1. He's holding a phone?

Taking a picture of the hoards at his gate?

[TheBlackAdder]

24. So he can play it back to other GOPers and mock them in private.

[BumRushDaShow]

42. LOL

[C_U_L8R]

2. Wasn't this the final scene of Frankenstein?

He better hope the mob below doesn't have torches.

[MineralMan]

3. Jump! Jump!

[arthritisR_US]

5. Ha!

[MiniMe]

12. Was going to ask if anybody was yelling that from below.

[MineralMan]

15. Had I been there, I would have yelled that.

I'll bet it would have gotten a big laugh, too.

Sometimes, situations just cry out...

[TheBlackAdder]

26. It reminds me of this Scary Movie scene.

.

[Lotusflower70]

30. Omg!

Lol. That's exactly what I was thinking.

[pangaia]

36. TUESDAY WINNER Mr. Man...

[BlancheSplanchnik]

38. Too bad he didn't have a sudden involuntary muscle spasm at that moment.

Would've done us all a world of good.

[arthritisR_US]

4. Regis are cowards and now all know without a doubt. nt

[luvMIdog]

6. yeah I think he was trying to call a helicopter :P

[GallopingGhost]

7. The angle of that tree branch

is just hilarious.

[kag]

54. Oh my!

I hadn't noticed that at first, but it seriously looks like the tree is giving him a huge middle finger.

Wow! Even the trees hate these GOP idiots.

[GallopingGhost]

57. LOL

They know treeson when they see it in all the branches of our government.

[kag]

59. And...

They're pining for Congresspeople who aren't saps.

(Ugh. I'm not very good at this. )

[GallopingGhost]

60. Are you kidding?

That was great!

[ProudLib72]

8. Quick! Get in there are change the locks!

Bar the door to the roof from inside! He can stay up there till he rots or is replaced (or both).

[unblock]

9. "still no signal! i knew i shouldn't have switched to skylink!"

[GBizzle]

10. He knows his career is over. He barely won re-election in a district Hillary won easily.

This picture reminds me of Romanian dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu, in that final speech he gave, when he realized the crowd had turned against him.

[underpants]

11. Ceaușescu was quite a story

Dec. 21 1989 his last speech. The crowd turns on him 18 minutes in

Dec. 22 1989 stages a pro-rally/march and the revolution crowd takes it over.

Dec. 25 1989 he and his wife are tried in an hour and then shot.

[GBizzle]

13. Yeah it was one of those epic downfalls

In that it only took a matter of days for everything to completely fall apart for him.

A brutal ending for both of them.

[grantcart]

18. somebody photo shopped clothes on him. lol

[sarcasmo]

14. Shocked Issa wasn't flashing the middle finger.

Issa is close to Isis, just saying.

[kimbutgar]

16. I love that it is the guy running against him is posting this pic

Definitely should use it in his ads agains the car thief.

[workinclasszero]

17. It's coming fascist republicans

We are rapidly running out of cake assholes!

[LS_Editor]

28. Yeah we are.

I bet they have awesome cake.

[NBachers]

19. I'd love to see him start filming with his phone and then jump. I'd watch the clip over and over!

[tinrobot]

20. Reminds me of the embassy in Saigon... circa 1975.

Did the helicopter come and rescue him?

[world wide wally]

21. Soooo,,,, That's what the richest man in Congress does on his day off?

[bucolic_frolic]

22. There was the Defenestration of Prague

what is this, Cat Burglar's Escape?

[33taw]

23. Are there photos with both him and the crowd?

[flamingdem]

25. I hope someone brought a sharp pitchfork

for his sleazy ass!

[BigmanPigman]

27. I live in San Diego and Indivisible is really giving him a hard time!

He deserves to be tarred and feathered as far as I'm concerned.

[calimary]

33. His district has been targeted BIGTIME.

Flip SoCal Left, Indivisible here in West L.A., Code Blue, and our Congressman, Ted Lieu, with his own district-flipping campaign.

