Santorum brought home stillborn child...bat**** crazy alert.

[1480]

Having gone it through it twice, it's not a fun experience. How people express grief and how they get over it is a private matter.

Its the fact that the media is choosing the loss of a child to highlight the fact that this man is pro-life is disgusting. Once again, the fair and balanced MSM is playing king maker.

The media should be aware of it anyway because Santorum used it to illustrate his position several times during his 2008 senatorial campaign. He's proud of it. Frankly, if you use it then it is fair game. If you feel it's use is disgusting then I would suggest your disgust be directed at Santorum himself for making it public in the first place.

I thought that FOX News had the fair and balanced tag line.

Agreed, while I think media sensationalization is definitely at work here, Santorum is the one that has made this public discourse in the first place - and in fact has made it impossible for this to not be public discourse, because he has used it to illustrate his position on public policy as an elected official. So, sorry, while this is distasteful, I have no sympathy for Santorum's privacy and feelings here - he chose to take this beyond private business and doesn't deserve to be treated sensitively over it. Granted, this isn't what we should be focusing on when discussing politics, of course.

Lo siento T and C.

I did not involve myself in that race, so I did not have knowledge of the fact. If it is as you state, than no.

Well, lets see if and how it is rehashed in the media. The MSM gave Obama a pass with his relationships to Rezko, Wright, and Ayers.

They had a road map and chose to throw it in the garbage.

I despise the MSM for giving Obama a pass on his shady past(you just mentioned the well known stuff), it alone should have kept him out of the white house.There is a difference between being a shady chicago political left wing hack and being an irrational nutjob like Santorum.

Showing myself up? No, I am pointing out what an irrational rube and fool Santorum is.

Like I implied, you are simply talking out of your arse.
In case you didn't notice Takeda who you think agrees with you put in some qualifications which you seem totally oblivious to.
I never thought I would defend a prick like Santorum.(only of course defending his actions not his politicising of those actions), but in this case you are so far over the line of ignorance that it simply needs saying.
Maybe when you grow up and see a bit more of life(and death) you may perhaps understand why you are most definately being a pillock on this paricular issue.

I have seen death, I don't let my emotions overrule rational though.Ignorance? No ignorance here, I am aware a stillborn baby is a sad thing and people do grieve differently.However, there is a line and bringing a dead baby home is crossing it.Not normal or rational, I guess if some joe blow nobody does it, well ok I guess(still crazy and not right) but this guy is running for President and it s a nut, story needs to spread to stop any further rise of him before he costs us the election.
