Signifying by Divine Providence That I, Santorum, Was to Carry Excalibur

Here's the question:

Did Rick Santorum at one time have a grip on reality, and has lost his grounding in the actual world in the moral vacuum of wealth and power that is Washington D.C.? Or has he always been a clueless phony weirdo with no sense of decorum or tact? Because, as lame as he's always been, he's just getting bizarre now that Campaign 2006 is really underway.

Take, for example, this excellent video provided by excellent Santorum resource Santorum Exposed. In it, you will see Rick mislead people about the troops serving in Iraq (whom he claims all intentionally stepped up to fight the war on terror, rather than being pressed into service after having enlisted during peacetime and then having their tours extended). You will see Rick actually state in clear terms that America is "a country guided by divine providence." And you will see Rick equating putting a Rick Santorum bumper sticker on your car with serving your country in the United States military.

"And yet we have brave men and women who are willing to step forward because they know what's at stake. They're willing to sacrifice their lives for this great country. What I'm asking all of you tonight is not to put on a uniform. Put on a bumper sticker. Is it that much to ask? Is it that much to ask to step up and serve your country?"

Wow...Truly, Rick, you are the Worst Person Alive.
