As for Santorum's potential opponent in the fall, Barack Obama's three years in the Senate (2005 through 2007) overlapped only with Santorum's final two years. (In 2008, Obama effectively left the Senate to campaign for President and therefore didn't cast enough votes for NTU to score him that year.) In both of the years that the two men overlapped (2005 and 2006), as well as throughout Obama's three years' worth of preparation for the presidency, Obama's GPA was 0.00 - a rock-solid F.

Now that's acting like a Democrat - something Santorum has never done.

The circular firing squad continues!

The NTU favors either a Flat Tax or the FairTax (a national sales tax with rebate) for the United States, as opposed to the current income tax system now in use.[2] The organization argues in favor of the line-item veto for the president. [3] NTU generally opposes crop subsidies by the government (such as for sugar and ethanol).[4] The organization's briefs and policy papers decry the "death tax," (a tax on estates)[5] and supports deregulation.[6]

They may claim to be non-partisan, but the evidence clearly is in.

You may be correct; I guess if you look it to it they are partisan.

NTU is a nonpartisan, nonprofit citizen organization founded in 1969 to work for lower taxes, smaller government, and economic freedom at all levels.

Those are not the Democrat ideals of bloated government, high taxes and reduction in all freedoms, economic and otherwise.

When I find a Republican that actually cuts the size of government, you might actually have a point there.

Ron Paul and that should scare you as much as it scares me.
