1. Of course we all have a past

but not necessarily a criminal one. The Congressman has always been and will always be a complete fraud.

2. And, IMO, dangerous. n/t

3. He should have remained a back-bencher

and kept his mouth shut. All this publicity he got after announcing he was going to investigate Obama may not work out too well for him.

4. Grand theft auto and arson - no convictions though

I heard about this on a replay of the Dianne Reams (sp?) show yesterday.

Thanks for posting this.

6. That didn't stop Republicans from going after the Clintons. And there is a lot more here

than there ever was on the Clintons. I don't see how Issa is going to manage to keep this all swept under the rug. I suspect at some point this will get legs and take off. Issa will try to muzzle a witness somewhere - or worse - and get caught. This is very predictable. The man is a crook and a thug. He is not going to change. Glass houses, stones, etc will apply here. Issa can't help himself.
