Man-on-dog's Mortgage Raises Interest, Eyebrows
Integrity.
Senator/douchebag Rick Santorum and his wife received a $500,000, five-year freedom bribe mortgage for their Leesburg, Va., home from a private Philadelphia bank run by a major campaign donor - even though its stated policy is to make loans only to its "affluent" investors, which the senator is not.
Good-government experts said the mortgage raises serious questions about Santorum's conduct at a time when he is the Senate GOP's point man on ethics reform. They said it would be a violation of the Senate's ethics rules if Santorum received something a regular citizen could not get.

It gets better and frothier: a probe into Santorum's political finances also found "unorthodox expenses" and interesting accounting methods.
News experiment:
1. Predict how long it will take before the MSM covers this story.
2. Predict how long it would take if "Santorum" had been substituted with "Hillary Clinton."
3. Predict how long it will take before the MSM brings up the "but Clinton defense" (see #1).
