Lil' Ricky, Head Of "K Street Project", Put In Charge Of Ethics Reform By Bill Frist...Which is hilarious on it's face, since Senator Sanctimonious has been known to flit around the country in Wal-Mart's corporate jet and recently pulled off a little quid pro quo at the expense of the National Weather Service.
What's funnier is that the K Street Project which Ricky currently heads, is the lobbying arm of Tom DeLay (R-Orange Jumpsuit) and Grover Norquist, two of the many conservative crooks currently enmeshed in the Abramoff scandal.
But what is most astonishing is that Sen. Frist has just unknowingly (or knowingly) signed Lil' Ricky's political death warrant.
Why, you ask?
Santorum's 2006 challenger, Bob Casey, Jr. (D), has been focused on ethical reform since he was elected to his first statewide office back in 1996. Arguably, his biggest mission (and biggest appeal to PA voters) has been his focus on cleaning up government.
Casey has gone so far as to put together a 6-point plan for ethical reform in Washington, should he be elected.
What's Casey's #1 point, you ask? Close the K Street Project.
How does Santorum look to Pennsylvania voters when he's in charge of "cleaning up" the GOP, but is knee-deep in one of it's most controversial operations?
The same way he always looks: Like a disingenuous boob.
And come November, he'll look like the FORMER junior Senator from Pennsyvania...
UPDATE: Ricky's attempt at an election year "Moderate Makeover" continues...Today, he's urging President Bush to appoint a non-partisan panel to evalute U.S. progress in Iraq.
Nice try, Ricky.
First you flip-flopped on veteran's benefits, then you tried to distance yourself from the intelligent design fiasco, now you want to look like a critic of Bush's war even though you've been a yes-man to your master from day one.
Yup, it's 2006 alright!!!
