Practice What You Screach

By Abdul Hakim-Shabazz

I frankly don’t know which is scarier this video message or the fact that 1st District Republican Congressional candidate Mark Leyva calls himself a Tea Party candidate and he’s filed for bankruptcy.

Just for the record Leyva, filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy about a month before the primaries.   Between 2002 and 2007, Leyva wracked up $131,000 on personal credit cards.  He didn’t start dealing with his creditors until  December 2009.   He hired debt consultants, but ultimately filed for Chapter 7.   And he’s running against Pete Visclosky, of all people.  Go figure.
