Birther Metal Dude Dave Mustaine: Rick Santorum Would Be 'A Really Cool President,' 'Like JFK'

Hahahahahahahahaha, here is Megadeth's (and Metallica's) Dave Mustaine, last relevant when your editrix was a sophomore in high school, being really "hip" and "with-it" and "politically informed." First: Obama is not an American (duh):

"I have a lot of questions about [President Obama], but certainly not where he was born," Mustaine said. "I know he was born somewhere else than America."

[...]

"How come [Obama] was invisible until he became, uh, whatever he was in Illinois?" he asked. (Obama was previously a senator.) "They don't have any record of him."

Well, Obama was also the president of Harvard Law Review, so some people had heard of him. So, that's stupid. But far funnier than just yer typical brain-damaged Hessian japery is what comes next in Mustaine's interview with Canadian radio host George Stroumboulopoulos, and that is the cool hipness of one Mr. Former Senator Rick Santorum:

He looks "like he could be a really cool president," Mustaine explained, "kind of like a JFK kind of guy." If "JFK kind of guy" means "extremist, paranoid, spitty, sneery, whiny, pouty, smegma-lipped, and totally itching for a new Inquisition," then yeah, Rick Santorum is kind of like that.
