"Allegheny County prosecutors don't know if U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum violated any laws by getting a $70 annual tax break on his Penn Hills house.
But District Attorney Stephen Zappala Jr.'s office announced Thursday it will investigate.

Democracy for Pittsburgh, a group of Democratic Party activists, petitioned Zappala for the inquiry. Democrats have targeted the Republican in next year's election.

"This is obviously a partisan political move on the part of these people, motivated either by the Democratic (National) Committee or the campaign of my opponent," said Santorum, the Senate's No. 3 Republican. "I'd hope the district attorney would not waste taxpayers' resources on playing political games."

Democracy for Pittsburgh is affiliated with Democracy for America, a grassroots organization that grew out of Democrat Howard Dean's presidential campaign....."

The Republicans are such whiners when you want to investigate them...whiny little babies.

2. $70? Huh?

Why is this $70 significant? On the grand scale of political corruption and fraud, that sure seems pretty trivial. What am I missing?

Thanks!

4. He lives in VA actually. Not a nice thing to run in PA

The purpose is to make people totally aware of what is going on. I like the idea.
