Charlie Rangel is a crook and a cheat. In 2008 he was charged by the House of Representatives Ethics committee, and found guilty on eleven counts, including not reporting rental income and income tax improprieties. He was removed from the Ways and Means committee as a result, which directs how money is spent by the government. But he has been a loud-mouth and a divisive, partisan hack since his earliest days in the House, but it seems that his style and ethics are to the liking of the Democrat party and his New York constituents, and he is the second longest serving member in the House.
Never short on opinions, he suggests that the financial recovery under Barack Obama has not been strong enough or fast enough (true), but his answer is to expand the meme of “social justice” which generally means more welfare, reparations for slavery, and whole host of other giveaways to his African-American supporters. In the video on the next page Rangel also shows how challenged he is with actual U.S. history, and it is clear that many of his positions are founded on ignorance of the facts.
See page 2 for embarrassing Rangel comments:
No the Democrat did.
Not true the liberal damacrats did
Zak Jones kinda stupid statement when you look at the makeup of the democrat party. Theres about 5 times as many minorities as found in the republican party (representatives/senators/etc). Plus the dems put the first african american in the white house. We could say very similar things about women in each party. So are they racist against themselves?

He’s an idiot.
Stupid or a liar,whoops he’s a dem that explains everything.
You Sir are a f–kin lyer.
Elaine Garner Harville no offense but if you look at photographs of each party, you will find the republican party has something like 6 minorities and 5 women. Meanwhile the democrats are fully mixed with nearly 50% minorities and a whole lot more women than 5. And then of course theres the fact that the Dems put the first black man in the white house. So you can claim whatever you want but the majority of people stuck on food stamps are white males. All of this is fact.
once a liar always a liar!
