I applaud Cantor for not making this a political issue. When notified of the investigation, he went directly to the DIRECTOR of the FBI to insure that he was aware of this.
It does not appear to be Cantors job to advise the WH of what the FBI is doing or not doing, as he is not privy to all the facts, but checking the validity before making it a political football seems to be the right course of action.
And Cantor was not alone by the way.....he did NOT make this a political football an that I applaud
