Just a reminder about our friend Issa. This article was posted in Politico in November 2010. At this time Issa had no idea what he would investigate only that he wanted to investigate as he was on a witch hunt from the beginning. Below you will also find some other links that you may wish to review about our friend Issa and his questionable past.

California Rep. Darrell Issa plans to greatly expand the scope of federal oversight upon his likely election to chair the oversight committee in the new Congress, he told Politico in an interview.

 

 

 

 

"I want seven hearings a week, times 40 weeks," Issa said.

 

 

 

Issa's election to chair the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform would herald a significant increase in the committee's activity, and not just from the past two years. California Rep. Henry Waxman, the committee's Democratic chair during the final two years of the Bush administration, held 203 hearings over the course of two years. With a goal of about 280 hearings each year, Issa hopes to more than double that.

 

 

 

Politico reports that Issa is looking to create new subcommittees, and has plans to investigate controversial Obama-era initiatives like the federal stimulus package and possibly health care reform, as well as the $700 billion bank bailout passed under President Bush.
