Schumer Staffers Eyed In FBI Probe

All because they can't win on the issues...

Two staffers on a Democratic political committee headed by Sen. Chuck Schumer are being investigated by the FBI for an alleged dirty trick — getting a Republican candidate's credit report illegally, officials confirmed yesterday. "We are investigating the matter jointly with the FBI," said a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's office in Washington.

Phil Singer, a spokesman for the Schumer-headed Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, said two staffers were instantly suspended — with pay — in July after admitting they obtained the credit report of Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael Steele, who is running for Senate.

How much do you want to bet that Schumer will not accept responsibility for this?

Suspended WITH PAY? Isn't that more of a reward than a punishment? I know I'd like me a good paid vacation.
