You know, if Mr. Rangel shot an old lady in front of the Apollo Theatre, he wouldn’t go to jail.

As long as he’s in office, and representing Harlem, he’s safe.

Unless, of course, the GOP retakes the House in 2010 or 2012.

Man this guy has no boundaries.....non reporting of income for years, bribes to committee members, and probably a lot more——good thing he is not a Republican-—jail time.

Seems to me this is the problem with the whole government: Can’t properly “out” the President as he slides us towards fascism because every one is dirty, comfy and cowardly.

The whole “two party system” isn’t working when it’s really one big party being catered by “Lunches a la Lobbiests” and serving perks under glass with all the “tax-payer-paid cash-ahol drinks” the polits can gurgle down their lie-holes.

It’s well past time for REAL change.

Wake up and act. Make the effort to be in DC on the 12th!

Looks like those 3 Dems accepted bribes then. I wonder how many Dems Rangel is going to take down with him.

We need a top ten most wanted politican list:

I nominate Rangel- taxes, Pelosi for sloughing minimum wage exemptions to her husband's overseas company, Murtha (not enough speace, Reid-real estate, Dodd-Mortgage fraud and bribe taking, Obama-unamerican socialist, 3/4ths of the cabinet

Getting tired, someone pick it up.

I’d like to believe that too, but I remember how gutless they were the last time we put them in power.

Yup. But you must admit, it’s better than current majority.

‘Course, that’s like saying “you know, for a large person, you don’t sweat much.”

This just keeps going deeper. But nothing will be done with the dems in control unless they decide to make him an example, but I doubt that.

“Isn’t that called bribery ?”

No, only when an (R) is after your name is it bribery...

Moreover, we would actually vote him out of office.

That’s the problem when your enemy has no ethics and no morals.

One ringy dingy, two ringy dingy.

Hello, IRS Fraud Division.

Yes, who’s calling?

A concerned citizen with a tip. I know three men who have openly admitted to taking bribes and not reporting it as income.

WHAT, NO TAXES PAID. WHO ARE THEY? WHERE ARE THEY?

Oh well, why didn’t you say so. Nothing to do, move along. It’s okay.
