<\/a>From Eric Dondero:<\/p>

Speaking at a Lincoln\/Reagan Day dinner in New Hampshire, during Q&A former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum let loose three zingers with particular libertarian zeal. <\/p>

From Politico<\/a>: <\/p>

On Radical Islam<\/strong><\/p>

“Jihadism is evil and we need to say what it is...” <\/p>

“We need to define it and say what it is. And it is evil. Sharia law is incompatible with American jurisprudence and our Constitution.”<\/p><\/blockquote>

On the Welfare State<\/strong><\/p>

\"Close your eyes, like you’re listening to a drug dealer outside a schoolyard,” he said. “They see entitlements as a way to make you dependent, weaker, less of a person than you are, drugging you into submission to a government who promises a high to take care of you.”<\/p><\/blockquote>

On Compulsory Education<\/strong><\/p>

“Just call them what they are. Public schools? That’s a nice way of putting it. These are government run schools,” <\/p>

“They fund it more,” he said of Democrats. “Why? Because it brings more children into their domain. It brings more children out of the household … Their agenda is to socialize your children with the thinking they want in those children’s minds.”<\/p><\/blockquote>

Santorum has a presidential exploratory committee, and has been campaigning in both Iowa and New Hampshire.<\/p>
