This doesn't really mean much.

People who would watch this either weren't going to vote for him anyway, would explain it away as "You can't really tell what he was going to say" or are Blew_Arrow.

Sure sounds like that was what he was about to say, and he recovered by going on a completely bizarre different tangent with that sentence, so I don't know what else he could have possibly been about to say.

Not surprising though, fervent religious extremists are some of the most intolerant people in the world.

When Santorum spoke in Detroit 2 months ago he called Obama a big government neophyte, and he has used religious jargon in the past as well.
That may or may not be what he was going to say.
Even so however, it doesn't make him any less of a douche.

And he didn't. He stopped himself, stumbled, and tried to recover. It doesn't matter. Santorum has as much of a chance of being the Republican candidate as Monica Lewinsky does for being the spokesperson for dry cleaning.

He's done this kind of thing before. Couple months ago, while talking about food stamps and such, in general, he said...


"talking about government aid such as food stamps and welfare at the rally at a diner: "I don't want to make black people's lives better by giving them somebody else's money. I want to give them the opportunity to go out and earn the money and provide for themselves and their families.""


As though only black folks were getting this kind of aid.

what a stupid complaint. it is a fact that a major point of contention between the libs and conservatives is how to deal with historic institutionalized racism, Pretending he can't speak to that the way he did without being racist is idiotic.

He wasn't talking about racism. He was talking about food stamps and other government safety net programs. Programs that are used by people of all races. But, he singled out blacks as the recipients of those safety net programs. How many black folks are there in Iowa? 14? 15?

When people talk about programs and laws meant to counter some of the bad things that have happened and are still happening to blacks because of their race they aren't just talking about the blacks in iowa. Do you really not understand why this is pertinent and who made it pertinent?

Usually that Santorum quote that Groucho used to showcase...well, something...is cut down to just "I don't want to help black people by giving them other people's money", so I'll at least give him credit for keeping it in context.

Besides you and Santorum, I really havent heard anyone describe food stamps as a program for black people designed to counteract the legacy of slavery and racism.

You don't think anyone has ever argued that less gov't funding of programs like food stamps is racist because it disproportionately targets blacks? That's the hill you want to die on?

I hope you guys are just liars and not this stupid. I hate to imagine that you are the best hope liberals have at effecting the right kind of change.

He wasn't talking about programs and laws meant to counter some of the bad things that have happened to blacks. He was talking about basic safety net programs that apply to every race. Why didn't he just say that he wanted to help all Americans? No, instead, he told a group of white folks that he was against using their money to provide food stamps to black folks.

Well, being that the majority who use food stamps are white might be a snag in that theory. http://food-stamps.me/types.html But don't let facts get in your way. . . .

And don't forget he said it in a state with a predominately white population. I think, 97% of the people in that state on WIC are white. I think it was Iowa, but not 100% sure.

Edit: Yes, Iowa. And that state has a 2.9% black population according to the Census.

Here's a link to a page that has the video...

http://www.pennlive.com/midstate/index.ssf/2012/01/rick_santorum_says_hes_against.html

He was talking about the growth of government programs like Medicaid and how that made everyone dependent on the government. Typical right wing talking point. But, then, he veers off and says he doesn't want the government taking your money to give it to black folks.

The porblem I have with your argument groucho is that if he would have said, "We need to cut all programs that hand money to the poor because I hate it when poor people steal a dollar from rich people because they are sorry punks who should be at least out trying to get a job instead of laying around at home and playing PS3. And this has nothing to do with race"

I know FOR SURE thet he would be called to task on opportunity grounds and one of the complaints he would have received would have been that cutting those programs disproportionately hurts blacks who are already a heavily disenfranchised and hamstrung group political power wise.

So you can pretend it's not about race but liberals ABSOLUTELY would raise the racial inequality of the effects as an issue if someone said cutting it wasn't about race.

Enjoy your soapbox though. I don't buy the "colorblind" argument from either side.

So, your argument is that liberals would just claim that ANY call for cutting the safety net would be racist, so, Santorum might as well just be upfront about it?

no. my argument is that the disproportionate racial impact is legitimate to bring up by both sides. And it is republicans who would be more likely to try and ignore it and dems who would be more likely to bring it up and hold republican's feet ot the fire over it. So it seemed like a stupid argument to make against anyone yes, but specifically it seemed like a stupid argument to make against a republican speaking of gov't welfare programs in terms of racial impact.

So I DO think ti is legitimate to bring up on any welfare issue that disproportionately effects minorities, but I specifically thought your argument was specious because it is the ultimate having it both way perception.

I am a very poor communicator on here, because I think of all of these threads as a part of a larger meta conversation. So a lot of times I state a conclusion that I believe is backed up by the last ten discussions we've had about it, and then am called to task. it is only then that I attempt to fill in the holes in what I have appeared to say, versus what i have tried to say.

If I was a batter communicator then I don't think I'd look wrong as much at first. But you can't have everything and I got the looks and the luck. So I'll just roll with looking dumb at first.

If the thrust of Santorum's speech was how the safety net is hurting blacks more than helping them and that he favors doing...this, this, and this, instead, you would have a point. But, that is not what his speech was about. He was talking about the federal mandate to increase Medicaid enrollment and how it was just making more people dependent on government, but then, realizing half his audience was probably in favor of more Medicaid, switched to talking about food stamps for black people. Why just black people? If his argument was correct, doesn't the safety net discourage ALL people?

You fools. Santorum isn't rabidly religious. He's a snake-oil salesman that uses people's faith to get votes. (much like the Republican party)

While in government he was wildly corrupt.

Are these the actions of a moral man?

I'm not saying I think Santorum is racist. I think it's more that Republicans campaign on demonizing groups of people so often, it becomes second nature, and, occasionally, instead of using the subtle, abstract words that they've been trained to use, the actual bare-bones talking point slips out.

a disproportionate number of black people are on welfare, even when more whites are collecting it.

for the record, black people are the 2nd most succesful race in america.. the most succesful are whites.. number 2 are blacks.

black people are only 10% or so of the population but there is a black president, black atheletes, mayors, offucers, professors, musicians, etc.. more black people are in positions of power than any other minority.

if you consider the statement that he started with...

may indicate that...
"negator" could be a candidate because that might not even be a word.
