Rep. Issa makes a fool of himself during Blackwater hearing.

From Crooks and Liars:

Issa: I think you’re exactly right. That in fact, being identified as [artisan Republican appears to have been what all companies do—ahhh—which is in fact operate to do the job they’re doing in a non partisan way and I would hope that this committee and the public takes note that labeling some company as Republican oriented because of family members is inappropriate and I would hope we not do it again. And I yield back back.

Waxman: Well the only one that’s done it is you. Maybe that’s why all the Republicans are defending the company…

Orange Country should be watching their Rep. No we know Issa is already being investigate in many criminal acts so I guess he wants Blackwater to help a brother out.
Blackwater is hosed with the Iraq video tape. Now to say only Republican businesses get contract is interesting. I know the government now only hires Republicans but this is a little much. Why are other people paying taxes?
