I was thinking about Santorum...

No, the other one, and saying to myself that I really blew it in life.

When I was active in organizations I spoke my mind and told the unedited unvarnished truth. For that I often got in trouble. It never occurred to me to say “I misspoke” or “I’m sorry if what I said offended anyone” because I DID NOT MISSPEAK and I WAS NOT SORRY.

Just to say that I missed my opportunity to be a hypocrite in extremis.

And somehow, it seems that the RepubliQan Party has cornered the market on them.....
