***Media Advisory*** Santorum to Hold News Conference Tonight to Respond to Bob Casey Defending John Kerry
At a news conference tonight, U.S. Senator Rick Santorum will join veterans to denounce John Kerry's recent comments regarding our soldiers in Iraq. Senator Santorum will also comment on Bob Casey's endorsement of John Kerry's comments in today's Philadelphia Inquirer: "From what I can gather, Kerry botched a joke. That's what he said, and I take him at his word. He served in combat. Last time I checked, the president and the vice president did not. The White House and the Santorum forces should get to work on dealing with the real problems in Iraq. The first thing they should do is fire Mr. Rumsfeld instead of spending a lot of time trashing Democrats." (Jennifer Loven, "'04 foes exchange fire anew on troops, war, education," The Associated Press via The Philadelphia Inquirer, November 1, 2006) John Kerry was scheduled to join Bob Casey Jr. for a fundraising event tonight at the Public House in Philadelphia but opted to cancel in light of his recent comments.   Who:              Senator Rick Santorum                        Sgt. Michael Sarro, Iraq war veteran                        James Warner, U.S. Marine and POW with Senator John McCain                        Ron Ziegler, Jewish Veteran of Vietnam war veteran   What:             News conference   Where:           Embassy Suites                         Fairmount Room                         1776 Benjamin Franklin Parkway                         Philadelphia, PA 19103   When:             Wednesday, November 1, 2006                           5:30 pm                             Press should be in place at 5:15 pm.

Demand that Casey send the Kerry cash back.

" . . . whatever John Kerry THINKS he did in a war 35 years ago . . ."

Oh, you mean those three whole months he served on a swift boat, including spending Christmas in Cambodia? And before his fake purple hearts enabled him to insist on going back stateside and abandoning his men?

Afterwards, those fond memories fighting at home for the troops by accusing them of rape, murder, and pillage, reminiscent of Ghengis Khan, before a congressional committee?

BUMP!!

Yahoo! Go, Rick, go!!!

[Petronski]

He should do it at 5:00, not 5:30...to be sure it's over in time for Levin!

[napscoordinator]

I know this sounds awful, but I hope the press shows up. Normally I would not even think like this, but the press is soooooooo liberal they might not even be there. I hope it is successful. This could be what Senator Santorum needs to win.

[RedRover]

All this is making it more obvious than ever that 12th District voters need to go out and vote a straight R! Let's pray Rick gives Diana Irey some coattails!

[SeaBiscuit]

Go Santorum!! Casey struck out!!

[Nancee]

BUMP!!!
