The Barage Continues Agaisnt Santorum....
As of late, each day in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, finds yet another condemning letter about our absentee Senator . Today's letter, by Sister Liguori Rossner brilliantly sets Santorum up as a righteous soul, and then mercilessly pummels him with the truth of his actions.

------
As a teacher for the Diocese of Pittsburgh for 14 years, one important lesson I learned was that no matter what I said to the child, whatever the parents said superseded my message. What parents say and how they live sends a message stronger than any teacher's voice no matter what the issue.

Sen. Rick Santorum and his wife have taught their children a powerful lesson on civic responsibility by refusing to pay any tuition money to the Penn Hills School District for their children who attended the Pennsylvania Cyber Charter School ("Penn Hills Loses Bid to Charge Santorum," July 12). Released from that payment on a technicality shows that even an upstanding, moral gentleman like Sen. Santorum teaches his children the following lessons:

1) Take advantage of the system whenever you can.

2) The little guy pays while the rich and powerful guy gets away with it.

3) As a Catholic, you have no obligation to pay your share to the common good in spite of Catholic social doctrine.

Complete letter...http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/05202/541074.stm

4. The Letter Was So Good....
I sent it on to the Casey Campaign in hopes they'll use the Sister's points in a campaign ad.
