VISTA — An estimated $100,000 worth of jewelry was stolen from Rep. Darrell Issa’s home in Vista last week, according to the Sheriff’s Department.
Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Vista — AP Deputies responded on Nov. 29 to a burglary call at the Republican congressman’s house in the city’s upscale Shadowridge neighborhood, Sheriff’s Department records show. The incident occurred between 6:40 p.m. and 7:20 p.m. that day.
More than 50 pieces of jewelry were stolen, including watches, earrings, rings and bracelets, according to department records.

Expect more if you keep up with the investigations Rep. Issa.....I predict there will be an “accidental” fire at your home if you try and question Obama. Be very Carefull!
In addition to a laptop, some documents, and some other stuff...
$100k in jewelry? I hope they were in a safe. If not, we just discovered the guy is an idiot.
“In addition to a laptop, some documents, and some other stuff...”
bingo.
Most robberies take about 5-10 minutes.
For a criminal to find $100,000 worth of jewelry, it would have had to be in a fairly open space, and easy to find.
It definitely wasn’t secured, wherever it was.
$100K in jewelry is just the costume junk he leaves out and he and his wife would wear on a daily basis. His watch is probably worth more than a new car. It is the contents of the laptop that may be the most valuable item.
So, congressmen make enough money to buy 100k worth of jewelry?
How?
Is there some actual point in having a job outside of government?
So, I’m stuck here listening to these kings of government telling me we have too much money and they need more!?!?!?!?
THIS IS A NATION OF FOOLS!
Rep Issa is not in the same league as the crooks you deal with. He is worth hundreds of millions. $100,000 to him is like $100 to you and me. Not worth worrying about security. Besides he is probably fully insured.
I don’t see Issa telling Obama or Boehner to shut the **** up at all.
You know, putting Issa aside because I don’t know how he made his money, I am getting really sick of these richer than God government people telling the rest of us that we have to do with less and they need more, more, more, more, more.
Maybe I’ll think about paying more after they have forfeited all of their ridiculous wealth to pay off the debt that they created and keep growing day after day.
And on top of all their wealth we pay for their pension, vacations, cadillac medical care...
*SPITS*
I think America is being played for the sucker.
Please stop making knee jerk statements. Darrel Issa was a successful businessman first. He is worth hundreds of million dollars. Politics is his end game.
Brainless,too?
I guess we are just as big idiots!!
My wife has that much and we don’t have a safe.
“I don’t know how he made his money”
He invented a car alarm and ran the car alarm business long before he ran for Congress.
Yeah, I think they buried the lead.
Look at it from a different perspective, you will see another amazing coincidence.
Last time I checked, about two thirds of the congress folks are lawyers. Talk about a largely ignored fact. It explains a whole freaking lot.
The major disconnect from the rest of the country, for one.
What I see is a bunch of rich guys successfully closing the door on the rest of us.
As I said to the other person.
What I see is a bunch of rich guys closing the door on the rest of us.
They got theirs, we will never get ours.
You call that brainless if you want, I’ll call it the reality of the situation.
