A Bumper Sticker For Rick Santorum

[Hat tip: Operation Yellow Elephant]
Pennsylvania Republican Senator Rick Santorum, in a tight race for reelection in Novembr 2006, recently compared putting a bumper sticker on one's car to serving one's country in uniform. I am so not kidding. Santorum:

"And yet we have brave men and women who are willing to step forward because they know what's at stake. They're willing to sacrifice their lives for this great country. What I'm asking all of you tonight is not to put on a uniform. Put on a bumper sticker. Is it that much to ask? Is it that much to ask to step up and serve your country?"

Santorum wasn't talking about a "Support the Troops" sticker, he was talking about a "Rick Santorum" bumper sticker - minus a few important words. This is what he meant to say:

Rick Santorum = Culture of Corruption
