Rangel's NY supporters urge 'no' vote on censure
2010-11-22
Rep. Charlie Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Rangel's
... who became what 20 terms in Congress turns you into ...
supporters in New York's Harlem want members of Congress to stand by him.

A group of local leaders says Rangel has worked hard in his decades-long career to support his community. They're urging other members of the House of Representatives to vote no on a recommendation to censure him.

#8  I'm comfortable with Duke getting his corrupt ass out. I demand the other side hold the same standards

#7  Kink a body out of congress just because he is a criminal?

Just ask Duke Cunningham. Then again, he's a member of the 'Outer Party' not a member of the 'Inner Party' and its exemptions.

#6  --Are you kidding me ?? Charlie won this last election with 80% of the vote.. He is one of them, he 'plays' the system just like all of them.

#5  God Lord. Kink a body out of congress just because he is a criminal?

Why we would have no congress.

Can't have that.

#4  I don't think Charlie should be censored, either. Hanged, maybe, jail time almost certainly, but not censored. At least kick him out of the Congress and not let him back in. The man is a criminal and needs to be treated as such.

#3  Fine, if they feel so strongly about it, they can pay his unpaid back taxes and the costs of congressional hearings.

#2  No, they are paying Charlie back for all the pork he has directed to his district and playing racial politics to the fullest. Look at the boundaries of Charlie's district, and see if I am wrong.
