GOP Rep. Issa: Russert Would Have Supported Offshore Drilling

By Eric on June 18, 2008

California Republican Wanker Congressman Darrell Issa couldn’t even wait for Tim Russert to be put in the ground before exploiting his death for political gain:

“I think Tim Russert would have been just the right guy to hold people accountable who would talk about the 68 million acres that are ‘inactive’ when in fact 41 million are under current lease and use and are producing millions of barrels of natural gas and oil a day,” Issa said on the House floor.

“I’m going to miss Tim Russert because this debate is too important not to have a fact oriented, unbiased moderator who can in fact bring to bear the truth that we need to have.”

Stay classy, Darrell.
