Polsters,
I am sure many of you watched the debate of the finest of the GOP. I thought they could get no lower when they cheered for putting people to death at the Reagan debate but they topped it this time.
Members of the crowd in FL booed an newly open out gay soldier who sent a video from Iraq. Followed by SANTORUM:
The man and women who sign up for the military are now going to be placed in very difficult and uncomfortable personal situations, very close quarter situations…We got to recruit people who would want to do this and now you’re going to put them in a very odd and uncomfortable environment. A lot of people, I believe are going to leave a lot of people aren’t going to join who otherwise would have joined, and that’s going to hurt our ratings, it’s going to hurt our ability to defend this country, and we shouldn’t be playing social experimentation….There is no role for playing sexual experimentation games in the United States military.
I hope you will join me in signing a petition to get Rick Santorum to issue an apology to Stephen Hill and all of our men and women who serve this country regardless of sexuality.

Let Santorum spout off. He’s going nowhere and it just reminds a lot of Indies why they left the Republican Party.
You can rely on this, and any other, online petition to result in absolutely nothing, other than letting Santorum (and any ‘pub he shares it with) know which voters NOT to contact. This means it’s not only pointless, but also means there are fewer opportunities for the Republicans to waste time on voters who will never cast their ballots for them.
Sorry – these things had power back when you could flood their inboxes with this stuff, but they know how to deal with them now. I think a good old fashioned letter writing campaign would be more effective, if you can sell people on it. Imagine all the mailbags being delivered to Santorum, a la Miracle on 34th Street.
