In case any of my conservative friends feel as though Rick Santorum is a viable "limited government" option, please just watch this. In his own words, he is for government interference.

Thanks to "The Judge," Andrew Napolitano and his show "Freedom Watch" for this clip.
Whenever someone I know says they feel like they have to go with one of the candidates the media and republican primary has anointed as acceptable (ie, anyone but Ron Paul), I almost want to say "Just for God's sake, don't vote for Santorum." But then I catch myself, and remember, they're all this bad. Santorum is just tactless enough to admit it. So, to my Conservative friends: Please, please please don't vote for any of these Republican Sirens who will say anything to get your vote! Vote for someone who isn't going to mouth exactly what you believe and then do the opposite when he's in office, vote for someone who will actually be for smaller government, even if his foreign policy isn't your exact position. Unless you aren't actually for smaller government either, in which case do whatever you want. Of course, if you feel like you cannot vote for Paul, my suggestion is not to vote at all (at least in the primaries). It's your right. And at least you won't be bringing us another four years of tyranny at the hands of whatever party clone is chosen next.
