WASHINGTON, D.C. - Former Senator Rick Santorum announced today he is joining the Ethics and Public Policy Center think tank in Washington, D.C.
Santorum denied that he is taking the job because he could not find the house in Penn Hills he claims as his residence. "It is true that after losing the [Senatorial] election to Bob Casey, I drove around Penn Hills for several days looking for the house, and I never did find it," Santorum explained. "But that's not why I took this job. I took this job because someone gave me very clear directions to Breezewood, and from there I know exactly how to get to Washington without a map."
Santorum said his sole concern is insuring that there is a sufficient air supply in the think tank. "Once they close that latch, some of those tanks can get awfully stuffy," he said.
