Sarah Palin rips Rick Santorum over comments

**UPDATE: Santorum responds**

Well I think she does anyway. She starts out like she’s blowing it off, then BAM!

“I think the reports were much worse than what he really said. I think some things were really taken out of context. So I will not call him the knuckle dragging neanderthal that perhaps others would want to call him. I’ll let his wife call him that instead.”

I left the rest of the interview on the clip as she talks Egypt and hits the Obama Administration for not rejecting the Muslim Brotherhood out right, but instead giving them a seat at the table.

UPDATE: Santorum responds on Greta after she plays Sarah’s response on Hannity. I think it’s pretty classy and it fits with exactly what I thought he meant last night. He meant no ill-will.

Now it looks to me like Sarah went a little overboard in her response. Politico is getting a lot of mileage out of this as they have already written another story on it and it keeps going for another news cycle or two. I think Sarah should have just dismissed it recognizing that he meant no harm.
