Ol' Barry sure can pick 'em, can't he?


NEW YORK (AP) -- New York's attorney general is suing former Obama car czar Steven Rattner over his role in a "pay-to-play" scandal at the state pension fund.

In two suits filed Thursday, Attorney General Andrew Cuomo accuses Rattner of paying illegal kickbacks to help his private equity firm land a lucrative pension fund investment.

Cuomo is seeking at least $26 million from Rattner, and a lifetime ban from the securities industry.

Separately, the Securities Exchange Commission announced Thursday that Rattner had agreed to pay $6.2 million to settle similar charges.

A spokesman for the financier did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment.
