And he does not stand alone in that category!
ISSA: You know, Wolf, frankly I cant account for what happens after midnight and all of that partying and revelry and drinking that goes on on New Years Eve at 2:00 in the morning. What I can tell you is they did half of a bill. The half of the bill certainly is going to be popular in the way of holding down taxes but the other half is theres no spending reductions . In other words, $4 trillion will be added to the debt over ten years with this tax cut unless we do some spending cuts to help offset it. Right now the president is still in a spending mood. We need to get him in a savings mood.
BLITZER: I just want to clarify one point, you said it was after the new years and they were partying. Are you suggesting that Mitch McConnell and your fellow Republicans in the Senate they were a little bit drunk when she voted on this last night?
ISSA: Of course not. I was having a little fun with you, Wolf. The fact is, it was after midnight. It was a piece of legislation intended to be passable, not necessarily to be right.

(50,557 posts)I don't want to go through every one of Issa's votes over the past twelve years, but I have this weird feeling that if someone did, he would notice that when Bush was spending money like a drunken sailor Issa voted with him 100 percent of the time.
