Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Pasadena) has been silent on the IndyMac Bank matter.
Today, IndyMac Bank CEO and Chairman Michael W. Perry issued devestating statement relative to the financial condition of the bank.
IndyMac Report
Layoffs are massive: reduction of 7,200 to 3,400 employees.
It would be nice if the Congressman would be attentive to his constituency and make some kind of statement. It is just deafening that Rep. Schiff does nothing!
Yes, Schiff does nothing, that is his style now with anything having to do with Obama. He is a big organizer and fundraiser for Obama, pat of his Jewish coalition, enforsed him, because he is a superdelegate. Which was against the will of his contituents who went overwhelmingly for Clinton. Donna Brazile, one of the leaders in the DNC said SDs should go for the candidate who won in their district, that would be Clinton.
Is anyone challenging his seat in Congress this year, because I'm ready to vote Schiff out.
Even though I may disagree with him politically, the guy's mother just passed away. He buried her on Sunday. Give him few days to recoup.
The REAL PROBLEM is Schiff's travel to places like Armenia, Azerbaijan, Afghanistan, Las Vegas and Pakistan while the trouble was brewing. That's what we have a State Department for! Check out his website if you care about his nifty travel photos. Personally, I'm not a fan of such slideshows. Particularly when they reveal absolute negligence.
Schumer's comments have triggered a worse case scenario for the local economy with lots of people with similar backgrounds looking for work at the same time, lots of families losing their homes in a concentrated geographic region.
Pasadena is considered a "safe district" for Adam Schiff so is free to pursue his personal interest--international affairs and the history of the Ottoman Empire.
