Sign This Petition - From Bob Casey to Bill Frist
I originally posted this in the "Pennsylvania" Forum, but since many people here (other than PA'ers) hate Santorum, I thought I'd post it here to get some help for Bob Casey.

Dear Joan,


Early this morning, Bob Casey sent a letter to Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist expressing his outrage at the Senator's decision to tap Rick Santorum to craft ethics and lobbying reform legislation.


Not only has Rick Santorum accepted more money from lobbyists than any other senator this election cycle, he is also the leader of the notorious K Street Project. This group, founded by Tom Delay and Jack Abramoff, places their hand picked Republican friends into the very lobbying firms that Santorum is now being asked to regulate.


The K Street Project and Santorum's selection to lead ethics reform are indicative of an arrogance of power in Washington that needs to change.


Sign our petition to demand that Rick Santorum shut down the K Street Project and step aside from his leadership position in drafting ethics reform legislation. Please join us today in sending a powerful message that we will not stand for this hypocrisy.


Sign the petition


Bob Casey is a principled leader who will fight to restore responsibility and accountability in government. Please join us and make your voice heard by signing this petition and sharing Bob's letter with your friends.





Thank you,

Jay Reiff
Campaign Manager

1. Done - And Here Are My Added Comments...
Pennsylvanians for Casey!! Go back to Virginia, Santorum...we don't want you in Pennsylvania! We want two PENNSYLVANIA Senators once again! Go away, Rick, Virginia wants you.

(I AM a Pennsylvanian, with every intention to vote Sanorum OUT!!)

2. Thanks, Kalisiin. My comments to Ricky
were that I heard him lying today at the LIVE press conference on C-Span about the K Street Project. I told him that I heard him involve Senators Hutchinson and Smith and that we here in PA were tired of the lying.

3. Done. And I added this:
Don't let this fox guard the henhouse. People think that the Republicans are sleasy enough without doing something so obvious.

8. DUne--and my comment
Paraphrasing Harry Reid, I wrote:

The very idea of Santorum drafting lobbying reform legislation is kind of like John Gotti cracking down on the Mafia--or Osama bin Laden leading the fight against terrorists!
