Santorum Calls Russia Remarks ‘Disturbing’

Says Obama won't defend U.S. from Iran.

Political etiquette be damned, Rick Santorum is echoing his fellow presidential candidate Mitt Romney's attacks on President Obama. While campaigning in Wisconsin, he called Obama's accidentally-recorded convo with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev "very disturbing" and said Obama was "suggesting that he's willing to sacrifice American security and willing to sacrifice the security of our allies," according to a Reuters reporter. Obama's message, Rick said, was "After the election I"ll be happy. I'll be happy to throw our allies under the bus...don't worry we're not going to defend ourselves or our allies" from Iranian nuclear attacks.
