Through some bureaucratic snafu, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has sent me two absentee ballots, which presents me with two opportunities to cast a vote against the GOP's most vulnerable Senator, Satan Lite, a/k/a Rick Santorum. The ballots are ridiculously low-tech, and there's no way to track the fact that both would have been cast by the same person.
For those who don't know of him, here are some gems from Wiki:
Obeying election laws versus the expulsion of Rick Santorum from our government. Which is the greater good?
For those who don't know of him, here are some gems from Wiki:
In 2001, Santorum tried unsuccessfully to insert language which came to be known as the "Santorum Amendment" into the No Child Left Behind bill that sought to promote the teaching of intelligent design while questioning the academic standing of evolution in public schools.
...
The cornerstone of Santorum's current legislative agenda is the politicization of the Charity, Aid, Recover and Empowerment (CARE) Act. The CARE Act provides incentives for charitable giving, opportunities for low-income families to build their individual assets, and equity between sectarian and secular organizations as they provide charitable social services. Senator Santorum has been advised on this matter by James Dobson of the Family Research Council. On the subject of CARE, Senator Santourm has accused CARE of being "anti-American," and having what he describes as "a pro-prostitution agenda."
...
Though not a named author of the special Terri Schiavo legislation, Santorum played a key role in shepherding the bill through the Senate to a vote on March 20, 2005. Santorum has frequently stated that he does not believe a "right to privacy" exists under the Constitution, even within marriage; he has been especially critical of the Supreme Court decision in Griswold v. Connecticut (1965), which held that the Constitution guaranteed the aforementionied right, and on that basis, overturned a law prohibiting the sale and use of contraceptives.
