Internet Goes Nuts Over Santorum‘s Alleged ’N-Word’ Slip — But Did He Really?

Anti-Rick Santorum bloggers are going a bit crazy this morning. A clip from the candidate’s Janesville, Wisconsin, speech from Tuesday night is starting to go viral. What’s driving the activity? One clip from a speech where some suggest he catches himself from saying the n-word.
The candidate spoke to a friendly crowd at the Janesville Armory. During his speech, Santorum told cheering supporters, “This race is about who we are.”
And then he said something that has the web whirring:
Did Santorum actually say something so out of character and patently offensive? A slew of websites (especially those that are anti-Santorum) seem to think so.
The Left-leaning blogosphere is jumping on it, along with the Twitterverse:
We’ve listened to it several times, and we’re skeptical. Why? Take a look at the sentence:
“We know– we know the candidate Barack Obama what he was like: anti-war government ni–[uninteligible] the, uh, America was a source for division around the world.”
Would the n-word make sense there?* In addition, to get the proper context of that moment, we watched all of the speech. And you should too. Santorum’s portion begins at the 22:00 mark. At about 34 minutes into the tape, you will hear the comment in question, which comes as he‘s talking about Obama’s stance on defense.
We asked if Santorum campaign if there was a text copy of the speech that Santorum gave to the Janesville audience and were told that the speech was not scripted and that the candidate’s remarks were “off the cuff.”
Santorum Campaign senior strategist John Brabender spoke with The Blaze this morning and denied it was anything:
“We are not going to dignify any question on this matter. It is such an absurdity for anyone to try and bring race into this campaign. Anyone who does, should be ashamed of themselves.”
This isn’t the first time Santorum has faced questions about catching himself during a speech. In January, many accused him using the term “black” in a blanket manner in a speech about welfare recipients. Back then, he said “I was starting to say one word and I sort of came up with a different word and then moved on.”

*As one commenter points out, there are several words that start with a “neg-” sound:
Words starting with neg
Words Found
negate negated negation negative negatively
negativism negativistic negativity neglect neglected
neglectful neglectfully neglectfulness negligee negligence
negligent negligently negligible negligibly negotiable
negotiate negotiating negotiation negotiations negotiator
There’s no saying that any of these words would make sense in the context of the sentence, but as we asked earlier, does the n-word?

Posted on March 30, 2012 at 11:27amClassic, the modern liberal progressive NeoCommunist Statist left is ideologically controlling the narrative. They are without morals and fundamentally based on a discourse strategy of deceit and manipulation, true “conservatives” must take back the narrative based on reason and logic, otherwise you will constantly be stepping in the Dogma left behind by these morally and intellectually bankrupt utopian nihilists..
You can’t use logic and reason with these people, they will just move on to another lie.

Posted on March 30, 2012 at 11:23amThe media is being all judgmental. Public speech is not easy. Just be fair and kind. This is politics, not anything meaningful!
Here is how it should work:
You cannot claim he meant to say something unless he actually finishes the word.
And then you need to let him explain what he would have said if he could replay the moment.
And then you need to provide him the opportunity to apologize.

Run away!” thing I don’t care any more either. People offend me all the time, but you know what? They’re allowed to. It’s just part of living in a FREE society. I don’t go forming political parties or starting protests or boycotts to get people to stop offending me. If people aren’t deliberately rude and actually trying to be offensive, why have we become so unforgiving? For all its talk of tolerance, Political Correctness is about the most intolerant thing we have going in the USA.
Yeah, and I also doubt that Santorum was going to say that. It doesn’t fit the context. And besides, he stumbles over his words fairly regularly, but that’s okay. It doesn’t make him a bad candidate. People shouldn’t go reading the absolute worst into every little thing just to score political points. How did we get to this point where we hate each other so much that we make such ridiculous charges as “I know what you were going to say but didn’t”?

