Feel Good Rick.
Rick Santorum has come up with a good way to feel good about being bad.
Former U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum says the deportation of millions of undocumented immigrants would be a “blessing” to impoverished Latin American countries that would benefit from skills they have learned in the United States.
You wanna know the only good thing about that? The word “former.”
He said many undocumented immigrants are from poor countries like Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, all of which he described as a “mess,” and would benefit from a large influx of people with American work skills and a knowledge of democracy.
Yeah, and they love America for kicking them out. So, you know, there’s that, too.
My friend Evelyn Burleson says that conservative is just a political excuse for being greedy. Now Christianity is just an excuse to treat people like trash.
Lead the way Santorum! Next stop Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador. Although I wouldn’t go so far as to say those countries would benefit from his skills, the United States sure would by his leaving.
1“Former” does sound good. “Never again, ever” sounds better.
2Sure, say what you want about this former man. But the new Rick has got some color going on now, eh? Hotter than a pistol
3with his new fashion sense. Put him back on the main stage!

What Dan Savage says, Santorum.
4Every time I read about a legislator who claims the Bible drives their decisions, the decisions are always about denying some right and hurting people or trying to legislate a narrow view of morality.
5Job skills they “learned” here? Like what? Picking crops? Cleaning rooms? Paving streets? Doing back-breaking jobs for low pay? Ricky? They did that before they came here you dolt! They came here for the for a better life for themselves and their families. Oh, just STFU and go away you human sh*t stain.
6(Sorry, Mama.)
Skills are a lovely thing for workers to have.
Jobs are also nice. Santorum does not appear to have addressed that part of the equation.
Perhaps Savage should have defined “Santorum” as the “frothy mixture of snake oil and bulls**t” that is Santorum’s brain.
His heart is pure lard.
7Inquiring minds want to know.
Do we just yank them out of their homes, schools, jobs, families and resettle them in their country of origin? With all their belongings?
Or do we just dump them over the border with the clothes on their backs?
What about all those employers with no workers, will the government have to step in and help those businesses?
Because if it’s the latter, we will have created home grown terrorists of the worst kind, those with a legitimate grievance against the USA.
8You think he’s ever been to one of those countries?
9I’m pretty sure they already know how to pick cotton down there.
10The only way this delusional fake Christian would visit Central America is a private jet to a gated white community. He’s just trying to win the stony hearts and empty minds of the jackals pawing at the gate to prosperity.
11Can’t top the assessment of Linda Phipps…it is spot on!
12Is there a bigger self-righteous rightwing idiot in America than Rick Santorum? I doubt it.
13Monty, consider the four RATS of SCROTUS, Roberts, Alito, Thomas and Scalia. Then there are the Tea Baggers in Congress who are attempting to rebrand as the Freedom Caucus. Oh, and that Pepe Le Puke guy in Maine. “self-righteous rightwing idiot in America” covers a lot of turf from the national to local level in all 50 states. Apparently Frothy Santorum is deadlier than Ebola for its effect on on wingnut cranium tissue. That would explain Mental Ben and so many others.
14Very few people can so eloquently excoriate idiots like PKM, though there are many top contenders here in TWMDBS.
Brava and bravo to you all!
15Unfortunately, these newly gained “skills” will be met with the cartels’ machine guns and machetes. These were the things the refugees were fleeing to avoid. Ricky can’t be bothered with details like that.
16(It looks like his daughter loves “My Little Pony” and dresses Daddy that way.)
They keep trotting these losers out and letting them talk and then wonder why people won’t vote for them???
17@WA Skeptic
You’re right. The snacilbupeR 2016 run for the roses IS starting to look less like a horse race and more like a horse auction. Last out of the gate first to the slaughterhouse.
18So out of solicitude for the struggling economies on our southern borders you intend to keep the criminals and misfits here and send the law abiding and employable back?
19Micr, those aren’t horses even though they have hooves and tails and are equine in appearance.
20LynnN: They don’t even look like the whole horse…just the rear half.
21What can you expect from this specimen? Years ago when he was in the Senate and went off the rails on certain issues, including immigration, his Rep colleague from the state of PA avoided him like the plague! In-San-ityorum was just that!
