Senator Menendez to be Subpoenaed?

Interesting, if true:

Democratic Sen. Robert Menendez told The Associated Press Wednesday that he has not been subpoenaed in any federal investigation, a claim Republican opponent Tom Kean Jr. continued to maintain.

"There is a subpoena that has his name on it that was issued by an impaneled grand jury and delivered by the FBI " Kean said during an interview with the AP. "That's a fact."

In a separate interview with the AP later Wednesday, Menendez denied Kean's claim. No federal agency has publicly said Menendez has been subpoenaed, and a Menendez campaign spokesman said Kean has no proof to make such a serious accusation.
"There are no such subpoenas to my knowledge whatsoever," Menendez

The U.S. attorney's office has issued a subpoena seeking records from the North Hudson Community Action Corp. related to a lease agreement it had with Menendez, who rented a house he owned in Union City to the group, and also helped the nonprofit organization obtain federal funds.

Well, I hope Kean is right about this - and not just because I loathe Menendez - because if this turns out to be untrue, then it allows the Democrats to paint all of the well-documented ethical issues dogging Menendez with the same "another false Kean accusation" kind of brush. One thing is certain - Menendez has the AP in his corner; the above-linked article highlights his denials and pays no attention to the actual subpoena issued in regards to the Senator's earnings of over $300,000 from the so-called "North Hudson Community Action Corp."

Let's go to the videotape! Over at Enlighten New Jersey, they've got video of Menendez's appearance on ABC's This Week, during in which he acknowledged being under federal investigation, and his later denial of the existance of the nvestigation during a recent candidate debate.

How do you know when Menendez is lying? When his lips are moving, right?
