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 they didn’t your in Congress are you that stupid it was the Democratic party. No they can’t get any thing done they don’t even know what they stand for
SORRY RANGEL, READ YOUR HISTORY BOOK. THE DEOCRAPS CREATED THE KKK.
What an idiotic statement. Certainly doesn’t know American history. Typical intelligence of a Democrat, zero.
There are definitely more & more IDIOTS than ever before.
Ignorant moron
How could they twist something the they have no idea what it is. The truth totally is unknown to them.
I’m sorry you are wrong, it was the democrats that started the KKK, it was a democrat that started segregation in the MILITARY, it was brought on by president Wilson….so learn your history Charlie
Wrong butt Hole, it was DEMOCRATS.
Apparently Rangel doesn’t know his history but then again the majority of them up in Congress don’t either.
Just proves liberals are morons. Democrats created the Ku Klux Klan!
