    It is funny how Mitt is portrayed as being willing to say anything to get elected. Yet, it is Rick Santorum who is just throwing out lie after lie. What is even worse, republicans just don't care about the facts.

    For example, Rick Santorum said that in the Netherlands, 10% of the population dies from euthanasia and that 50% of those deaths are against peoples wishes. He claims that elderly wear bracelets to the hospitals that say "do not euthanize".

    These are very specific facts and each of them is an outright lie.

    In an earlier debate, Santorum said that Obama was cutting verterens benefits while refusing to cut one penny from social welfare systems. Both are lies:

    I have always been told it is better to keep your mouth shut and look like and idiot, than open it an prove it. Rick Santorum obviously believes just say whatever, make up facts that support your point, and don't bother if they are true or not. To me, that is an idiot who has no clue what he is talking about.

    He is surely the biggest dip (*)(*)(*)(*) out of the four remaining GOP candidates.
