Excuse us for thinking that Santorum isn't a credible "anti-elitist,working-class hero" (which I know that he wants to be perceived as) when he himself has been a huge beneficiary of higher education (among other things).
Which has nothing to do with the subject.
Uh...this isn't about agreeing with Santorum or not on this subject. What the hell am I supposed to elaborate on here? He thinks it's snobby to think that someone has to go to be successful. I agree. What needs to be clarified? The discussion here is over the idea that Santorum said it's snobby to go to college. He didn't say that. At all. But that's been the misconception from the very second he uttered the comment and it comes from people that simply don't like "my candidate." God, I wonder why...
I think quite a few people here need to get something through their very thick skulls: this isn't about "attacking" people who don't like "my candidate." I've been involved in politics for quite some time even though I'm young. I've liked Rick Santorum from the very start. If you don't think that I've accepted that people don't like the guy then that's your problem. People here need to get the hell over themselves because it takes a massive ego to think that I care to attack you for not liking "my candidate." I couldn't possibly care less. I really don't care to win over a group of guys on a stupid Internet political forum. If I spent my time just attacking people for not liking Santorum, I'd literally have no other posts on any other topic. I have a very long list of better things to do than spend my time dwelling on Santorum haters.
Pointing out when you're wrong about what "my candidate" has said doesn't mean I'm "attacking" you for not liking him. That's nothing more than whining on your part because you dislike that I've called out your misunderstanding (at best) or disingenuous attack (most likely). I'm just one of a very, very small number of Santorum fans here, I'm the most vocal and I've been here the longest so I'm usually the one responding to every ridiculous thing said about him. That might make it seem like I just attack whoever dislikes him but that's not the case
If there's one thing I got from this rant, it's that you
totally don't care what people think about Santorum. Totally.
