He Has One Thing: Rick Santorum's Family Is Cute-Ish
 |
No, I'm not going to make fun of the little girl crying, hold your angry emails. What I would like to point out is:
- Although Rick Santorum homeschools his kids, he still dresses them like they're in Catholic school. Nice.
- Rick Santorum's daughter dresses her doll in the same outfit as her. No word on whether her doll attends Catholic school or not.
- Santorum has also apparently adopted Baby Fat Elijah Wood, who is trying to stare away the election results.
- Rick and his wife make a cute couple.
Man, don't you just want to sit behind Rick and his family at church? It'd be so aww-worthy. As a senator from Pennsylvania, not so much.

Haha, looks like Ruby is crying, too. Here's a tissue.

DMac, you've lost your mind. Santorum's family looks 35 kinds of stiff and sheltered. Not cute at all. And his sons look less Elijah Wood and more Fundy Harry Potter.

They scared the hell out of me when I watched that speech. Those kids seems very, very odd.

While I don't like Santorum's politics and am glad of the republican's smashing defeat, I *do* approve of home schooling. Regardless of the kind of outlook you're trying to build in your child, you're better able to do it at home than sending them off to battle it out with other kids who are just as clueless, and probably more so, than yours.
At least that child knows the consequences to her family of that political defeat. Involvement is good.

Hmm....that wouldn't be an American Girl doll young Santorum is holding? Isn't that the same doll company that right-wing nutnuts like The Ricker were trying to drive out of business because they support programs for girls that have ties to the pro-choice movement?

Citizen Mom, I thought the same thing. That's definitely a Kit doll.

Note to self: More posts with photos of Rick Santorum and his family.

Also: A company that makes infant dolls gives money to the pro-choice movement? Is the theory that instead of having real babies, people will buy dolls? 'Cuz that'd be awesome.

Clare,
I'm thinking it's Molly, given the tartan on display here. http://tinyurl.com/ybjmyq

Wait, Clare, you're right, that is Kit. I didn't see the blonde hair. Well, at any event, I think it's time young Miss Santorum traded up to a Bratz doll and a Juicy Coture tracksuit.

I would think homeschooling encourages not having friends and monolithic thinking, something Santorum has down to a science (HA, science). Exposure to other viewpoints is healthy. If you need isolation to maintain your viewpoints they might not be worth keeping.

Well, I'll fornicate with Rick (hehhehe Rick... rhymes with....)
Hey if a steroid-injecting muscle guy on meth can get it on with a preacher with 5 kids...
I know I've got a shot!
Didn't I see Rick Santorum at the Bike Stop one night? :D

Does anyone else think she'll make that same face in the future every time she has sex?

Regarding D-Mac comments of Rick Santorum and family. Enjoy because you and your sick ilk will certainly shoot youselves in the foot, and it won't even take two years. The Neo-Copperheads and/or the Henry Wallace party will without a doubt self destruct.
