[Justice wanted]

Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum says the federal government has gone too far in trying to protect endangered species by putting “critters above people.”

At the Gulf Coast Energy Summit in Biloxi, Mississippi on Monday, the candidate was asked how he would balance the need for environmental protection with the desire for less regulation.

Hey Rick didn't that book-you know the bible- you are trying to force down peoples throats DID that book have a passage where God told the first man-he was responsible FOR EVERYTHING that God created?

1. In the King James version, man is given dominion, not stewardship, over animals.

Those with authoritarian bent are ALWAYS bedazzeled by the notion that GOD(!!!) has given them dominion over something.

Having addressed and vanquished (in his mind) the threat of unmarried fecund uteri, Santorum is moving on to imperial War with Nature!

As long as he keeps his pious hands off the purple bacteria, we have a chance to keep breathing! I don't really expect that he knows the purple bacteria or our dependence upon them and I don't want to call them to his attention, lest he figure out a way to franchise their work to the Koch bros.

2. Critters is southern for animals.

Santorum trying like Romney to be southern.

Critters?

5. Hell, he'd fit right in with the Southern Bible thumpin' crowd. His pandering is disgusting.

3. Hey InSanitorium, humans ARE critters

4. Kick any puppies lately, Rick?

I wish he'd been one of Michael Vick's dogs....
