This fat, greasy pig has been around way too long. Time to return to the sewer which spawned him.

The only problem is that the people in Rangell’s district will keep voting for him. What does this show about them???

“Although Israel is a few years advanced into its own destruction, Americans should take note, you are following in Israels foot steps, its time to give the muslim guy running for president the royal boot.”

From your lips to Yahweh’s ear. Shalom my friend.

Look closely at our Congress Critters...

Do you REALLY think these assholes are worthy of the position of trust or power?

Do you view them as Leaders?

Then stop voting for these feckless thugs career morons and thieves.

The Democrat Party — believes Rangle is worthy of a committee chairmanship!

Politically, there were always two things I wanted to live long enough to see. One was the death of Ted Kennedy. Looks like I’ll make that. The other was the death of this raspy-voiced clown.

Old Charlie’s been stirring up S&*(T for YEARS in Harlem... Ever hear of Police Office Phil Cardillo???

A book was recently written about it called “Circle Of Six”, by retired NYPD detective Randy Jurgenson.

Here is the description:

In 1972, New York City was plagued with protests, riots, and general unrest. It was during this defining year that one of the Police Department’s most scandalous cases occurred: the murder of Police Officer Phillip Cardillo. On Friday, April 14, 1972, the police were summoned to Mosque Number 7 in Harlem, led at the time by the Nation of Islam’s Louis Farrakhan, for a ten-thirteen: officer in need of help. The turn of events after this officer distress call has become perhaps the most legendary story in NYPD history. Police entered the Mosque and a conflict occurred, leaving Office Cardillo dead, and the city on the brink of a full-scale riot. Sensing a potential crisis and conflict with the Nation of Islam and the Black Liberation Army, New York City Mayor John Lindsey, Commissioner Benjamin Ward, and Congressman Charles Rangel acquiesced to the city’s black leaders and ordered the police out of the Mosque.

Subsequently, the details of Officer Cardillo’s murder and the events of what happened at the Mosque were covered up and an investigation was never truly launched until NYPD detective Randy Jurgensen began his own investigation. For four years, he would not rest, taking on the Mayor, his superiors in the NYPD, the Nation of Islam, and seemingly at times, the entire city of New York, before he could affect an arrest. His investigation revealed the tragic and shameful story of the political scandal and cover-up that rocked the NYPD and the Nation of Islam.

A little more detail here:

Patrolmen Phil Cardillo and Vito Navarra were riding in 28 sector George. They were the first RMP to respond to a ‘10-13 on the second floor’ at 102 West 116 Street.

After arriving and entering the building, which was a mosque, they questioned about 10 muslims at the front desk about the call. Suddenly, the muslims shouted, “Allah Akhbar” more muslims came from rooms, then the officers were beaten and stomped by numerous black muslims.

A minute or two later Patrolmen Vic Padilla and Ivan Negron of the 25 pct arrived and when also badly beaten and knocked to the ground. Navarra was able to crawl to the front door which was then slammed shut by the muslims. He told the responding cops, that Cardillo was still inside. Thru a small window in the front door Cops could see Cardillo on the floor being kicked by the surrounding mob. Padilla was down and being stomped and his gun was taken. Ptl. Negron was being beaten and he was fighting off numerous hands that were attempting to rip the gun from his holster.

One of the muslims, six foot four and 260 pounds, Louis 17X Dupree grabbed Cardillo’s gun, ripped it from the holster and fired a round into Cardillo. The cops at the front door smashed the glass and afraid of hitting the fallen cops, fired five rounds over the heads of the muslims. Padilla, seeing Louis Dupree running with the gun, fired three rounds. More 10-13’s are called.

The cops broke in the front door. The seventeen muslims ran to the basement. Cops flooded through the door and chased the fleeing muslims down the stairs. The cops had them against the wall and began searching for the missing guns. Cardillo is removed to St. Lukes hospital. At the same time outside the mosque, a large crowd of about a thousand locals, begin to riot.

Cars were overturned, bricks are coming of the roofs, and cops and media people are being assaulted. While this is going on, Deputy Chief Inspector William Knapp arrives, and went into the basement and spoke with Inspector John Haugh the 28 pct CO. Insp. Haugh had responded to the 10-13. He told the cops to guard the prisoners.

Knapp called Commissioner Pat Murphy and advised him of the turmoil inside and outside the mosque. While Knapp is talking on the phone, he heard shouting. He turned and saw Louis Farrakhan and Charlie Rangel leading a large group of muslims down the basement stairs. Farrakhan is shouting that all the cops must leave the temple. Knapp tells Haugh to move to the street.

Now Deputy Commissioner Ben Ward arrives, with Farrakhan at his side, he shouts to the superior officers that the cops immediately leave the mosque. The crime scene was abandoned. Farrakhan and Rangel are shouting to the superior officers “if you stay, there is nothing we can do to protect you. You’ll be overrun. There’ll be rioting. People may be killed.” Farrakhan and Rangel ‘promise’ that the prisoners would come to the 24 pct. at five o’clock to be questioned. Do you think anyone showed up?

Phil Cardillo died six days later. Mayor John Lindsay and Commissioner Pat Murphy did NOT attend the funeral.

A few days after Cardillo was buried. Deputy Commissioner Ben Ward was quoted in the Amsterdam news: I believe that my investigation has pointed out, at least to my satisfaction, that there were some errors made on the part of the police. For the errors, and for the consequence of those errors, I apologize to minister Farrakhan.”

Recognize any names?

I have rarely seen such a poorly written article! What I find most astounding is that someone actually let that slop get published! I wouldn’t allow my 9 year old son to put out such a poorly written piece of work! There are so many problems with it that you just can’t take it seriously!
