Jan 15 - Rick Santorum On FOX News Sunday: We Need To Increase Birth Rates

Rick Santorum appeared on FOX News Sunday, where he talked about his plan to triple the tax credit for children (from today's $1000 per child deduction.)

The former Pennsylvania senator talked about the "demographic winter" that is happening in Europe because of tax codes that are worse than ours in terms of promoting large families.

"Children are the greatest resource we have," he said. "They're the natural resource that creates wealth in this country."

Santorum defended himself against charges of social engineering and called criticism of his tax plan "outrageous."

"This is not social engineering," he said. "What's social engineering is the policies of the last 30 years that have robbed the family of the support that they used to have in the tax code."

On Saturday at a campaign stop in Charleston, Santorum also talked about his own children and how they have shaped his anti-abortion views. He told the crowd that his disabled daughter Bella, 3, made him realize that God looks upon him as "disabled."

"The gift that Bella gave me was the gift of looking at this disabled child who in the world's view will never be able to do anything for me other than love me," he said, according to MSNBC. "She is just a font of love as far as I' m concerned. And she made me understand that that's how the Father looks at me, disabled. Unable to do anything for him except love him. And he loves me unconditionally."

If he wins im leaving the country

He was in 5th place in New Hampshire and I am pretty certain Romney is going to run away with it. I don't think any of the Republicans will defeat Obama though [pic] None of the candidates seem strong enough

does this guy know about anything??? the global population right now is unsustainable as it is.

George Carlin said it best these rich mf's could give 2 !!s about you. This only slick political talk. After 9 months inside mommy, and then 18 years later you will become attractive because they need you for soldiers, and then after that your basically useless.

children = buyers market for government, pharmaceutical companies, education, and corporations.


RIP to George Carlin he was one of the good ones! You will never have a professor in college like him.

How is he a Conservative. again?
