Rick Santorum, at a campaign stop in Mobile, Alabama, hit Obama for not standing up for the U.S. troops involved in a Qur’an burning incident in Afghanistan. Santorum said, according to NBC News:
“American military does something that may offend the sensibilities of people whose sensibilities are easily offended and yet doesn’t stand up for our men and women in uniform as they are fragged, as they are attacked by mobs in Afghanistan,” Santorum said. “Ladies and gentlemen, we need a new commander in chief in America.”
