The vote comes the same day reports emerged that the New York Democrat funneled a $3 million earmark -- included in the massive Defense Appropriations Bill -- to City College to fund research on materials used to protect Army vehicles from attack.

Pelosi's swamp widens

[umgud]

Imagine that.

[PennsylvaniaMom]

And deepens.

[hosepipe]

Forget Rangel.. when does Sandy Berger do the perp walk for Espionage.. and Sedition..

[Frantzie]

The totally corrupt Democrat Party who gave us Obama.

[doug from upland]

The so-called “Ethics” committee consists of three Republicans and three DemodRATS. They will obviously do nothing.

[Doogle]

who Rangel contributed too heavily

[freekitty]

We don’t need people that are unwilling the recognize the failures of their own sitting in Congress.

[scottdeus12]

Folks, we really REALLY need to start all over.

This will only get worse.

[Wintson Wolfe]

Imagine that.

[RebelTXRose]

I guess her dictionary doesn’t really explain “integrity” OR “honesty” OR “ethical” the way most other dictionaries explain it...

"Pay your taxes or step down"

Funny...when one us 'little people' don't pay our taxes we go to jail, and even if we do, we have to prove to the government that we didn't cheat. This guy flagrantly breaks the law, and sits in Congress. Beyond outrageous.

[b4its2late]

Wow, I’m SO SHOCKED....... yeah, right.

[americanophile]

The GOP should be jamming this quote down her throat...but then it would have to be a GOP with conviction, muscle and the ability to effectively communicate...I dream.

[scottdeus12]

from the article: “A representative from Rangel’s office on Wednesday blasted the resolution as a “highly partisan effort.””

Unreal. Just unreal. This guy broke the law...period.

[liberty_lvr]

I guess funneling money to the college as an earmark has some ethical implications that I just don't see...

But can't they find somethng a little more damning on this scumbag besides funneling money from a defense appropriations bill to help the Army? Jeez, talk about picking your battles...

The democrap communist party loves graft and corruption.

The freaking swamp has never been so full.

[GI Joe Fan]

Stories like these make me wonder just how far down the democrats will land into the depths of hell.

Criminals, all.

[LeonardFMason]

Conservatives ATTACK! Don’t let this issue fade. Bring it up time and time again in the press, on the floor of the House, everywhere.

[Doogle]

..send that to your RAT Rep in your state in an email

[Constitution Day]

Great idea. My representative is G.K. Butterfield. (D, NC-1)

[Doogle]

here here....BLUE DOG RATS should get their emails loaded

[CPT Clay]

The biggest outrage is that Rangel “forgot” to pay taxes on more income than most FReepers will earn in a lifetime.

What an outrage!!!!

[Doogle]

..in those BIG BLOCK RED LETTERS

[Spok]

Perfect. Make the Democrats go on record supporting corruption. It’s a baby step for the GOP, but a good one nonetheless.

[Doogle]

...also a few to Pelosi’s email...*grins*

From Merriam-Webster:

LIE
Function: noun
1: an assertion of something known or believed by the speaker to be untrue with intent to deceive

[a fool in paradise]

Tom DeLay’s case has still not be brought to trial by the crooked Democrat prosecutors.

[Constitution Day]

Hoo boy. Damn right I’m going to send Butterfield an e-mail. He didn’t vote against the resolution, but he voted PRESENT!

What a puss-cake. Profiles in leadership, indeed!

The totally corrupt Democrat Party who gave us Obama.

It makes my blood boil every time I think about the RAT 2006 campaign against THE PARTY OF CORRRUPTION that helped them take over Congress, with Piglosi leading the charge. The Jurassic media is clearly an arm of the DNC.
