#1 So all this will mean is that the investigation will take longer to complete. Since Pelosi et al. will protect him until the investigation is "complete", Rangel will never be removed from his chairmanship.
Unless, of course, the Republicans take back the house in 2010.

Yeah, but would the pubbies go full bore after Charlie and the other corruptocrats? There's a definite lack of guts (and willingness to suffer bad mouthing by the media) in the pubbies. Too much of that "my good friend" stuff. I really wish they'd fight back.

#5 Omiting, true that. What I meant was that Charlie will be removed from the chairmanship if the Republicans take back the House in 2010 - but only because then a Republican will become the chairman.
He will never be prosecuted or even censured for his actions - Congress doesn't have the balls.
If an ordinary citizen had done what Charlie did, the IRS, FBI, NY Attorney General, and many other agencies would be all over him.
