Waiting Arms (Catching the Falling Santorum)

Rick, we hardy knew ye when a campaign built on the pillar of blame and fear toppled you from on high into our laps. With a thud you fell into waiting arms at Iowa; but it is easy to miss the bullet points of your near miss.

Bullet one: the first test firings of the Super PACs produced spectacular results. Rick, you're so vain you think it's about you, but it's not. The Romney Super PACs easily imploded Newt. And this was only a test firing. The big guns await the President.

Bullet two: Rick, you are an understudy who dresses up a thin resume. Your SC volunteers fielded 1000s of calls about your stand on gun rights, after a single list-serve email questioned your commitment because you didn't return a form. We know you oppose intra-gender marriage.Your flawed logic recalls the novel in which the church banned laughter because it represented an outliers freedom. You ask why not marry 3 men, missing the point justice is equally for all. No presidential candidate should believe the nation has to conform to their personal views. You do. That's a depressive form of megalomania, its delusions seeing conspiracies in differences.

Bullet three: you embrace a system that extracts wealth without a fair return, whether directly to workers or as a provision of collective needs. Rick, possession is no more an entitlement than being poor, but need before greed. Why do you put greed first, against the word and people you profess to serve?
