New Yorkers still support Rangel

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - New Yorkers still support Rangel

Posted: 9/14/2010 8:25:01 PM EDT

This is what's wrong with this Country. I'm not judging Rangel, but as long as dirty politicians continue to be voted in by voters who look past ethics, and irresponsible behavior of these slimey bottom feeding crooks that are supposed to be working for the people. We will continue on the downward spiral to oblivion. It's fucking amazing that voters would continue to support an 80 yr old, dirty career politician, like this person could relate to the common man, instead of rolling the dice and taking a chance on anybody else. There should be term limits, since the voters can't get enough of these fucking criminals, that way maybe we stop having some fucker that's in charge of tax codes, having something to do with me paying my fucking taxes, all the while he's NOT paying his taxes.

It's real easy, if these fuckers can't function by the same rules that I do, they should be treated like I would if I didn't pay my taxes.

It's sickening, really.

Their choice is Adam Clayton Powell II.

Does anyone remember Adam Clayton Powell Jr.? He was so crooked the Congress threw him out, not the voters. They kept putting him back in as well. This particular section of New York is bat shit crazy,....only conclusion possible.

Did you notice how long it took harlem to count votes.... They were still zero percent in three hours after the polls closed. Kind of makes you wonder. Then again look who's running the place.

I am shocked, just shocked I tell you to hear that Charlie Rangel would be re-elected by the fine upstanding individuals in his district after disclosure of his many ethical and criminal misdeeds.

I'm surprized that you're surprized. People with a criminal mindset elect same. The only thing that will change these people is a total dry up of the .gov tit. When someone begins taking out of their pocket to give to someone else, rather than it flowing to them, then they will drift toward the conservative end. As long as things (.gov largess) stay the same they will stay the same.

And San Fran, and LA, and Chitcago, and we would have no problem taking this country back.

The answer is easy, if you don't mind taking a look at the cold hard truth.

Yes, it is a culture thing.

How many times did Dumbass from New Orleans get elected even after retrieving money from a freezer with the national guard during Katrina?

When the beast's account inquiry returns "overdrawn," said culture will thin quickly.

Did anyone notice the pictures with the sanitized Nation Of Islam guys around him? He's a crook. He's a hero because he's gettin' over on whitey Big Time. He could commit murder and still get re-elected.
