Monday, August 1. 2005Rick Throws down the gauntletToday's Washington Times reports on Rick's challenge to Senator Hillary Clinton to publicly debate whether it takes a family or a village to raise children. Sen. Rick Santorum yesterday challenged "radical" Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton to a serious debate on who is responsible for raising children--the family, the government or the children. ..."I'd love to have a serious debate," Mr. Santorum said. "I believe her view is one that says 'government' and 'top-down.' I believe my view is the view that's held by most Americans, which means we need strong families and strong communities, and we don't need government really disassembling those institutions, which I think her view of the world does." With all due respect to the Washington Times, if you watch the video of Rick's remarks you'll see that he didn't say "disassembling those institutions", he actually said "dissembling those institutions." We hate to see Rick misquoted. Here's the video:  Windows Media Quicktime That debate sounds like a great idea to us. But, we have one piece of advice for Rick based on the video clip of his challenge to Sen. Clinton. Before you debate Hillary you may want to open the dictionary and learn the difference between dissemble and disassemble. Here's a hint, one of them means to hide facts. |
