Internet communities across the web are alleging Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum slipped up in a speech criticizing President Barack Obama's foreign policy, resulting in what appears to be a racial slur. While speaking to supporters at an Armory in Janesville, on March 27, Santorum says, we know? what Obama was like, the anti war, government ni--ah, with the last word being the alleged racil slur. Santorum seems to slip on his own speech after the phrasing. The video is queued to the moment in question here. Santorum has criticized Obama's foreign policy elsewhere. On Thursday at the Jelly Belly candy factory in Fairfield, Calif. he said, “Here’s the president of the United States, the leader of the free world, saying, ‘Give me a little space, buddy, a little space, a little flexibility, because I’ve got an election coming up and then I’ll be, then I’ll throw some of our other allies under the bus.”

Santorum's next campaign stop is in Wausau, Wisconsin.
