How long can Democrats stand by Charlie Rangel?

Since the media are in the tank for the Democrats, I'd say quite a long time.

"The House ethics committee expanded a sprawling investigation into Rangel Thursday, digging into allegations stemming from an August restatement of his personal finances, in which he under reported hundreds of thousands of dollars in assets. The ethics committee action – which was unanimous — came a day after House Democrats turned back a Republican attempt to force Rangel from his Ways and Means chairmanship while the investigation, now in its second year, is completed. "

The case against Charlie Rangel

Forty years of tax evasion, misdeeds and contempt. And yet, the Democrats keep covering for him.

Is Charles Rangel a racist?

According to the left, anyone who criticizes Obama is a racist. Does this make Rangel a racist then?

"Rangel: Health bill harder after Obama speech"

Rangel: Health bill harder after Obama speech

Will Obama have Pelosi get rid of him now?

"Ways and Means Chairman Charles Rangel of New York says House Democrats would have to slash subsidies to the poor to get their bill to the $900 billion, 10-year price tag Obama specified.

Rangel also noted that the president didn't mention the new income tax on the wealthy that House Democrats want to use to pay for their bill, favoring a different approach instead. The congressman said "the restrictions that the president has given in his speech as well as the proposed discussions in the Senate has caused us more problems."

Rangel targets NY Post

Selective targeting?

"But where were Rangel's harsh words for the New York Times, Washington Post and Buffalo News, whose editorial writers have called for him to step down as chairman? And why not go after the Times for its expose of his sweetheart apartment deal?"

Why hasn't "I'm going to drain the swamp" Pelosi forced him to step down?

Charles Rangel Must Go

More calls for him to go.

Rep. Charles B. Rangel (D-N.Y.) must step asside

says the Washington Post.

"From all that we've seen thus far, Mr. Rangel has violated that trust continually and seemingly without care."

The Democrats don't care. That's why Pelosi hasn't fired him.

Pelosi will let Rangel hold post

despite latest allegations.

"Allegations"? Rangel has admitted cheating on his taxes for years! If Rangel were a Republican the media would be screaming for his head. Instead, the media covers for their Democrats.

Rangel Failed to Disclose More Income

The New York Times finally notices. Note, it takes the NYT four paragraphs to identify Rangel as a Democrat. If he were a Republican this scandal would be all over the left wing media.

Calls for Rangel to resign

are long over due. If you or I failed to report millions in assests we would be in jail. If Pelosi won't force him to resign then she should go to.

Why isn't Rangel in jail?

If you or I did this we would be in jail.

More here.

It's shameful how the left wing meida cover for him.

Democrat Rangel's multimillion-dollar "oops"

If he were a Republican this scandal would be all over the news. If a regular citizen did this they would be in jail.

"Rep. Charlie Rangel's multimillion-dol lar "oops" this month raises plenty of good questions, but this may be the best: How can Democrats continue to close their eyes to such sleaze?

And, more to the point, this: Will prose cutors follow up on any of it? "

Here's the answer to that question.

Who's the culture of corruption now? You can be forgiven for not having heard of these scandals. The left wing media have been in the tank for the Democrats for a long, long time now.

Culture of Corruption: Obama and His Team

The tax man himself, Charlie Rangel is one of them.

There are so many corrupt Democrats someone should write a book about them. Oh, they already have. That was quick. But to be fair, there are so many it was like shooting fish in a barrel.

More ethics problems for Rangel

More Democrat corruption. What's new. So much for Pelosi draining the swamp.

Democrat Rangel and his tax scandal

continue.

"Rangel in September said he would hire a "forensic accountant" (think: "CSI: Charlie") to untangle a 20-year morass of tax returns and to determine just how much money he's made and how much in unpaid taxes he may still owe.

(Reminder: Rangel's committee writes the nation's tax laws.)

But as The Post's Isabel Vincent reported, two months later Rangel's lawyers claim they can't locate a single qualified firm that hasn't contributed to Rangel's campaigns or has no pending business before Ways & Means.

The same lawyers, incidentally, have already been paid more than $121,000 from Rangel's campaign committee.

Generally, that's a no-no. And though Rangel's staff insists he got a required advance OK from the Federal Elections Commission, the FEC says otherwise: An agency spokeswoman insists that neither Rangel nor anyone representing him even asked for a determination. "

What say you Obama?

Democrat Rangel Calls Palin 'Disabled'

in answer to this question.

The question was simple: Why are the Democrats so afraid of Palin and her popularity?

The answer was astonishing.

"You got to be kind to the disabled," Rangel said.

That's right. The chairman of the powerful House Ways & Means Committee called Palin disabled -- even when CBS 2 HD called him on it.

CBS 2 HD: "You got to be kind to the disabled?"

Rangel: "Yes."

Obviously Palin is no disabled but why are Democrats afraid of disabled people?

AIG gave $10 million to Democart Rangel

Yes, $10 million!!!

"The Post reported last year that Rangel sent letters asking for donations for the Charles B. Rangel Center to several potential corporate donors with business before his committee.

Last year, Rangel's office provided The Post with a list of some of the donations he had already helped secure for the project, which included $10 million from AIG; $500,000 from the Verizon Foundation; and $1 million from Eugene Isenberg, CEO of energy firm Nabors Industries. "

$10 million!!
