Over the last few years, I've run across plenty of things that demonstrated how badly the Republican Party has lost its way. But nothing - and I do mean nothing - shows it as clearly as this clip:

Senator Rick Santorum, one of the most important Republican members in the United States Senate, believes that "the pursuit of happiness...harms America."

By his logic, the Decleration of Independence, the document that announced the birth of this nation to the world, harms America.

There are many different things you can call this belief, but "conservative" is most definitely not one of them.

For the record...

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
