Drudge Report had excerpts of a speech that Rick Santorum gave back in 2008.  It should be noted that Matt Drudge is a Romney lackey and since nobody else broke this “news” for him to link to he had to host it himself.

The excerpts…

“Satan has his sights on the United States of America!” Republican presidential hopeful Rick Santorum has declared.

“Satan is attacking the great institutions of America, using those great vices of pride, vanity, and sensuality as the root to attack all of the strong plants that has so deeply rooted in the American tradition.”

“This is a spiritual war. And the Father of Lies has his sights on what you would think the Father of Lies would have his sights on: a good, decent, powerful, influential country – the United States of America. If you were Satan, who would you attack in this day and age?”

“He attacks all of us and he attacks all of our institutions.”

Here’s the audio.

Drudge said Santorum made these “provocative” comments to students at Ava Marie University in Florida.

Yes they’re so provocative nobody knew about this speech until four years later?  While I wouldn’t entirely agree with his focus on the United States as Satan is at work in all nations and scripture is pretty clear that he exercises great influence on earth.  He does want to corrupt.  He has come to steal, kill and destroy, (John 10:10).

So how is Santorum really wrong?  Isn’t this just an attempt to marginalize him because of his faith?  Weren’t we told that was off limits for Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama?

I’m frankly sick of the attacks on this man’s faith.