Darrell has lost his swagger. Indeed he did barely hang on, by a hair, last November, and he knows his neck is on the chopping block. He's been attempting to "sound" more reasonable, accepting of such ideas as an independent prosecutor, trying in his own weasel way to "rehabilitate" himself against a rising tide against him.

Both Issa AND Steve Knight up in northern L.A. county are targeted - BIGTIME. And they know it. And they're nervous. The wind is at Democrats' backs this time.

[Hekate]

43. I love it. Thanks for the good news.

[not fooled]

56. Yep, he's trying to squirm around on his positions

but let us never forget that, when he thought it was politically advantageous, he espoused the most extreme RW garbage. What's the matter, Darrell--don't you really believe all that stuff?

Good to see North SD County waking up and giving this criminal a-hole what he deserves.

Go steal a car or burn down a building, Darrell.

Oh, and after posing on the roof, he called a San Diego Union Tribune writer to lie about the protestors and whine about being treated unfairly. Darrell, exposing facts about you is not unfair treatment.

[LiberalLovinLug]

29. He's getting footage for Fox News

So later there will be an Exclusive! Shocking! ANGRY MOB OF PAID LIBERAL EXTREMISTS THREATEN A US HOUSE REP!

[Wednesdays]

41. That ain't far from the truth. n/t

[Lotusflower70]

31. Lol

Is he taking pictures of the constituents? He is absolutely pathetic.

[Thomas Hurt]

32. Tsk, Tsk, what self-respecting fascist doesn't have a bunker and secret escape tunnel...

[Bengus81]

34. Oh crap,those pesky voters again!

Geezeee,remember the good ole' days when you Pugs held town halls and all you had to do was BASH Obama for an hour or so then tell everyone good night?? Them days are longggggg gone boys.

[SunSeeker]

35. Bwaaahahahahaha!

[Sunlei]

37. Why are Rs afraid to even speak to the public and answer questions ONLINE SAFE FROM BOOS?

[AllaN01Bear]

39. a congressman afraid of his own constituants ? hem.

[Thrill]

40. Coward

[flibbitygiblets]

44. Chris Hayes just covered this

Issa tried to spin it as "no one would meet with me, so I just went up to the roof to take a picture". ...Of the crowd that showed up at his office NOT to meet with him? F-ing LIAR.



Go crawl back under the rock you squirmed out from, you cowardly snake!

[tiptonic]

45. Stop

No don't stop, go ahead and jump.

[mr_lebowski]

46. He'll be on Faux tomorrow talking about how he was told to go up there and get photo of everyone ...

That way, all these people can be identified by FBI facial recognition, then they're all going to be investigated to see how much money Soros paid each and every one of them to show up to harass him ...

Yeah, that's the ticket ...

And Faux-ites won't even stop to consider how friggin' evil that entire idea is, cause, well ... they aren't the ones who were there doing it, and they've been trained like dogs to orally froth at the mention of the word 'Soros'. You just say his name, and the conspiracy you're speaking of ... must be true.

[sarge43]

47. Fitting dialog from the film Dragonheart

"M'lord, the peasants are revolving!"

"They've always been revolving; now they're rebelling."

The poor widdle snowflake. just in case

[Raster]

48. shouldn't that be: "...the peasants are revolting..."??

...unless of course, they are turning in circles...

[sarge43]

55. Yes, but I have my rep as Typo Queen to maintain. n/t

[Raster]

61. Your Majesty...

...long may you rain!

[Demsrule86]

49. Hubs says he is sending the footage to ICE...

God I hope this mental midget is out in 18.

[MagickMuffin]

50. What A Pic . . . . What A PRICK

There I fixed it. But that's what I saw when I first saw the thread title.

[JHan]

51. I must covfefe that he looks ridiculous

[Orsino]

52. Republican Jesus doesn't Rapture, Issa. n/t

[longship]

53. He does rupture, though.

Beware the rupture, is what I always say to these idiots.

[DefenseLawyer]

58. He's scouting out cars to steal

Gotta keep his skills sharp so he can return to his old profession when he loses the next election.
