Heads Up: House Sources Say Ken Calvert Lied To Caucus
By Erick Posted in GOPWar — Comments (3) / Email this page » / Leave a comment »
House sources tell me that, when Calvert met with the House caucus about his appointment, he said he was not being investigated.
That's flat out not true.
News reports from California show that the Riverside County Grand Jury sought records relating to a 4 acre sale of property to Ken Calvert last year by the Jurupa Community Services District.
The district acquired the land in the 1970s for flood control and a park. The park was never built.
The land in Mira Loma, in northwest Riverside County, also was sold without first notifying other public agencies and was based on an outdated appraisal, The Press-Enterprise found last year. The handling of that deal was a factor in last year's ouster of the district's general manager.
The Grand Jury has not issued its report yet and is apparently still looking into the matter.

CongressCritter™: Never have so few felt like they were owed so much by so many for so little.
use it. They can back down on the Calvert appropriations seat without loosing face.
Socialism doesn't work. It looks nice on paper, but it's been tried and it's failed miserably every time (usually accompanied by widespread death and suffering).
