roanoke,va - WASHINGTON (AP) - Now it can be told: The mysterious petty theft that President Barack Obama’s new computer chief committed at age 21 was shoplifting four dress shirts worth $134 from J.C. Penney. A 1996 Montgomery County, Md., police report obtained by The Associated Press on Wednesday under a public records law shows Vivek Kundra was observed by a security guard putting the men’s shirts into a shopping bag and leaving the store without paying. Sgt. Tom Stanton wrote that Kundra was arrested after a brief foot chase and the property was recovered

I bet the Clintons wished he worked for them to help when they moved out of the White House. His past "experience" would have been invaluable.

Our White House is a Marxist "Animal House".

A kind man will give another the shirt off his back. A liberal will give the shirt off another’s back to help a third. Officials in the Obama administration seeks to streamline government by cutting out the middleman, taking the shirts directly from the seller without the necessity of having to take them off some rich person’s back (to give to a third).

Is the O administration trying to “out-crook” the Clinton admin?

There are a few things I did at the age of 21 that I am thankful I never got caught doing. I would like to think that 20 years later I have learned a thing or two.

Do we really want to play this game of gocha for stuff done years ago.....especially when the here and now is far, far, far, far worse? It’s not like he left a girl to drown after wrecking a car.

I give him a pass on stolen shirts at age 21....I hate this process of dirt digging for past sins....

"youthful indiscretion"

The excuses keep getting thinner. Now that Kundra is in the "Bigs", now what?

It actually counts as training for government work.

I imagine he put it on his resume.

This is one of those odd topics in which I am morally conflicted.

On the one hand I loathe the Democrats and Chief Bam! to such an extent that I wish them continued bad press and failures.

On the flip side, all my life I have been a staunch defender of forgiving people for being stupid and young. As one of those “boring” people who lived a straight laced young life, I have seen many of my “exciting” friends who crossed the line many times, sober up and grow to be even more responsible and conservative than me. I think that because they were given a chance to settle down, they succeeded and are today good Church going, tax paying, country loving, neighbor caring citizens.

Had we thrown them all in Jail and given them criminal records, they would all be doing blue collar jobs today.

Just my 2 cents.

He should be National Security Advisor. He would be great at sneaking documents out of the National Archives.

He just got back from having to take a leave of absence on his first day to deal with a police investigation of bribes and corruption going on in his former office. It would be funny if it all wasn’t so outrageous.
