WASHINGTON — Newt Gingrich disagrees with Rick Santorum's harsh criticism of the famous speech on religion that John F. Kennedy delivered as he campaigned to become the nation's first Roman Catholic president.
Gingrich and Santorum, each a Catholic seeking the GOP nomination, view Kennedy's words differently. Santorum says he felt sick after reading Kennedy's 1960 speech and believes it advocated absolute separation of church and state.
Gingrich calls it a "remarkable speech." He told Fox News Channel on Tuesday that Kennedy was reassuring voters that he wouldn't obey any foreign religious leader. Gingrich said Kennedy was declaring "that his first duty as president would be to do the job of president, and I think that's correct."
Gingrich does share Santorum's position on President Barack Obama, however. Gingrich said Obama's administration is "anti-religious."

You know you're crazy when even Newt Gingrich calls you out

Anyways people were worried about electing a Roman Catholic as a President but Kennedy assured everyone his first priority is his job as President. Not obeying the Pope or any of that stuff
anyways great job Newt
keep taking those votes

Everything Santorum says is a load of shit, but he seems to be outdoing himself by getting worse and worse each passing day. It's pretty amusing.

Neither of those idiots deserve the nomination. If it comes down to it, I'll write in a name if I have to.

*sigh*
Sometimes you have to pick the best of the worst and hope we don't get screwed over or don't vote at all :/
Stupid political system. By the sounds of it, I hope Gingrich wins and Santorum loses.
The Moon mine idea does sound awesome though and John Stewart made it sound more awesome.

Ginggrich is terribly racist, unfortunately.
