The infamous Gary Miller video has surfaced…in a DCCC online ad.

Brian: As you may know, Gary Miller, who went unchallenged in 2006, has seen some heat for this real estate transaction where he was supposedly “forced to sell” his property.  He is forced to do land deals (for land that he can increase the value of by pushing for legislation in Congress) because he’s poor:

Miller, a fifth-term Republican representing conservative inland Southern California, said in an interview that he had put his real estate investment activities on hold upon entering politics, only to find that “I was worth less money every year.”(AP 2/23/07)

Poor, poor Miller only makes $165K/year. How does he survive on that? Of course, he should be doing land deals that are affected by his position in Congress!
