Darrell Issa's Teeny Weapon

Total Recall
Darrell Issa's Teeny Weapon

by Paul Brennan
Friday 25 July 2003

It was only an "unloaded . . . little, teeny pistol," Congressman Darrell Issa (R-Somewhere south of San Onofre) told the Los Angeles Times earlier this month, hoping to explain away a 1972 weapons conviction. Now the San Francisco Chronicle tells us how unloaded and teeny.

"Issa declined to be interviewed" for the Chronicle's story, and we say he was damn right. Today's dynamic Republican will not answer questions he doesn't like....

But Issa is in the awkward position of declining interviews at the moment he needs the press most.

In that campaign, he'll depend on the media, a media that occasionally insists on dogging facts-like evidence that Issa has habitually lied in his résumé.
