Total Buzz hack reporter Martin Wisckol, who shills for the lame Red County and Liberal OC blogs, attacked State Senator Lou Correa today, in an article about how much money our state legislators spent on their air travel, over the past two years.
Wisckol specifically called out Correa for his travel – but the reason Correa travels so much is that he, unlike Assemblyman Van Tran (a Wisckol favorite) actually lives here in Orange County, specifically in Santa Ana. And it should be noted that Correa, unlike Republican State Senators Dick Ackerman and Tom Harman, spent zero on out of state travel.
The real scandal is that Tran still spent over $20,000 on air travel even though he doesn’t live here in Orange County! Leave it to the Trannie Wisckol to forget to mention that little detail.

Assemblyman Jose Solorio spent about as much as Correa did, just over $24,000, on air travel, but he too actually lives here in Orange County. That means neither Correa nor Solorio collect the per diem that liars like Tran do. Tran alleges that he lives in Westminster, and collects per diem payments, even though he actually lives in West Saramento.
Wisckol is brushing off the fact that some bloggers (us) claim he is a repuglican tool. We’re conspiratorialists.
Wisckol blogged on my ouster from Red/Mauve/Meg County – but never posted squat when it was found out that Hanlon got bought.
Never returned an email – it makes me wonder about what you guys are claiming about him.
Sgt. York,
Tony is right. Wisckol is a tool. I have no respect for him at all. He ought to be ashamed of himself.
Well, if this is going to be his gambit, we will enjoy kicking his tail here with great regularity.
Art, C’mon Dude! Stop busting people’s chops just because you don’t like them; it takes away from the other good stuff you dig up and post!
Van Tran has two residences – everybody knows that. The one in Sacramento was actually purchased by his wife and her family BEFORE they ever got together. Are you smarter than a fifth grader? Because a fifth grader could figure that out simply by looking at public records – LOL.
Anyone who knows anything about the Vietnamese culture knows the eldest has the responsibility to look after the parents and makes sure the rest of the family does so as well. Tragically, Tran’s older brother died some years ago so instead of buying his own house here, he actually resides with his parents when he’s in the District. Art, being of Mexican decent you should know this is a big thing as Mexican culture has similar values regarding their parents. If you didn’t know this about Tran, you do now.
Also, Tran goes home every night to either his wife and children or his parents – unlike most of the Assembly and Senate who are busy carousing with lobbyists and their cute hookers. You will never find him out and about like most of the men up there. Does he at least get a gold star from you for that? LOL.
My final point is this: Jose Solorio spent quite a bit more than Van Tran has on travel yet there is absolutely no mention of that fact in your post and he is actually your Assemblyman! What’s up with that? Are you giving your homeboy a pass?
soothsayer,
I did mention Solorio. He lives here in the district.
If Tran is so concerned about his parents, why not move them to Sacramento? The answer, then he would not get paid per diem.
He is a crook as is his wife, who was indicted for fraud.
Tran is at home with his wife or parents? What about those times he’s out drinking with his employees and fleeing the scene of the accident then showing up at the scene with alcohol on his breath?
