(CNN) – Rep. Charlie Rangel, D-New York, is making it known he's not happy with President Obama's recent meddling in the state's 2010 gubernatorial race.

"The whole thing to me was not presidential," Rangel told the New York Daily News over the weekend. "It wasn't good for the president, and it wasn't good for the governor."

The comments came a week after the New York Times reported that administration officials had asked New York Rep. Gregory Meeks to convey to embattled Gov. David Paterson that Obama would prefer he not run for re-election next year.

Rangel attacks Obama.

The Democrats are splitting at the seams.

They couldn’t even get their “public option” out of committee.

This would be a better story if Rangel had said this from a prison cell.

Hey Charlie - Obi Wan Nairobi does not know the first thing about being the President of the USA. He is running for First Citizen of the world. Everything is all about him, all of the time.

Get a grip congress and rein him in.

Getting talked down to by Rangel has got to be a low point for Obama. We may forget but I don't think Obama ever will. Lol!

Rangel- the paramount version of doing things right!

This is just too good.

That he shared with cell mates Chris Dodd and Barney Franks.

exactly my thought, this is a racist comment from Rangel. He only wants to get involved because they are all blacks.

Obama always has to hold the dog away from him on a leash
to keep the dog from peeing on his leg. Think high fire hydrant fido!
