Charlie Rangel has become the gift that keeps on giving. Between cheating on on his taxes, hiding income or giving campaign donations to the members of the ethics committee investigating him, the NY Democrat has brand new scandal arise on what seems to be a daily basis.
Now it seems as if the Congressman is adding fool to his resume. He has decided to become the liberal equivalent of a birther---a Racer, someone that believes anyone who disagrees with Barack Obama is a racist.
Last night at a town hall in Washington Heights Rangel said that "bias" and "prejudice" toward Obama are fueling opposition to health-care reform. Gee Whiz I guess it has nothing to do with the fact that the bill is a frightening intrusion in all of our lives, and that's just a start.
"Some Americans have not gotten over the fact that Obama is president of the United States. They go to sleep wondering, 'How did this happen?' " Rangel (D-Manhattan) said Tuesday.

We have reached total collapse of any semblance of ethics in Washington.
Charles Rangel has never been taken seriously.
The more they shout racism, the more ignorant and foolish they all look. It really crystallizes the fact the the Congressional Black Caucus has no desire other than to help their black constituents while the rest of us and the rest of the country can go to hell. They are racist and race nationalists and traitors to the US.
The left is used to immediately silencing any and all opposition by playing the race card. Leftists are STUNNED that this cynical, fraudulent tactic is no longer working.
Rangel has always been a fool!
We have reached total collapse of any semblance of ethics in Washington.
Time for a citizen's arrest.
Obviously, many brain-dead liberal voters would disagree!
How did we get to the point where this piece of human debris can hold office?
Oops, I think I answered my question in the first sentence.
Maybe true, but he has a position of great power, he is a brother, and is most probably getting support from The White Crib. You had better be more respectful.
How long has this idiot been under investigation?
How is Pelosi's cleaning out of the culture of corruption coming along?
Is it true that Pelosi will allow him to retain his exalted position.
How's the Hopey Changey grabbing you now?
Define "investigation". I think what is going on is lip service to appease the unwashed masses.

Hmmm... obviously not too good, or she would have "cleaned" herself out of a job long ago.

Of course. There are different rules for Democrats (ruling aristocracy don't you know).

I pose that question to every brain-dead liberal I know that voted for B-HO. They don't have much to say anymore.
Charlie Rangel Goes From Tax Cheat to FOOL JAIL
But...but...but... I don’t respect fools or tax cheats.
Not the ones who get caught, but how many DON’T get caught?
My guess is that if 10% get caught, then 90% are getting away with it.
The Perp walk will be fun!!!
