Pro-Santorum Super PAC knocks Romney in new TV ad

 

The pro-Santorum Super PAC Red, White, and Blue Fund today released a new TV ad in Michigan jabbing Mitt Romney and positioning Rick Santorum as the consistent conservative alternative to President Obama.

The 30-second ad, entitled “Vital Decisions,” begins with a cutout of Romney next to an image of Obama. “How can Mitt Romney beat Barack Obama when on the vital decisions they’re not much different?” the narrator says.

The narrator then lists Romney and Obama’s similarities:  “Like Obama, Romney drastically increased spending. Increased state taxes and fees. Even worse, RomneyCare is the blueprint for ObamaCare.”

And over an image of a smiling Rick Santorum, the narrators says, “Who can win?”

The answer: “Rick Santorum.”

“The principled leader who’s fought against big government,” the narrator adds. “With a bold plan to create jobs and cut wasteful spending.”

No matter - we got us President Deficit's budget that increases spending by just $1.3 Trillion this year.

Wait a second, did he say he be cutting the deficit in half by now?

But, Spanky, Romney says cutting spending during a recession prolongs the downturn.

So now you listen to Romney, eh?

Let's see they won;t cut in a recession, they won't cut in an upturn, so what do we get? Oh yeah $15 Trillion in debt.

Oh and unemployment back to 9%.

Hope and Change, right Amy?

Spanky,

I assume that you are talking about the current budget for FY2012.

Budgets are not laws they are resolutions. But the Budget Control of 2011 Act passed last Aug covers FY2012 and it is law.

Budgets do not control spending, Congress does. The Republican controlled House, just last Dec, passed spending bills that exceed revenues by $1.3 trillion.

Santorum (and the present day GOP, for that matter) has got a "bold plan" all right: To send us right back into the 18th Century.

A reviewer of Santorum's book called him "one of the greatest minds of the 13th century"........

A more apropos comparison would be to the dark ages .. that period of time where the rise of the Catholic Church resulted in the burning of books, destruction of scientific knowledge, and execution of enlightened people. Rather mirrors the goals of the Republican in Your Vagina party of today.

"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."

Job - this is a great site showcasing some of the great wisdom espoused by the Grand Inquisitor that is Santorum. The man is a psychopath.
