Not only could Santoum be in trouble for not disclosing the speaking fees he also upsets the Jewish fundamentalists that reject the Christian views of Jesus Christ as the savior.
"In 2010 Rick Santorum was paid to speak to a controversial religious group unpopular with some Jewish leaders because it seeks to convince Jews to accept Jesus.
The Messianic Jewish Alliance of America paid Santorum $6,000 to speak at its 2010 annual conference, according to a filing released Wednesday showing a total of nearly $95,000 in speaking fees that Santorum previously failed to disclose.
The alliance supports Messianic Judaism, which embraces Jewish heritage and customs but holds the fundamental Christian belief that Jesus is the son of God. Its beliefs are similar to those of the group Jews for Jesus, which has drawn particular ire from Jewish leaders for its proselytizing efforts.
But Joel Chernoff, CEO of the Messianic Jewish Alliance, said “Israel could not have a better friend than” Santorum, an observant Catholic whose speech to the group dealt with the threat of Islamic extremism. Chernoff said he personally supports Santorum, “and I think most Messianic Jews would probably say that,” though he conceded Santorum’s passing affiliation with his group “could be a factor” with traditional Jewish voters.
Some Jewish leaders have denounced Messianic Judaism as “religious fraud” intended to convert Jews to Christianity."

What ever you do don't mess with the JEWS . Mess with them and you mess with GOD>reply - luvguins 2012/03/23 00:09:24He is showing his true colors....+2The Messianic Jews are a spinoff cult, and Santorum is corrupt. A few weeks before his big loss in PA in 2006 the Center for Responsible Ethics in Politics named Santorum as one of 3 most corrupt members of Congress. Guess he hasn't learned anything, and he can't resist pimping his religion there and in evangelical churches for votes. If those entities are going to campaign for the GOP they need to pay taxes.reply
