WASHINGTON, DC — Former presidential candidate Rick Santorum attacked the media and "smart people" for not being on the side of conservatives in a speech to the Values Voter Summit on Saturday.

"We will never have the media on our side, ever, in this country," Santorum, a former Pennsylvania senator, told the audience at the Omni Shoreham hotel. "We will never have the elite, smart people on our side."

The media "doesn't like the other side," Santorum said. "And not necessarily, I would argue, because they agree with them, but because they can influence the country.

"If just a few people make decisions about what this world looks like, what this country looks like, then you have people sitting in offices at major media outlets and Hollywood who think they can deal with a small group of people, to get them to jump through the hoops they want you to," Santorum said.

Well, did say "elite, smart people".

So you can be elite on his side, or smart on his side, but not "elite, smart".

smart people will never be on the side of any politician. Politicians want yes men, the majority of smart people are not.

It's the other way around. The politicians are yes men for the lobbyists. I thought you knew better son.

They are whores, understood?!
