I think Santorum is Insane, but what the Dutch think of him is rather irrelevant, its sort of like the Chicago Tribune criticizing a German PM, it doesnt really matter to the voters of Germany.
..but his insanity is so over the top that he's getting attention from people that would not ordinarily be that interested in our primary elections. He's a laughing stock and an embarrasment.
Rick Santorum's School Scandal

Comments that Rick Santorum made about euthanasia in the Netherlands have caused a stir in the Dutch media, largely because the figures Santorum used appear to be either exaggerated or outdated and other allegations he makes about the practice are not backed by evidence.
Dutch news sources have picked up the story and reacted with outrage. “Rick Santorum Thinks He Knows the Netherlands: Murder of the Elderly on a Grand Scale,’’ read a headline in the daily newspaper NRC Handelsblad.
The Santorum campaign did not respond to a request for documentation of Santorum’s claims. But independent sources show the number of euthanasia cases appears to be much lower than Santorum suggested.
A Dutch politician wants his government to publicly rebuke Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum for claiming that forced euthanasia is legal in the Netherlands and that the elderly are being killed against their will.
The Dutch Embassy in Washington has declined to comment on Santorum’s recent remarks, The New York Times reported this week. An embassy spokeswoman said the Dutch government wanted to stay out of the American presidential campaign, the Times reported.
On Thursday, Dutch Member of Parliament Frans Timmermans, a leading member of the opposition left-leaning Labor Party in The Hague, blasted his government’s silence.
and of course you don't know what the h..l you are talking about.
I complain about ALL name calling, not just from one side.
Talk about an over the top emotive "wild rant" deflection. You neither addressed the "Pansy" or "drug capital" name calling by your fellow travellers, either before or since your imbecilic response.
Likewise the points of my post that have since been proven accurate by other posters with links to facts, but hey, you keep right on deflecting sunshine, no one is noticing

First, Mother Jones is just another left publication.
Second, are you agreeing with chi that he has stolen something?
If you are , why haven't charges been levied against him?
People come on here all the time making outrageous statements and they turn out to be nothing but hot air.
Dear me, I seem to have caused some consternation in bringing facts to the debate.
No facts just B.S You aren't worthy of any more replies
