My GOD do I hate, loathe, despise, and detest this man (Santorum). Anyone in PA or anyone who knows anyone in PA, PLEASE urge them to vote against this pit of bile that has taken a human form.

I just don't understand Republicans' economic view in general. I mean, $100 per family for gasoline. That's what, on average TWO fill ups? So we are set to go for two weeks, then back to paying out of pocket. And let's allow the oil companies to rake in ridiculous profits...we'll just kill the wildlife to get more oil. It makes me want to smack my head off the desk (which I honestly DID when I read this). I cannot believe that there are people who believe this is the best way to solve this problem. I just can't believe it.
