It's a big stretch from a politician who may have been either misinformed and/or made some stupid comments to the sort of slander you spewed forth.

Irrational people like you are what pushed me from being a moderate liberal to a moderate conservative. There's only so much asininity one can take.

You're going to question the motive? who's motive? the liberal biased media or the conservative biased media?
They both have clear motives for either mentioning the story or not mentioning it.
I also gave you the source of those news stories with the words coming from Santorum's very own mouth.

You would think an honest man would admit his error and apologise to the nation he just slandered.

Still waiting on that apology from "honest man" Santorum.

Malorn, he didnt just get his facts wrong. He accused an entire nation of murdering their elderly just to gain a few quick votes. That is downright evil, dishonest, slanderous and manipulative. Any honest, moral person would say "Hang on, that cant be right, double check that." But he leapt on it without a second glance.

Also the reason people dont like religous conservatives is not becuase they are different. They dislike them because religous conservatives want to impose religous law on the country.

No, he's just an idiot. That hasn't changed for sometime.

Santorum did say that same thing about Euthanesia back in 2009. It was wrong then, he was told then and he had three years to check his facts.

He did not.

Surprised?

Please Malorn, nothing like that will ever happen. Not unless you repeal murder laws because, guess what?, killing people without their permission is murder and not euthanasia.

You'd also think someone who has been bitten on the arse so many times about false facts and assertions would emphasise fact checking from his workers. Especially about outrageous claims such as the dutch killing off their elderly. But no, he continues to spew them out.

Meh.

Malorn drank the Kool-Aid. Don't bother trying to reason with him. You may as well head over to Conservapedia and tell Andy Schlafly why the entire world doesn't revolve around absolute left vs. right, liberal vs. conservative, "wrong" vs. "right" paradigms.

What bothers me is that I often end up defending social democrats just because people like Malorn calls them communists. Even if I would never even consider voting Labour, misrepresentation of fact is so typical. :/

Then, when you do so, you are labeled a "minion of communism who wants to oppress people's freedoms".

And when you do the opposite and debate with a communist or worse, an anarchist and defend differences in wealth and defend for instance moderate conservatives, you are labeled a "fat, capitalist pig who wants to oppress people's freedoms".

Fun, fun.

Santorum had his issues, but he would have been better than Romney.

No Malorn, you don't distinguish between types of socialism. You call them socialists so you can tar every other grade of socialism with the same brush.

You've been doing that non-stop. That's not cool.
