I’d bet that Rangle made a back door deal to already step down, thus allowing the dems to pile on him to look honest.

He will step down and keep his pension and all his perks. He is getting up in the age.

Rangel resigned last week, its just been kept secret I’m sure.

This allows him to keep his perks, and his pension, he gets a lobbyist job or ambassador spot, and the dems get to use him as a whipping boy.

This as Rahm all over it, I’m from Chicago I know how these guys operate.

This will prove they are “against the culture of corruption” and that they are not starting a race war. Why they are going after a black man!!

This was orchestrated. Watch the dems pile on him as instructed by the white house, especially those in contested seats.

Kabuki Theater at its finest.

Recall is the best solution for the obscene arrogance on display here.

It sounds like Russert is not a chip off the old block. It sounds like he’s a more honest newsman than his dad and has a keener nose for it.

Couldn’t he get a better gig than MSNBC?

Anyway, ol’ Charlie thought he was gonna get softballs and instead got a couple of change-ups.

and he couldn't believe that NBC was asking a tough question of a corrupt Dem! Keep fighting Charlie. Don't let them force you out without a big fight. Name names!

imho - Rangel is being thrown under the bus intentionally by order of the Ruling Class. The Libs know they need to make a good show to the independent voters if they want to hang on to majority rule in Congress come November. Russert is just following orders like his father.

As was said long ago, to the effect that once people can vote for money to be given to them, Democracy is gone and so is the Republic.

With nearly an even split now between those who make their own way, and earn it, and those that live off the backs of others via handouts, we cannot survive much longer in this mode.

4th generation welfare is the result of decades of social engineering, and businesses who lobby for illegals to be allowed free rides, so they can use them as employees at low wages and don't have to pay benefits (the Taxpayers carry the medical, tax, and education cost burdens. That's the illegal immigration problem in a nutshell, where politicians look the other way to keep the corporate/business donations coming, so the low-pay workforce can be had.

He is probably Left leaning like his daddy.....

but like his daddy, I hope he is an honest, fair, left-leaning journalist....

If all journalist were like Tim, I would not feel as bad about having liberals running most news rooms(I mean it would still suck, but not as bad).

Agreed, and there are certainly “Two Americas” when it comes to our legal system regarding politicians and the people.

I am afraid you are so right. you just said it all and put it together better than I could.

Public Education and the media finished off those who still work, yet don’t have a clue or are soooo guilty of those who are “entitled.”

Maybe Luke takes after Big Russ, his granddad. He was a truck driver from Buffalo. I don’t know his political persuasion but it couldn’t have been far left

Maybe Luke can get interviewed on either Leno or litterman. Leno would make fun of him ( what were you thinking!!) and litterman being all serious saying something lame like he'd like to see him interview Gov. Palin

I guess respect equals Democrat bias.

Rangel: Well, you're young; I guess you do need to make a name for yourself.

True that. Luke is trying to get known, then he'll revert to being a DNC shill, just like Daddy.

Rangel has become an embarrassment for the ruling class therefore he is to be disposed of.
