Santorum: I didn't go to a Catholic high school when I was living in PA
Edited on Wed Apr-26-06 03:15 PM by LynneSin
When I was living? Wait - where do you live now Rick? I mean you fricking represent Pennyslvania!!

BTW - there is a video there too so that's what he said - when he was living. I mean, I didn't go to Catholic School when I was living in Pennsylvania either. I lived in PA for 30+ years but of course if I ran for office now it would have to be in my state of Delaware.

Rick Santorum recently addressed students at North Catholic High School in Pittsburgh and said something that we found very interesting. Rick was telling the students that when he was growing up he didn't live close enough to a Catholic high school to attend one. But that's not what we found interesting, what was interesting was when Rick said this, "So, I didn't go to a Catholic high school when I was living in Pennsylvania." (emphasis ours)

We find it refreshing that Rick has decided to drop all pretense and acknowledge that he doesn't live in the state he represents. Here's the video:

2. Yes but technically he family lives in a $750K home in Leesburg Virginia
btw, that loan came through a private bank who's loan qualifications someone like Santorum would normally not meet.

8. That must be an old assessment amount.
His Leesburg, VA house with its four acres of land would sell for well over a million.

3. My older brother

walked three blocks to get on a bus and then transferred busses twice to attend Roman Catholic High School in Philadelphia back in the 60's. We didn't live close to a Catholic High School but my parents assured he attended. I walked six blocks to attend Catholic grade school. We moved before my high school years. No wonder I never ran for Senator of Pennsylvania. Santorum is the reason I send 15 bucks a month to DSCC and I live in Mississippi.

5. But the thing is - Santorum doesn't live in Pennsylvania
I mean, there are people from his school district of "residency" in Pennsylvania trying to sue him for the money they had to spend for his kids who happen to live in fricking Virginia. Rick and his family have been living for years in a $750k home in Virginia while he uses a $100k 2BR/1BA home in PA for his place of residency. Thing is - the people that live there is a relative of his and that relative's spouse.

6. rick is well trained
by the republican machine. He is not responsible for anything and if he is, he will not admit it. He is an embarrassment to my birth state and should not only be voted out of office but put in shackles and taken away to a cell with a very large dog as a cellmate.

9. I don't pray that much, but when I do, that's what I wish for -
to hear the words "Former Senator, Rick Santorum."

I also pray that the Squirrel Hill Tunnels will be imploded.
