Because he thought it would end the war if the draft were going to be truly equitable, with sons of congressmen being drafted along with everyone else--to be fair to the slimeball.

At least I get to vote against him again in November. A lot of people in his district are fed up with him, but he will need pressure from the party in order to step down.

"Common sense dictates that members of Congress should not be held responsible for what could be the wrongdoing or errors of staff, unless there's reason to believe that the member knew or should have known -- and there's nothing in the record to indicate the latter," Rangel told reporters on Capitol Hill. "I think right now I have to let the general community make its own judgment," Rangel said.

TRANSLATION: I represent Harlem - the blacks in my district will vote for me anyway.

“Rangel called the findings “disturbing and said a staff members he blamed for the mistakes has been fired.”

Somebody should take those staff members out for several stiff drinks. Loosen up their tongues, so to speak,,,,,,,

Sestak Scandal:

The Spectator is calling this a “Bombshell”, the reason being is that it’s Demcorats who are accusing the White House of offering jobs for favors.

“In the face of a White House denial, U.S. Rep. Joe Sestak stuck to his story yesterday that the Obama administration offered him a “high-ranking” government post if he would not run against U.S. Sen. Arlen Specter in Pennsylvania’s Democratic primary.”

Also very important is the fact that Troops Out Now is a front for the communist Workers World Party. WWP founded that other so-called “anti-war” group ANSWER. ANSWER is now officially controlled by the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL). The PSL is a splinter of WWP. Its leaders are ‘former’ WWP leaders. A very dangerous, hate-America bunch this is.

ANSWER... They are a group comprised of vermin who hate jews with a passion.

I remember a long time ago on CSPAN they had a so called "rally" in DC where it was US and Israel bashing.

I called the ANSWER phone number spoke to a feminine man. Asked him why he hates Jews and hung up.

Rangel’s whole philosophy is that his constituents expect their congressman to live in this type of luxury.

He used this reasoning to justify his luxury car leases in this article.

The whole entire set of allies (Iran, Russia, Chavez, and the commie left here) all hate America and Israel with a passion. It's not personal, it's political.