The REAL problem is that all radical Leftists see EVERYTHING through the kaleidoscope of RACE. They see white politicians automatically as RACISTS, even if they NEVER say anything bad about any other race in their entire life! Radical leftists are rabid wild animals in some respects, because once they latch onto something – they almost never let go. Trayvon’s death is a perfect example of that. They had to call Zimmerman a WHITE Hispanic, just so they could insert RACE into the equation.

You’re only telling a half truth. The Left lets things go only when it suits them to do so.
For example, if the GOP happened to run a former Grand Wizard of the KKK as a legitimate candidate for President and he did well, we’d be hearing about it for the next 50 years, but if you bring up fact that the GOP has never done that but the Dems have, in 1988- and the guy’s name was David Duke, your average Dem’s eyes glaze over and about fifteen seconds later he says “What were we talking about again?”

It goes back to a time eons ago when you were born, lived your whole life and died within a 10 square mile area. ANY stranger that happened along was suspicious, and treated with animosity. And the stranger may have been from nearby and thus, looked just like everybody else. Now imagine that the stranger was a different color, spoke a different language; heck, they may not have even been considered human. We still retain that conditioning. It isn’t going to go away because we pass some civil legislation or all attend a behavior modification class on three consecutive Saturdays. To deny that you might evaluate someone or some issue with a racial bias is to deny archeology as a science. BUT…to recognize that racism is there, to admit it, is to begin the LONG process of change.

(sometimes initial capital letter) the principles of a Russian revolutionary group, active in the latter half of the 19th century, holding that existing social and political institutions must be destroyed in order to clear the way for a new state of society and employing extreme measures, including terrorism and assassination.

Posted on March 30, 2012 at 11:01amI agree, it could be Nihilist. It could also be negative. I’m sure there are other possibilities. I don’t think Santorum would go to such an “intellectual” word. Not because he’s stupid, but because he doesn’t talk-down to people. There are a number of possibilities. Who are we to judge what was in his heart and mind when he spoke that syllable.
There’s nothing in his past that would ever even suggest he would use a racist tag to refer to the president. Of course this is exactly the assumption the race-baiting left will make. Their propaganda machine will churn on this for a while.

Posted on March 30, 2012 at 4:54pmI looked up “nihilist” on the Merriam-Webster web site and found this:
“the program of a 19th century Russian party advocating revolutionary reform and using terrorism and assassination.”
Hmmm… seems the 19th century Russian party has morphed into the 21st century American party! We haven’t seen the “assassination” part (yet!), but we’re sure as heck seeing the “terrorism” part!

Well, Mr Santoro sounds like he has a sore throat and is losing his voice. If you listen about 45 seconds earlier he said “Barack O–“V”– ama. He sounds tired. Exhaustion, a symptom :
“Confusion
When exhaustion is more severe, inattentiveness may turn into confusion. A person may temporarily forget what they are doing, where they are or where they were going. A strong feeling of malaise is also likely. If the stupor is bad enough the person may not be able to think or talk properly.

Posted on March 31, 2012 at 11:00amI guess you hear what you want to hear. I have a more open mind about these things.
Plus, people who are racists tend to cry racism (in order to deflect from the truth) more than non-racists since non-racists don’t usually think in terms of race to begin with.

Posted on March 30, 2012 at 10:26amSounded like “Nig” to me, but considering it doesn‘t make sense in context and Santorum’s penchant for messing up while speaking, I’d say he just slipped up and changed whatever word he was going to say at a very inopportune place, making it sound much worse than it actually was.
No news here, folks.

You could very well be right. I think I was probably influenced by the article title and expecting to hear it; “neg” makes a lot more sense.

Posted on March 30, 2012 at 11:15amSantorum himself probably can’t remember where he was going with that. I think the one word you can safely rule out is the one they all want it to be.

Posted on March 30, 2012 at 5:12pmMy best guess is that he was going for negotiator or something of that nature, because it’s really the only word I can think of right now that starts with an neg and fits in that context.
