Last week, Rick Santorum admitted that he was getting “deeper and deeper in this process” of running for president in 2012 … and notes that he feels compelled to do so in order to save America for the Nazi-like aspects of heath care reform:
Santorum gravely predicts that “government-run health care…will result in more deaths than abortion every year.”
He points to the Dutch, who were among the first to legalize assisted suicide. In the Netherlands, Santorum says, patients are “looked at as a burden.” He notes that an estimated 10 percent of deaths there are from euthanasia. Senior citizens wear bracelets with the message: Please don’t euthanize me. They are afraid to go to the hospital because they worry they will not come out alive.
Meanwhile, in this country, Santorum says that, in so-called health care reform, “freedom itself is at stake.” In 2008, he says, “We elected a group of people who promised to take care of you…Everyone would get the health care they need.” The ironic result is that, through medical rationing, many may be denied life-saving medical treatment.
Santorum believes America needs to wake up—just as it had to do when the Nazis were committing atrocities 60 years ago. The people of that time, known since as the Greatest Generation, initially resisted calls to fight the good fight. But eventually, they answered their call, and freedom won.
