The Right Way to Address Charles Rangel's Scandals
Reader Comments
Tax Fraud Politics and inappropriate use of tax payer money.
FIRE_FIRE FIRE and strip these tax/ kick back political people and the Sanford and Ensign that use tax money for play, when caught I will pay back what a deal, You go rob a bank and get caught do you say I was just kidding Here I Will Pay you back and they let you go? Strip these people of their wealth, put them at the level they have put the everyday worker. You do not have to put them in jail but having them work for min. wage will cure the crooks. How long is it going to take everyone to stop accepting the slap in the face to the American people????
thank you
Is there any way to remove myself as a top commentator? That would be the icing on the cake.
Rangel
What a crook! I agree with a previous post - if a white guy attends a white only church he's a racist - Nobama attends a racist/socialist church and gets elected to the highest office in the free world. The double standard is in full force. We're all headed for deep trouble. Watch the Planet of the Apes - it's now our future. A once dominated race is now in charge and will destroy our coubtry. Rangel, Nobama, Waters, conyers etc will lead the charge.
So much ignorance, so little time
Let me just correct some of the ...erm... "educated citizens" here.
First, try comprehending the article before raising objections. The author is not "attacking small donors" as many commenters here complain. He is instead making the obvious point that if you give thirty 100$ donations, It doesn't make you a 'small donor' just because you packaged it differently... and that if you take that factor into account, then you see that Obama's funding advantage was coming from big spenders.
The separate issue of the Obama campaign purposefully disabling certain basic security systems on his website so that no useful information can be reported and therefore no irregularities can be detected is also a valid issue.
This is just... sad
> I do not think it is true that Barack Obama proposed raising the corporate income tax rate.
And this explains why Obama won. Not even his supporters have the least clue what the man actually proposed, because they relied on the MSM.
You forgot the Free Parking
He parked his car un the Senate parking garage for a few years and paid no parking nor state property taxes during that period...or so I recall my newspaper telling me.
The law is for everyone. All are equal before the law. The enforcement on the other hand is maleable
Two Legs Bad
relatively short story about the extensive financial shenanigans of a leading Democrat still manages to fit two shots at the Republicans.
This is because as all journalists know, Republicans are bad, Democrats are good. Republicans had a 'culture of corruption' in 2006, Democrats have William Jefferson still not tried for 90 grand in his freezer and Rangel who has more scandals than I can remember. But Republicans bad, Democrats good.
Two Legs Bad, Four Legs Good
Corporate tax
I do not think it is true that Barack Obama proposed raising the corporate income tax rate. I admit, I lack the energy to prove it up, but I thought he had proposed cutting the corporate rate, but also eliminating certain loopholes and subsidies.
nothing to see here
I have news for everyone. Rangel will get away with this. If a white man goes to a white supremacist church guess what? HE'S A RACIST! If a black man does it, he gets elected president. Rangel will get away with this and even if he does some how some way get prosecuted his voters will simply vote him back in and he will end up as chairman of the same committee in a few years. The media are complicit in all this and it's the reason Barack Hussein Obama is our president when that racist should never have won the first caucus or primary.
US Media
Covering for Democrats yet again. No matter how corrupt a Democrat, there is always a Republican to blame.
Tell me, will any of you sycophants turn into journalists? Or is the media a wholly-owned arm of the Democrats?
