While I don't believe there will be an actually perfect Catholic ruler till Christ returns in glory, and had some reservations about him at first, I've decided I'm fine with Santorum.
He also wouldn't hesitate to go to war with Iran for Israel's sake.
Maybe that's why he wrote, in an op-ed,
Some say that this means we have to launch a military attack against Iran. I don't believe that. I think most Iranian people want to be free of their evil regime, and millions of them have taken to the streets, in the face of security forces all too happy to kill them, to show their contempt for their leaders. It's a revolutionary force, and we should support it.
We defeated the Soviet Union without using military means. We supported the Soviet dissidents and refuseniks, and the Soviet regime collapsed. I believe we can do the same thing in Iran.
This from the man who authored the Iran freedom and support Act when it was first unanimously opposed then soon after unanimously passed. He knows what he's talking about on national security and foreign policy and he has 8 years of experience on the armed services committee. Maybe a strong president may have prevented the situation from degenerating into what it has already. It may not even matter, because Iran is probably going to be attacked before November.
