What a friggin' clown show. I pray he does and I hope he gets smoked. How narcissistic must these politicos be?

throw rocks and fruit/veggies at his vehicle every time he leaves his new TX home.

It's called the "ICE treatment"

Could at least work a private sector job and become a part of the community before running to represent them

Darrel Issa is already massively wealthy. Definitely a carpet bagger

What gets me is Issa is one of the richest politicians in DC. He is not doing it for the money. It has to be the lifestyle and friendships made over the years.

I do not vote for my rep or sen to go make friends. That is the problem. Term limits will be 1st on the agenda at the Convention of States to be held soon.

Making friends is pretty much the name of the game as a lawmaker. Issa has actually authored 15 bills that became law. That's a very strong record for a member of Congress...

It has for a long time. District shopping has been around for an absurd amount of time.

My congressman, Brandon Gill, moved to Texas from DC to run for the seat being open from the retirement of Rep. Micheal Burgess.

Issa seemed to be rather effective during his time in Congress. I don’t know much about him personally however. Good guy? DC poon hound? No idea

Issa hates government yet loves to work in government.

He's filthy rich and 72 years old.

Retire already.
