NEW YORK (CBS) ― Already under fire for his tax troubles, Manhattan Congressman Charles Rangel really put his foot in his mouth on Friday.
In a CBS 2 HD exclusive interview Rep. Rangel called Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin "disabled."
The question was simple. Why are the Democrats so afraid of Palin and her popularity.
The answer was astonishing.
"You got to be kind to the disabled," Rangel said.
That's right. The charman of the powerful House Ways & Means Committee called Palin disabled -- even when CBS 2 HD called him on it.
CBS 2 HD: "You got to be kind to the disabled???"
Rangel: "She's disabled."
"There is no question about politically it's a nightmare to think that a person's foreign policy is based on their ability to look at Russia from where they live."
Republicans think Rangel's comments are insulting as well as shocking.
"Charlie Rangel's comments are clearly disgraceful," Rep. Peter King, R-Long Island, said. "This is just another liberal Democrat who can't accept an independent woman running for president."
King, who is co-chair of the McCain-Palin campaign in New York, watched Rangel's comments with CBS 2 HD. He was particularly upset because Palin's 4-month-old son, Trig, is disabled. He has Down's syndrome.
"We should be sensitive to her or any woman who has a child or family member who has any afflciiton at all," King said. "And so to use the word disabled in the conetxt of a female candidate for vice president who has a child who is disabled really is wrong. Charlie owes her and the entire disbale community and appology."
Advocates for the disabled are also upset.
((sot michael imperiale 135028) "It makes me feel as if he's trying to put her down, trying to say she's not good for the presidency or the vice presidency," Michael Imperiale said.
"A disabled president ran this country. He was didabled. His name was Roosevelt."
a spokesman for the McCain-Palin campaign also piled on, saying that this kind of rhetoric has no place in politics.
The Friends mentioned it this morning.
I just saw this video on Fox.
WOW!! What an idiot!
LOL!
Just what does he mean by that? I’m guessing he means mentally disabled. Typical democrat, when they can’t attack their opponents’ ideas, they attack their opponents personally. The really nervie thing about this comment is that she has a son with down’s syndrome.
It didn’t take me long to go DUmpster diving and find that some DUmmies giving him pats on the back:

I’m praying this happens November 4th and beyond. OMG.
The only mental debility here is by the same stupid idiots that keep putting this jackass Charlie Rangel back into office to leech off of them like the cyst he is.

** I printed this picture yesterday and put it on a coat hanger near the road.
It was torn down within a half hour when I drove by later.
I should do it again, camp out with a camcorder, and put it on YouTube.
It is a picture that literally drives Obama worshippers, feminists, and liberals nuts. **

I like this one I found a while back, too:
I understand how it can come on so suddenly. These are people who's whole lives have been devoted to being angry, a victim, and can't handle responsibility. Gov. Palin is everything they aren't.
Gov. Palin is successful at work, happy, enjoys her responsibilities as Gov. and mother, is not a man hater and if she succeeds as VP she destroys the mythology of feminism without saying a word.
When I heard him, I pictured Elmer Fudd. I’ll have a YouTube up soon mocking him as Elmer Fudd.
Well, Charlie good going. You’ve managed to offend another “group”. Name calling, lies and dirty tricks are all that’s left in the dem quiver. Heck, Onada has not even been able to meaningfully turn the Wall Street mess to his advantage. Moreover, if there is any good coming out it, Onada is part of it right up to his eyeballs. And McCain is calling him on it.
I haven’t heard an intelligent or cogent thought out of Onada, Biden or any dem since Gov. Palin was named VP candidate. Check that, I should acknowledge the good sense of those dems who are publicly jumping off the Onada bandwagon.
Only idiots pat another idiot on the back for being an idiot.
Shocking how many of the "elite" can't tell the difference between reality & a SNL sketch.
Imagine the outrage if a conservative said that about Hilary. Charles Rangel is an utter disgrace.
The man is just irresponsible.
That’s great! I’m stealing that to post on my office door. I work in the People’s Republic of Cambridge, MA. This should rile them almost as much as my Bush-Cheney 2004 campaign shirt
