Rendell, Goode Sr. start legal fund for Fattah's son

Former Gov. Ed Rendell and former Mayor W. Wilson Goode have launched a fund-raising effort to pay the legal bills of U.S. Rep. Chaka Fattah's son, who has been under federal investigation for months.

Rendell said he agreed to pitch in after Rep. Fattah contacted him for help.

Rendell, in an interview, estimated that the Philadelphia congressman and his wife had spent $250,000 to help Chaka "Chip" Fattah Jr., 30, and said the costs had become a "little bit of a struggle" for the family.

On Thursday, Rendell said the fund would not reveal the donors or amounts - even to Rep. Fattah.

“Chaka “Chip” Fattah Jr.”

What kind of name is that? “O by the way I’m making some Chaka Chip Cookies”

Chaka Fattah’s original name is Arthur Davenport. His sister’s current name is Queen Mother Falaka Fattah.

El Rushbo refers to him as Chaka Full-O-Nuts.

...the Philadelphia congressman and his wife had spent $250,000 to help Chaka "Chip" Fattah Jr....the wife has been an anchor newsreader for Philly's channel 10 - NBC - for years - between her and her husband's salaries and probable investments, they shouldn't need financial help from the little people.....

Anyone remember when Wilson Goode burned down a whole neighborhood to try and get the Move members out of one house?

Of course! I also have a “Fry Mumia” t-shirt.

Not related, other than being two bits of Philly craziness that were just a few years apart.
