Yo, Philly! Rick Santorum has some shady stuff going on with his "charity" and lobbyists and campaign staffers. Right wing Republican Senator Rick Santorum is in deep, deep trouble. WTAE in Pittsburgh has found some interesting information about Santorum's "charity." Here are some excerpts:
...But politics is involved in the charity. Santorum put political lobbyists and campaign staffers in charge of Operation Good Neighbor.
Charles Black is a member of the board of advisers for Operation Good Neighbor, and a federally registered lobbyist with the Washington firm BKSH...
...Barbara Bonfiglio is treasurer of Operation Good Neighbor. She's also treasurer of Santorum's reelection campaign and his political action committee, America's Foundation. Bonfiglio is a principal in Williams and Jensen, a top Washington lobbying firm....
...Santorum isn't the only member of Congress with his own charity. Former House Speaker Tom Delay also established a non-profit. His charity's secretary was Barbara Bonfiglio, the same lobby firm principal who is in charge of the purse strings at Operation Good Neighbor.
Although I'm not a lawyer, I'd guess there is some fraud going on somewhere in that "charity."
