Questions:
1. Is it acceptable for non-fake presidential candidate to publically lie about the entire foreign nation?
2. If lying is still bad, which means that Santorum is a politically-dead clown, do Dutch overreact?
3. If Santorum is just fine for Americans, does it mean that Americans at large are sick?
