Need any further proof that Rick Santorum is a total asshole?
I like the rest of DU have been just sickened at the magnitude of human suffering and utter devastation wrought by Katrina. So you can imagine my total DISGUST to receive a letter TODAY (although for some strange reason the letter was dated August 17) from Rick Santorum advocating MORE tax cuts.

Most notably, he is pushing to permanently repeal the "death" tax, make permanent the capital gains tax, make permanent cuts to taxes on dividends, and to repeal the 1990 tax increase on beer.

What the hell is WRONG with these greedy pigs? We are destroying our country with the debt that Bush has racked up with his filthy war and his obscene tax cuts to the wealthiest Americans. We are seeing massive human suffering of fellow Americans who need our help, and this ASSHOLE is shilling for MORE tax cuts?

I am beyond words. I hate these bastards.

1. Your state has the best chance yet to get rid of this jerk
I hope the Dems in PA channel their anger into hard work to defeat Santorum. What a victory that would be.

And they will destroy us all if we let them continue to rule and trust them.. ..they are a kind of psychic parasites in human suits feeding off the compassionate and scared.Santorum is not of the same kind of spirit as you or I are.

7. as a Pennsylvanian I can tell you why he won
because the first time he painted his opponent as a Virginian native running for the PA Senate...people didn't like that and voted for Rick and he turned around and moved to VA.

the second time around the Democrats in PA put up Ron Klink who was basically mimicing Rick and bashing his own party...and then people either hated Klink and didn't vote and or they figured they might as well keep pRicky because at least he would have tenure.

This time I am just hoping people have finally had enough

11. Hey bleedingheart, did your letter come today?
I just could not believe the timing. I called his office and I unloaded on his staffer. I told them I don't want one more stinking cent of my tax money spent on mailing out Santorum's disgusting propaganda, especially considering that there are people DYING thanks to Bush's drastic budget cuts to the project to repair New Orleans aging levee system and thanks to the lack of National Guard troops and equipment to save our citizens' lives. I asked where Santorum and Bush were while people were drowning in their attics.

I was so mad I was shaking.
