford and demand others pay for his teeth while simultaneously taking $3mm out of the public coffers so you can stay employed a bit longer.— .bp-philly.
- Bunch just needs something else to cause him to ties his panites in a bunch.— Dutch-wayne
- Keep talking Rick. Your red-meat racist misogynist gang of believers loves it. Thankfully, the more you open that festering pie hole, the greater your smashing defeat will be, since the Amerikan Taliban are hardly a majority in this country - they just act like they are.— CiceroSpuriousDeodatus
- Bunch...I thought your employer was laying folks off....why are you still employed? There is no way, NO WAY, that you are not the first to go....— kelprod2
- Willy boy, why don't you do an article on why the gas prices are killing us, and why the Messiah won't allow off-shore drilling on Pacific, Atlantic gulf coast, and refuses to even discuss the Canadian pipeline. Free pass for the elitist president who is absolutely killing this country!— dogman5
- "the greater your smashing defeat will be" Thats fine. The Senate has a solid shot of switching hands, which would immediately make Obama a lame duck, but at least he'll be in office to answer for Obamacare.— RG
- As usual, Obama gets a pass. He's more extreme than Santorum on just about every issue. Just because the Philly left wing media ignores the truth, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.— AvoidSundanceVacations

The guy is way to conservative for me. Where are are the moderate republicans?
Why do we get pushed aside by the religious freaks?
