The burglaries occurred on Dec. 13 while the FBI was holding an annual holiday party in a Pittsburgh brewery. Authorities say the equipment taken from three cars belongs to FBI and Secret Service agents.

The designated drivers should have stayed with the vehicles.

Has Conyers scheduled hearings on this yet?

Surely, THIS is impeachable.

for someone.....

anyone....

[rockabyebaby]

And exactly what holiday was being held at the brewery?

[rockabyebaby]

s/b what holiday party!

[decimon]

And exactly what holiday was being held at the brewery?

On December thirteenth? The annual party.

On December thirteenth? The annual party

Oh, silly me, the ANNUAL holiday party, that clears it right up, thanks!!!

For their blatant incompetency, these government “security” agents should watch all of the McGruff’s crime-stopper TV spots.

We all go to Christmas parties, at all times of the month... and if you just happen to be “on call” you take your government issue vehicle, but you don’t DRINK! :)

There was a case a few years back where someone burgled a FBI van in a hotel garage and made off with several automatic weapons. Looks like the FBI is maintaining its low standards.

Nope, you NEVER take my (meaning taxpayer owned) government vehicle to a holiday party, especially if it is in a brewery. You avoid evil, even the appearance of evil when in the public trust.

But to be fair, it did not say that it was a government vehicle.

You're welcome. If you need any help with "spring break" then just let me know.

Anyone who’s ever been to Pittsburgh knows this could only be one brewery. It has to be the Church Brew Works. The brewery is in the building of an old church. They still have the stain-glassed windows, and the pews now serve as your seats. Walk down the aisle, and the beer vats are right behind the pulpit. The beer is fantastic there.

LOL.

Not true.

I’ve seen MANY people do it. LEGAL OR NOT, they do it. I never did such a thing and I report people I see (city, state, county) in places they shouldn’t be too. That’s MY TAX money they are wasting. And you’re right, it didn’t say that, and I was being funny. It was a joke. Get it? ha ha...

[rockabyebaby]

“Spring Break” I’m assuming is the opposite of the new and improved “winter break” yes? LOL!

[rockabyebaby]

I was more concerned about the name of the “holiday party” they were attending at the brewery!

[PAMadMax]

What about Penn Brewery?

[YourAdHere]

Is it good?

[mtbopfuyn]

Our tax dollars at work and play.

[PAMadMax]

North side, Pgh. Penn Pilsner, Penn Dark....mmmm. NEVER park in the street on the Northside at any hour of the day.

Good advice! I’ll have to try it next time in Pittsburgh. Always looking for a good brew pub.
