There is an entire subculture nurtured by the Democrats and spineless RINOs who truly believe the rules should not apply to their members,and that they deserve free rides at the expense of “whitey”.

So, because there are arguably bigger scumbags in Congress you kind of feel sorry for this one? I do not. If you or I did the same thing he did, we would be facing much greater consequences than a sternly worded note. BTW, he doesn’t act like he is very ashamed to me.

Wallow alone, or at least without me.

You’ll be missed, troll.

They view Rangel as having stuck it to the White man, they could care less that he stuck it to them too.

Old Charlie is smart he knows what it takes to get black votes.Just keep screaming about how they picked on him and he beat “The man”.

Next we will have standing ovations for Maxine and Eddie Bernice Johnson.

Certainly there were blacks who believed OJ was guilty and wanted to see him convicted. Then there were those who knew he was guilty and STILL wanted him to get off (in the name of killa-cracker “social justice”).

Well and truly stated ... sadly.

I feel kind of sorry for Congressman Rangel. War hero, Purple Heart, Bronze Star, rose above his station, Way and Means Chairman

Did you somehow miss my post 29?

Rangel is in bed with communist groups loyal to North Korea! He is also best friends with Fidel Castro!

Rhetorical question:
Why is it that a group of Americans would applaud corruption and crime? I may be stupid but I just don't get it. Are we on the same planet?

Why is it that a group of Americans would applaud corruption and crime?

Some people just want to "Stick it to The Man." And politicians have taken advantage of people with this mindset since the dawn of civilization.

If any of Charlie’s black constituents in Harlem had not paid taxes for 12 years, they would not have gotten off with a verbal admonishment, either.

Uh .. They Haven't.

[calex59]

Shows you how stupid his constituents are. He steals them blind and they applaud him for it.

[boomop1]

Well OK newbie.

[riri]

I bet you he's not in the top 75%.

Probably right. He was an easy mark. Eighty years old and nearing his expiration date. Put his face on corruption and let the younger guys keep on keeping on.
