Charlie “Goddamn” Rangel

It was more like, “why don’t you mind your goddamned business.” I’ll tell you what, Charlie Rangel, Harlem congressman. I’ll mind my business when you stop wielding political power for personal gain. On second thought, since you’re a public official, you’re business is my business.

Note that Rangel’s corruption is so remarkably bad that even The New York Times has called for his resignation. Dude, The New York Freakin’ Times!

There’s something eerily similar about this ambush to other ones. Murtha darts into the elevator. Kennedy prays that he can dart into the elevator. And Rangel takes his cue from Murtha. Say what you will about John Kerry, but at least he didn’t cut and run.

Of little significance to Rangel’s politics, but doesn’t the brother sound like Elmar Fud?
