No, its not. the point is that owning a home does not make it your residence. the clearest example of this is a landlord. the logic of asserting that owning a home and paying taxes on it makes it your residence is false. Come on, this is logic 101, ie "all dogs are animals but not all animals are dogs." I am arguing a point of logic, not the ethics, appropriateness or merrit of representing a district you do not live in.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213262.post-1148673219949883982006-05-26T15:53:00.000-04:002006-05-26T15:53:00.000-04:00Let's not forget he's also committing tax fraud si...Let's not forget he's also committing tax fraud since he claims a homestead tax exemption on the property, which can only be used by residents of the state if the property is the primary residence for a majority of the year.<BR/><BR/>This was part of the debate in the past few years because the people who used to live at the home before this recent spat were his wife's neice and her husband. The Santorums refused to answer questions if they rented the property because that would negate their claim for the homestead exemption they were getting on the property.djhlightshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10864568816457232014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213262.post-1148672038112708892006-05-26T15:33:00.000-04:002006-05-26T15:33:00.000-04:00btw, it's spelled "capisce"btw, it's spelled "capisce"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213262.post-1148666879319201582006-05-26T14:07:00.001-04:002006-05-26T14:07:00.001-04:00uh, lemme see here. if the Senator and his family...uh, lemme see here. if the Senator and his family actually LIVED in the house he would have no need for the Capitol Police to drive 500 miles to tell him what any REAL homeowner knows; the standard security measures for a property (see KDKA-TV report). it's obvious these measures were not executed because... why do so if you're not residing there. case solved.<BR/><BR/>of course, the other option is to blame it on your rival Senate candidate.<BR/><BR/>really, it's all pretty embarassing and trivial PR... and much ado about nothing.<BR/><BR/>i think Mrs. Santorum should stick to knitting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213262.post-1148666865843733582006-05-26T14:07:00.000-04:002006-05-26T14:07:00.000-04:00Um..I think he has rented it out in the past.Um..I think he has rented it out in the past.Ol' Frothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11001073150811372903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213262.post-1148664064477665182006-05-26T13:21:00.000-04:002006-05-26T13:21:00.000-04:00you're comparing apples to oranges.

As noted on Keystone Politics, a landlord owns a building and pays taxes on it, but that does not mean he or she lives there. It is NOT the landlord's residence, it is the tennents residence--LEGALLY. Even a landlord who owns a vacant building cannot claim residence, because he/she does not live there. and SANTORUM is the one that made this an issue when he first ran.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213262.post-1148645707102937162006-05-26T08:15:00.000-04:002006-05-26T08:15:00.000-04:00and also who cares if there is no furniture in it....and also who cares if there is no furniture in it. he can do whatever he wants with the house. it is his, he pays taxes on it, it's a residence. you are just whining and your insignificant post proves it, especially when you post something as trivial as furniture or no furniture in a house. i am convinced that you need an anti-depressant drug. paxil may help you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213262.post-1148645532639104042006-05-26T08:12:00.000-04:002006-05-26T08:12:00.000-04:00it would be funny to see how you would feel if som...it would be funny to see how you would feel if someone lurked around your home. you are justifying trespassing.<BR/><BR/>santorum has every right, he owns the home, and pays taxes on the home, so it's LEGALLY his residence. any further questions?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
