The AP reported yesterday that Santorum will be getting Secret Service protection. Doesn’t he think Jesus will protect him if he wants him to be president?
“MILNER, Ga. — Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum is expected to get Secret Service protection Tuesday, according to an administration official with knowledge of the plan.”
Gingrich has also given up on the protection of his lord and savior and requested human protection.
“The campaign of former House Speaker Newt Gingrich requested Secret Service protection last week and is awaiting word on whether he will receive the security, a person close to the campaign said Sunday.”

Pffft, nobody can be protected against the Kracken! (Figure if you’re gonna have a make-believe diety fight for you, might as well make it a good one – now, where the hell is that Perseus Kid??)

Well, if Jesus isn’t going to protect the Pope (since he goes around in the bullet-proof Popemobile), why would he look to protect someone lower in the food chain?

Wait, I thought Jesus wanted Herman Cain to be president? Or was it Rick Perry? Maybe it was Michele Bachmann.
Damn, that Jesus is one fickle dude.

Is professional protection allowed by the bible…Jesus didn’t have that…I mean shouldn’t Rick believe that if it is his time, then surely nothing the Secret Service can do could thwart the will of god! Rubbish. Also, I thought Rick was against protection or does that just hold true for condoms?

It’s to protect him from Christians, obviously. I mean, a majority of murderers in prison are Christian, so that’s clearly where the treat would be from.

Maybe he believes those Secret Service agents are angels?

Because Rick Santorum IS Jesus.
Think about it…have you ever seen the two of them together?

Well, color me surprised! Not even The Pope depends on god to protect him. So why should we expect these clowns to.

If mittens were sufficiently concerned
about not adding to the National Debt, he would use his business
acumen to provide Mormon Sacred UNDERWEAR for all GOP
Presidential wanna bees & save on other wise adding to it via the cost of providing Secret service protection.

Reminds me of the Pope-mobile and its 3 inch thick bullet proof glass.
