Someone needs to give this guy a history lesson. Nazi Germany was a Christian nation who prosecuted Jews, JWs, and atheists. What a nut.

Maybe someday the persecution will be so onerous that people who babble religion-based looniness will not be considered viable political candidates and their comments will not be widely reported in the media.

And yet, here you are preaching your crazy crap!

Have you been arrested for spewing lies?

Yeah, didn’t think so.

And Catholics. Basically, they persecuted anyone whom they deemed to be “non-Christian”, and that meant that some Catholics were caught up in their net (though not very many).

Why yes Sen. Blah People, if we allow you Christofascists to take over, that is indeed what would happen Good old Hitler himself proclaimed that Germany was a “Christian country”. You people really should read up on this stuff before you go shooting your stupid mouths off, because basically, you just proved what most of us have been saying about your Christian Taliban party, and how much you all resemble fascists.

The Republican party has nothing to offer the American people, so they resort to scaring their constituents with totally absurd claims of imminent persecution. The GOP goal is to turn Medicare over to private insurance companies and to turn Social Security over to Wall Street. If they accomplish these two things, GOP office holders will individually become multimillionaires as a result of payoffs from these industries. American is already an oligarchy and is about to become a dictatorship of the 1%.

And the Muslim communities in America are very worried about it.

It was a Christian country all right. During those wonderful pre Nazi days my relatives had only recently received any rights to speak of and were still discriminated against in jobs and housing. Just one example: an eminent paleontologist who couldn’t get a job teaching at a university because universities wouldn’t hire Jews. Of course Santorum would like to go back to those days, except the groups he’d like to discriminate against are more extensive. Santorum is dumber than dirt and he needs to compete in a world where anyone smarter than him is excluded.

Let’s be honest. The catholics who were discriminated against were those who opposed the nazis. Ditto for protestants who opposed the nazis.

The religious right needs to learn that preventing them from imposing their values on the rest of the planet is not the same as persecuting them.

But if you worship a martyr you tend to have a persecution complex.

Is this about Alabama updating their state constitution to ban implementation of Sharia Law? Or maybe whether gays can cannot marry? Or how women can make decisions about their bodies? Or anything else for that matter?

“…The government wants to tell you how to live your life…”

Actually, Santorum wants to tell you how to live your life instead.

We’re already approaching Nazi levels. I lived through it, so I remember the Nazi persecution. I was a baker in a small town near Berlin. The Hitler Youth were going to have a party. I made the mistake of telling them I would not bake a cake for their Fuhrer. They alerted the press. All around the Fatherland, people heard of my refusal. They said to themselves, this baker does not like my Fuhrer, I will not eat his cakes. And they didn’t. It was horrible. This, today, is known as “the Holocaust.” I’d hoped young Americans would have learned.
