“K Street Project” Founder Headed for… Yup.Ah, there’s been an explosion of irony in aisle four. Muckrakers, your assistance is needed.
The National Review, as part of a profile of former Sen. Rick Santorum’s (R-PA) new gig at a right-wing think tank heading up their “Americaâs Enemies” program, reveals that “The former senator also plans to join a law firm in D.C.,” as a lobbyist, we presume.
âIâm talking to a few firms right now,” Santorum told the magazine.
Now, Pennsylvania voters tossed him out of office in part because of his role heading up the GOP effort to plug Republican lobbyists up with serious corporate cash, a chunk of which went to Republican campaign coffers. The “K Street Project,” it was called. Named after the street on which it appears Santorum will soon be working.
