Here is the short story. Santorum no longer lives in Pennsylvania. The Pennsylvania media finds this interesting—in part because Santorum got his house position (prior to his current Senate position) by pointing out that his incumbent opponent no longer maintained a residence in Pennsylvania. Anyway, when a couple of Democrats reported that there was no furniture in the house and no shades in the windows, Santorum went ballistic. Listen to the audio of Santorum going ballistic.

I worked as an intern for Congressman Doug Walgren in 1978. He was a fine, decent Democrat. It kills me that someone like Santorum took his seat. Oh how I wish I could still vote in PA. Better chance of beating Santorum than any of the US Senators here in New Hampshire.</p> I’m from Pittsburgh and, like others, still read the Post-Gazette.

Iraq’s problems have to do with bombs and suicide bombers. What can an ARMY do to stop those activities? Nothing that I can think of. So what are our troops supposed to be doing- other than driving around the country and getting shot at?”

Maybe that’s why the whole thing reminded me SO much of the Vietnam rhetoric. Get a clue, boys. Oh, that’s right–you didn’t fight, and you obviously weren’t paying attention.
