Charlie Rangel Says Some Republicans 'Believe That Slavery Isn't Over'
2014-10-31
[BUSINESSINSIDER] Veteran Rep. Charlie Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Rangel
Congressman-for-Life from Harlem, who became what 20 terms in Congress turns you into ...
 (D-N.Y.) had some harsh words for the Republican Party during a Thursday campaign rally for New York Gov. Andrew Sonny Cuomo (D).

As he has done repeatedly before, Rangel compared some members of the GOP to confederates from the Civil War era. But at the Thursday evening event, he added that they "believe slavery isn't over."

"We have to win. We have to be able to send a national message with Andrew Cuomo. And the thing is everything we believe in --everything we believe in -- they hate. They don't disagree -- they hate! They think if you didn't come from Europe 30 years ago, you didn't even make it. Some of them believe that slavery isn't over and they and think they won the Civil War!" Rangel shouted.

In contrast, Rangel said the Democratic Party was doing "God's work" on issues important to the American people.

"And so what we have to do is send a collective voice," he said of the upcoming midterm elections. "Everything we're doing is God's work: education, healthcare, affordable housing, discrimination, paying people the minimum wage."

#13  They are desperate. They're bringing out the race card. Unfortunately, since the MSM aids and abets such notions, some will buy into this.

#12  When the one grants amnesty all these illegals - watch how our ballots start looking third world with just the party symbol on the ballot and no names.

#9  Yes, the Latino flesh trade is particularly lucrative at the moment.

Especially trying is the fact that it will happen on the orders of a president who identifies himself as black...who makes the character Carlton Banks look like Tu Pac.

Less believable is Michelle and her pretty princess routine. Its a seriel lie, a deception, and its in your face, and if someone lies for you they are going to lie to you. Includes Rangel, convicted liar.

Better wake up Black America. You are about to be sold by the democrats for a box of paper and point cards.

#8  We Republicans KNOW the Civil War isn't over because the Democrats still enjoy the ownership of black Americans.

#7  Charlie Rangel Says Some Republicans 'Believe That Slavery Isn't Over'

Says Charlie 'Judas Goat' Rangel who keeps his own people in subservient bondage for vote harvesting. Keep projecting Charlie. Obama is about to throw the bunch of you under the bus for the Latino faction.

#5  . . . and central banks. Both of which are necessary to accomplish all those things he identifies as "God's work." Just because he doesn't understand where all the money magically comes from doesn't make it divine.

And, um, yeah, a Republican DID win the civil war. Sheesh. Is he really that dumb?

#4  It's true. Slavery isn't over until Income taxes are abolished.

#2  Because they see US citizens being slowly, but surely, turned into serfs?

#1  they think they won the Civil War!" Rangel shouted.

Actually, dude, we kinda sorta did. Do we need to revisit the history of the Democratic Party from the post-Civil War thru the Civil Rights era?
