Can you believe Rangel? I get beyond shocked sometimes at what some people say. The cops in New York would not know that he was president? They would think he’s just another random black man in the streets? And that they shoot first and ask questions later?????

Let’s do the reversal rule here. What would the reaction be if a white Republican political leader said that Obama needs to watch his back in the Repbulican’s hometown because the cops there might confuse the president with random black men on the street, and that the cops in the Republican’s hometown shoot black men first and ask questions later? Can you imagine the uproar that would follow such comments? Yet Rangel can say this and it’s news for five minutes and then it goes away. Amazing. I never know what the criteria are for how to judge situations.

“I never know what the criteria are for how to judge situations.”

Easy. If it comes out of a liberal’s mouth, it’s all good.

If it comes from a conservative, it’s racist.

See? Simple.

There is truly only a handful, but Rangel is one of those few that keeps the “N” word alive.

The dems would welcome who ever said and embrace them?

AIRC, sometime during the Xlinton years, some NC congressperson (maybe Jesse Helms, but I don’t remember) suggested that Xlinton might want to watch himself if he came to Fort Bragg. The MSM was all over this for better part of a week. Let’s compare the MSM reaction to this comment by Charlie. Bet the reaction won’t approach the stink they made back then.

For some, with age, comes wisdom.

with others..

Wellllll,

If one look at a great many that hold public offices in
New York, one has to wonder why? but then, I’m here in California where the Gub thinks Obama is groovy... and tho he hasn’t said it yet publicly, I’m sure he thinks Sotomayor is Hot Hot Hot too!
