Santorum Mailbag

The emails just keep coming, so I'm just going to keep posting them.

When I visited your main page today, there was a big banner ad that said. Vote Rick Stanorum for 2011.
How does an ad like this get on your site.

Also, I noticed that your site is no longer number one in google searches. Did he buy his way to the top?

Google's search algorithm has evolved since this site started. As Google learns more about each of us as individuals, it actually has the (creepy?) power to give us individualized search results. For example, when I Google Santorum, our site comes up first. Others will see it as low as number five. As long as we're among the top results, however, I'm not too worried about it.

As for the ad thing, that's hilarious! I saw a Rick Perry ad on here the other day, and was amused, but that's way better. I think it's safe to assume that the readers of Spreading Santorum aren't likely to vote for old Rick.

Hi there,

Just some articles about your blog on the biggest news sites in Belgium, The Netherlands & France. Thought you might like it.

Keep up the good work! ;)

This writer sent in a lot of links, most of which aren't actually in English. I thought I'd share this one from Belgium with you, though, because according to Wim, it literally translates to "Santorum is Unpleasant By-Product of Sex."


For real.

Tore down as many of the fcuker's posters I could find,

a 'decorated' / littered my roof top deck with them.

Thanks for speaking for us, Dan.

That. Is. Awesome.

On the third of January, after the caucus results came in, in utter
disgust and shock, I shouted "FUCK SANTORUM" aloud in dismay at Iowa
voters. Now, what happens next is 100% true and I am not embellishing
in the slightest:

Immediately after my outburst, my dog, who was sitting a few feet away
from me, begins to loudly projectile diarrhea all over my bedroom. It
was vile, disgusting, and frothy to the max.

Which leads me to suspect: simply saying his name summons him, like a
demon or evil spirit.

Additionally, I think Iowegians finally made a butter sculpture of
Santorum. They put a stick of butter in a microwave for a minute.

I'm really glad that happened, but also glad it did not happen to my dog.

YOU FOLKS R ASSHOLES....YOU R FECAL MATTER...RICK SANTORUM FOR PRESIDENT.....EAT SHIT

Christmas!

Hi Dan, my name is Matt [redacted], I graduated from Carmel Catholic High School in Mundelein, IL in 2002. I have attended Catholic school my whole life, and was shocked and embarrassed to discover that Rick Santorum graduated from Carmel in 1976. Like the majority of Catholics, I find his views repugnant, and started a facebook group "Carmel Catholic Alumni Against Rick Santorum." I started by inviting a few of my friends, and now Alumni from the 60's and 70's are joining. I know a lot of alumni read your column and website, would you be able to let them know about our group so we can make sure that everyone knows that Santorum does not speak for us? His association with the school has left a stain that may never wash out.

Hear that, Carmel Catholic High School alumni? Show your disdain for santorum by joining this facebook group!

Also, I'm still Jocelyn, not Dan.
