UPDATE: Via Miss Kitty, it looks like REPUBLICAN Darrell's minions have been busily scrubbing Wikipedia! Nice to know they read us, huh?

Dear, dear REPUBLICAN Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), the incoming subpoena-wielding chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, was on Faux News this weekend, attacking ACORN and Attorney General Eric Holder, talking about how "corrupt" the Obama administration is. I thought I'd take the opportunity to remind people just who's lecturing us on morality. Via Wikipeda:


A retired Army sergeant claimed that REPUBLICAN Issa stole a Dodge sedan from an Army post near Pittsburgh in 1971. The sergeant said he recovered the car after confronting and threatening him.

REPUBLICAN Issa denied the allegation and no charges were filed.

In 1972, REPUBLICAN Issa and his brother allegedly stole a red Maserati sports car from a car dealership in Cleveland.

He and his brother were indicted for car theft, but the case was dropped.

That same year,REPUBLICAN Issa was convicted in Michigan for possession of an unregistered gun. He received three months probation and paid a $204 fine.

[...] On December 28, 1979,REPUBLICAN Issa and his brother allegedly faked the theft of Issa's Mercedes Benz sedan.

REPUBLICAN Issa and his brother were charged for grand theft auto, but the case was dropped by prosecutors for lack of evidence.

Later, REPUBLICAN Issa and his brother were charged for misdemeanors, but that case was not pursued by prosecutors.

REPUBLICAN Issa accused his brother of stealing the car, and said that the experience with his brother was the reason he went into the car alarm business.

A day after a court order was issued, giving Issa control of automotive alarm company A.C. Custom over an unpaid $60,000 debt, REPUBLICAN Issa allegedly carried a cardboard box containing a handgun into the office of A.C. Custom executive, Jack Frantz, and told Frantz he was fired.

In a 1998 newspaper article, Frantz said REPUBLICAN Issa had invited him to hold the gun and claimed extensive knowledge of guns and explosives from his Army service.

In response, REPUBLICAN Issa said, "Shots were never fired.... I don't recall having a gun. I really don't. I don't think I ever pulled a gun on anyone in my life."

Of course not. Bill Maher will continue to invite him onto his show, and the ladies and gentlemen of our corporate media will assume that none of this even happened. It's so much easier that way!

Rep. Darrell Issa IS a REPUBLICAN CROOK IN CHARGE OF DOING THE RIGHT THING IN CONGRESS.

Just not worth reading. I'm noticing that you only put things about reps. we can't even vote for on here. Try something relevant for a change.
