On Monday, Leslie Stahl asked Rick Santorum what we could have done differently in Iraq to make the situation better.  Stahl proposed that one option would have been to send in more troops. Rick responded that at the beginning of the invasion of Iraq, just as many "field commanders" wanted fewer troops as wanted more troops.

Rick, of course, wouldn't name any of those commanders. But as you can see from the opening paragraph of this Washington Monthly article, Generals Eric Shinseki and Tommy Franks wanted more troops, while Donald Rumsfeld and Paul Wolfowitz believed fewer troops should be used. Does Santorum consider Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz field commanders?

At the end of the clip Rick says he's "been in many briefings where that's been said," we think he may be getting K Street Project meetings confused with military briefings. Watch the clip:

Rick Santorum threw yet another tantrum this weekend and this one was captured on video.

In the following clip Rick gets agitated by a Pennsylvania teacher who tells him she's unhappy that her tax money was used to cyber school his children in Virginia. Rick tells her he pays taxes in Pennsylvania, not Virginia. Does that mean he doesn't pay property taxes on his, uh, second home? During that exchange a passerby yells that he hates Rick's commercials, which prompts an apology from Rick.

After the exchange Rick goes on a tirade about one of his favorite targets - the media. It seems he's upset that they would cover his heated exchange with a constituent. It looks like someone needs a timeout. Watch the video:

The latest Quinnipiac poll showed that Pennsylvanians overwhelmingly disapprove of George W. Bush's job performance and the way his administration has handled Iraq. Rick Santorum, on the other hand, believes that Bush is "a terrific President" and Donald Rumsfeld has done "a fine job" as Defense Secretary. Our new web ad lays it all out in detail.
