When a person is so rude to break that social contract, it is no longer necessary to be civil to them. Furthermore treating that person who broke the social contract the same as everyone else means you don't recolonize the importance of civility, you do not recognize virtue.
Santorum is #2 in Iowa

If you call them out by name for hypocrisy, then sure.

The question boils down to why should someone tolerate what they think is wrong.

and when santorum tells you that your lifestyle is worse than pedophilia and bestiality?

I don't like your definition of tolerance and you're not consistent with it anyway.

He should stay, they should all stay. Trump should get back into it and Palin should jump in too.

It kinda is; Paul cannot even win a majority of Republicans, let alone the country.

Ironically, Paul has a better chance of winning the general election than the republican primary.

What's the likelihood of Paul running as an independent/3rd party if he doesn't get the GOP nod? *NM*

Not very high, I think. He didn't try it last time either, and it would hand Obama the election. *NM*

many states have laws that you cannot run 3rd party after being on the ballot for a party primary

Yes, he and Romney have that in common, but Pauls positions are (mostly) sincere.
