"They'll get out of Iraq so fast if they thought that Middle America had to make any sacrifices," Rangel said

Rangel's playing of both the class and race cards is despicable. And he's playing to a constituency that actually believes that poor minorities are the only enlisted folks in the armed forces.

Yes, the uninformed. People like Rangel rely on the uninformed.

I don’t believe Mr. Rangel has been to many bases in the last 150 years. “Middle America” or “Fly Over Country” makes up a HUGE portion of the services.
