Santorum under scrutiny, the impression one gets is that of an embarrassed faux conservative who is shuffling off to the left as fast as he can. This shuffle left was actually a pamphlet put out by the Santorum campaign called "50 Things You May Not Know About Rick Santorum."
Among those 50 things is the aforementioned strong support for legislation raising the minimum wage. In addition to being a shameless union measure, this hurts the free market. A sample of the other items include:
- Sponsoring FAIR CAIR act to force companies to pay benefits to laid-off workers.
- Working with John McCain on campaign finance reform.
- Bragging about bringing home federal tax money for clean energy projects.
- Working with Bono to spend tax money on poverty in the third world.
- Working with Bono to spend tax money on AIDS.
- Sponsoring legislation to regulate gas prices.
- Authoring the Pet Animal Welfare State Bill. (Huh.)
- Voting for record tax funding of Pennsylvania public schools.
- Authoring The Care Act: funding for Non Profits.
- Working with Joe Lieberman on Working Families Act.
- Supported increased tax funding for Chesapeake Bay.
- Voted to fund an indoor Rain Forest in Iowa
