Seriously? Yeah, seriously.
V, you do know you told half the story and stopped there.

From ABC News:

But the yell - the identity of the yeller is not clear, although the words were clearly audible - was in close proximity to journalists traveling with the candidate.

"It's absurd," Santorum said of the woman's outburst when reporters told him about it. "No we're not pretending it's anybody but shooting pistols. It's a very terrible and horrible remark and I'm glad I didn't hear it."

I'd argue against that. What we can be sure of is the woman is not a likely Obama voter. This does suggest a becoming disdain for bread-and-circuses and statism, which means maturity and a measure of intelligence.

Describe for me exactly how Obama is more "bread-and-circus-y" and "statist" than any of the competition in mainstream politics, and exactly which policies of his are major policy failures, please. What has Obama done that has been worse for America than what John McCain and Sarah Palin would have done.
