Darrell Issa understandably likes to hide behind the fact that he has never actually been prosecuted for his alleged criminal activities, but that doesn’t mean that the allegations haven’t been made.
Former White House senior adviser David Pollute took to Twitter to question Rep. Darrell Issa’s ethics after the California Republican trashed press secretary Jay Carney.
“Strong words from Mr Grand Theft Auto and suspected arsonist/insurance swindler. And loose ethically today,” Plouffe tweeted on Sunday, linking to a video of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee chairman on CNN’s “State of the Union” calling Carney a “paid liar” who was “making things up” about the IRS scandal.
His business partner thought he lit their building on fire and Issa blamed his brother for the car thefts. One of the things I like about David Plouffe is that he doesn’t let stuff like that go. If Issa wants to make unfounded accusations about the administration then he’s going to get brushed back. It’s my understanding that Mr. Issa is the richest member of Congress, more wealthy even than Secretary of State John Kerry, the heir to the Heinz ketchup fortune. He made his money with those annoying “please step away from the car” alarms. I guess it takes a thief to deter a thief.
