Charlie Rangel Owns Up (Sort of)

The only thing that Rangel - and his peers - can't comprehend is that the laws apply to him. Possibly he believes himself entitled to an employee discount.

With the help of many high ranking liberal democrats,our economy was deliberatly crashed.The reason is obvious,or should be, to help obama steal the presidency.When you can block a bill put before congress in september 2003,that would have stopped f.m./f.m., from destroying our economy,and you fight against it,something's very wrong.Christopher(country wide) dodd,barney(openly gay ) frank,charles(waco)schumer,nancy(im a woman who has absolutely no regrets)polosi,which means she has never made a bad dicision,ever,harry(the war is lost ,the terrorist have won)reid,who believes strongly in nepotism for his sons, not yours.Then they look the american people directly in the eye and say 8 years of George bush and republicans are at fault.Even though it is so easy to look on the internet and check for yourself.According to liberal democrats,lib. hollywood,and the useless lying liberal media the economy helps the dems,the same people who in they're concern for average american people blocked any action needing to be taken,and even said that any suggestion that there is a problem was dead wrong,so quit wasting time on it.Unbelievably,they seem to be rite, the one thing they say all americans want to talk about,the one thing that (how rediculous)makes them look good.As americans,when we spend our hard earned money,on anything,we check it out thoroughly,cars, old and new,the insurance,where we buy gas and other related necessaties for our car.Where our kids will live and go to school,and the people that will be involved in they're life and ours.We check out the food we buy,the clothes we wear,.The movies our kids watch,and when we dont,there is usely a price to be paid that involves more than just money.We check out the church we go to ,we do comparative shopping on everything it cost us to LIVE.Were careful of who we associate with, and even more so of our kids friends.Yet when deciding on who to vote for as the PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA,dont check out they're friends,just trust the liberal democrats.IN MY LITTLE TOWN OF NORTH VERNON,IN.they put two words on there signs, vote democrat,dont check out anything about them ,just trust them,even if you no there is somebody from another party more qualified,vote democrat.When it concerns obama, if they're was nothing to hide,and many things that would make him look good, they would demand that you check him out, thoroughly.This is not the case,so ,obviously there is smething to hide(lie about).Right now ,just a few houses from obama live ayers, ferakan,and the rezco family, minus one.They,(liberals),are convinced that Americans are to dumb to realize that obama, in his intense desire to boost his political carreer,both asked for and gave promises that he wont talk about,why? He actually has executive experiance,but wont talk about it either,why,go on-line and use your wideband,highspeed access to almost infinite imformation and check it out. yourself.

$35,000.00 per year for parking paid for by you and me.

That is 673.00 per day. That is roughly what he was getting for a night's rent in his villa in the Dominican Republic.

I'll give him this: At least he wasn't running a male prostitution business out of one of his apartment buildings.

Too senior Democratic legislators, Ebony Elmer Fudd and Porky Pig.

If you do not believe me about Barney Frank, look it up. He was chastised in Congress for his queerish illegal behavior.

Thomas

Andy,

Did you here the news about Charlie this time? It seems he parks his Mercedes somewhere that costs 35k per year in New York City and it has been getting paid for by guess who? The taxpayers.

I realize that parking is expensive and a hassle in NYC. I saw it on Seinfeld. However, this is not as humorous nor entertaining.

It seems that 50 years of government services demands certain perks. I wonder if his poor constituency has similar bennies. So much for the little guy.

Yo Andrew,

Why does Charlie Rangel's Korean War record and taking a bullet have any bearing on his character when every GD liberal, Barry Obama supporter who refers to John McCain's military record either deems it irrelevant or denigrates him because of it?

The fact that McCain demonstrates humility although he was a Silver Star, Bronze Star and Purple Heart recipient should tell you what kind of man he is. The fact that he was promised a release from the Hanoi Hilton (POW camp) as a North Vietnamese propoaganda ploy and refused to leave ahead of the Americans captured before him is telling. His beatings and torture were intensified because of this.

Democratic Ex-President James Earl Carter made comments that McCain was going to in essence squeeze every ounce of political advantage out of his Vietnam and POW experience. Sounds like a peanut brain to me. Is this how liberal Democrats perceive their war veterans and war heroes who do not share their political proclivities?

I do not like Charlie Rangel because he is a hypocrite, a disingenous politician and a race-baiter. That has nil to do with his military career.

Charles Rangel. I usually say this on Veteran's Day, but Thank you for your service to our country. Sincerely.
