Will Representative Issa (R) really investigate Wall Street?
Issa was on Dylan and I'm wondering if this will be an investigation on the order of a Warren Commission, or 9-11 Commission.
Anybody know if this is a 'dog & pony' whitewash show?
Will Wall Street fraud be investigated by Republicans?

Obama's Eric Holder is stonewalling.

2. Issa is a world class jerk. I find it hard to believe that
he's doing something because it's the right thing to do.

3. Why would he investigate his masters?
He's a corporate stooge just like every other repuke.

5. What are the odds his "investigation" pins blame on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac?
After all, the teabots have been in lockstep trying to blame the banking crisis on Barney Frank.

8. Makes me think Dylan was getting him on record
It'll bee a good source for campaign ads against Issa I'm thinking.

7. I doubt it
Bonus trivia question:

Q: Who is the richest member of the US House of Representatives?

A: Darryl Issa

9. NO
He is NOT investigating Wall St. Issa has decided to go after individuals that he deems received "sweetheart deals," i.e. loans with better terms, rates and conditions than other people got.
THIS IS A CROCK.
Loan fees are negotiable, and fees/interest rates vary based on borrowers credit scores and borrowers negotiating skills.
HELL, even I got A "SWEETHEART DEAL!"
This is a giant waste of time - Issa is nothing but a THUG.
