Freudian slip n. A verbal mistake that is thought to reveal an unconscious belief, thought, or emotion.
People have been saying for years that Rick Santorum does not live in Pennsylvania. These claims are mainly based upon the fact that the person of Rick Santorum does not reside bodily in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Evidently Rick Santorum now agrees with his critics and has come clean, intentionally or not...
From our friends over at
Santorum Exposed!
Now this may seem trivial to some but for those us who live in PA it is perhaps the most important thing Rick Santorum has ever said. There has been much anger and rhetoric on this site and others about how we must defeat Rick Santorum at any cost, some even seem to suggest that it would worth abandoning our Democratic values in order to score a victory against Republican tyranny. A tyranny exchange program perhaps?
Well it may not be necessary anymore. You see, Rick has admitted that he is not a resident of PA and thus he is not eligible to run for our Senate seat. In fact, he is not eligible to hold the seat right now...
This is not the first time this issue has been brought up. Santorum narrowly escaped this issue the last time it came up when a state hearing officer dismissed a case brought against him by the Penn Hills School District because they did not file their case "in a timely manner."
Now it is possible that Santorum, his wife, and his six children do actually live in a two-bedroom house in Penn Hills, PA. It may be that they have managed to reside at this location and avoid detection by thier neighbors for years on end. If they do actually reside there then I can understand Santorum's dim view on society. You see the Santorum family has eight members and since two other people, Bart and Alyssa DeLuca, actually live in the house in question that means that they enjoy a snug sleeping arrangement of FIVE people per bedroom. Evidentaly is does take a village after all.
Now what we need is someone who is fluent with the legal system to help us pursue this issue in PA. Maybe Alan Sandals has a buddy that will take up the issue pro bono? >=)
Lets face it the best way to beat Santorum is to ensure he cannot run at all.
Now I don't want to turn this into a debate over the Democratic nomination but if a miracle does happen and Santorum does not dodge this bullet then it may be time to reconsider if we want to gamble our futures on Bob Casey Jr.
