"His votes against gun control earned him an "A" rating last year from the National Rifle Assn. but Issa vowed Saturday to support renewal of the federal assault-weapons ban this year. "If we were to undo it, it would simply make it more of a failure," he said.

Say what? The assault weapons ban is a failure, but if congress were to "undo" it, it would be MORE of a failure? Does that make any kind of sense to anyone?

What really frosted my ass was him saying that he would agree to a tax hike if "the people wanted it." Sure, the multi-millionaire who already has his wealth doesn't mind raising taxes a little. Sounds a lot like Mayor Taxberg in New York.
