Santorum Stealing from Local School (?)

Rick Santorum is stealng $38,000/year from a local school district by pretending to reside there. Or so the school district and the neighbors think. To quote one fair (and, doubtless, balanced) source:

School board member Erin Vecchio, who is chair of the Democratic party in Penn Hills and lives near a two-bedroom house owned by the Santorums, said, "I live right down the street from the man. He's never there. ... He doesn't live here."

Hmm, sounds like a partisan hack-job to me. Oops, and she made that nasty little framing error, "I live right down the street from the man." Doh.

But let's set aside for the moment the possibility that Penn Hills Democrats are fighting horseshit with horseshit. The best thing about this story is how succulent and juicy it is. Deliciously juicy.
