Heck yes! Marguerite, you do great work providing the links and sources.
Citizens Against Government Waste which is a bi partisan taxpayer watchdog site blasted Santorum as a big PORKER for his 90 MILLION dollar deal with Hillary Clinton and Lieberman over funding a study as to how watching tv affects children! 90 MILLION IN TAXPAYER MONEY! that is worse than the shrimp on the treadmill or at least very close
At the end of the day (his Congressman career) the final count is terrifying: Santorum sponsored or co-sponsored 51 bills to increase spending and failed to sponsor or co-sponsor a SINGLE spending cut bill.
Tell me again how true conservative Rick is. With him no chance of a balanced budget, tax cuts or reducing the deficit. He’s a pro-big government, pro-more spending and pro-life nanny-statist...

Only $90 million?
“Santorum sponsored at least two Senate bills and pushed to amend a mammoth Medicare overhaul to include the extra spending (total $400 million), which would have benefited Universal Health Services, a Pennsylvania-based hospital management company with facilities in Puerto Rico. If it seems at odds with the small-government philosophy Mr. Santorum now espouses in his presidential campaign, it was in line with his legislative efforts to help businesses in his state.
Within months of leaving the Senate (in 2006), Mr. Santorum joined the board of Universal Health Services, where he collected $395,000 in director’s fees and stock options before resigning last year.”
