Sorry, Charlie (NY Post responds to tax-cheat Rangel's lashing out)

Sorry, Charlie
Last Updated: 2:19 AM, September 15, 2009

Rep. Charlie Rangel is upset at The Post's reports of his various trans gressions. So here's a word of advice: Stop committing them, Congressman.

Rangel lashed out at The Post last weekend for its role in exposing his shady finances, failure to pay taxes, dubious fund-raising, illegal use of a House garage and on and on.

"I think it's totally unfair for the New York Post to send investigators to my family's home," he huffed.

Obviously, he's miffed -- for starters -- by the paper's pictures and stories of his secret Caribbean rental property, which he failed to disclose to Congress and on which he failed to pay taxes.

But The Post's reporting has proved 100 percent accurate -- buttressed, in fact, by reports from other news outlets.

There have also been reports about his countless other schemes: his four rent-stabilized apartments, for instance, and his apparent pay-to-play deal involving a City College center named for him.

"I want to maintain the good name, honesty and integrity that I've enjoyed for over 50 years," Rangel added.

Fine. Then start living up to that goal.

So the House refuses to sanction Rangel despite evidence of his misdeeds, yet they want to admonish Joe Wilson for merely speaking out during Obama’s speech. No wonder polls show people have no confidence in Congress.

What a sick joke—on us. Rangel has less honesty and integrity than a thieving crack whore.

Say what you will about Patrick Fitzgerald (yes HIM), but if HE was the US Attorney covering Harlem, Cadillac Charlie would be in shackles by now.

And if 'Barry' fires him the feces will hit the fan in Chicago! (So take that as a hint Rahm)

Lately, Old Nasty is looking all of her 68 years. I guess there's only so much botox you can inject into your face.

Seriously, the woman should be checked into a Psych Ward. I am convinced she is heading for a breakdown.

Hey, he’s a black man and the New York Post is owned by a white man. It just ain’t fair. It’s racism.
