I'll be damned if Darrell makes the Republican Party the party where people say others are liars.
Darth Issa: My lord, we have a problem. Senator McCain is arguing my liar statement has no merit. He has to be stopped!
Darth Vader: Leave that to me. The Emperor is concerned not of who is reacting but how much you will continue your efforts. Continue as usual.
Now may be a good time for Darrell Issa to shut up and stop calling people like Jay Carney liars. As even someone like John McCain points out, this accusation has no place in Congressional oversight:

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) pushed back Monday on comments by Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), who said that White House press secretary Jay Carney lied about the IRS controversy.
"I never like to use that word," McCain said on CBS' "This Morning." "I think that we should let these investigations take their course, let the facts come out."
It also isn't just McCain in the GOP who is asking for the language to be toned down:

And in an interview with Fox News Radio, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) also distanced himself from Issa’s comments.
“Let’s not make it personal. Jay Carney is not the issue here. He’s the spokesman for the White House,” Graham said, according to the Huffington Post.
The senator also cautioned against assertions that the White House was involved in the scandal.
“I don’t believe this was something thought up in the Cincinnati office, but I have no evidence that goes to the White House,” he said. While he said it was clear that there was a “coordinated effort by some people to silence conservative critics of the president,” he said we don’t yet know how far that effort went.
Here's the original video of Darrell "Darth" Issa calling Jay Carney a "paid liar."
Yeah, calling someone on the opposite side of the political spectrum a "liar" is really productive isn't it? Worked out well for Joe Wilson:
Maybe we should assist John McCain and Lindsay Graham in telling Darrell Issa to put a sock in it by helping the San Diego County Democratic Party in voter registration or anything else it can use to defeat Issa for re-election in 2014 or at least hold his feet to the fire by telling him to do his job:
