The thing is Santorum has basically said, that people who remain in the path of an on coming hurricane when advised or even ordered to leave should be punished… this ignores the fact that most of those left in New Orleans and outlying areas, where too poor to move or thanks to the in competency of Nagin had no way of getting out…
IMHO it’s a damn insensitive and stupid thing to say, and to be fair Santorum is having a great deal of trouble at the moment not putting his foot in it, he’s not responded well to the airing of some of the kookier quotes from is latest book, he’s failed totally to challenge the impression of him as a “rubber stamp” and “yes man” for the administration despite his best attempts and now he has a gaffe over the Hurricane… its not the quote in of its self that’s the problem its rather the fact that he seems to not be able to put a foot right at the moment and it’ll cost him if he continues.
