Venom Between Obama and Rangel
New York Post ^ | Ddecember 7, 2013 | Michael Gartland

They’re two of the most powerful African-American politicians in the land. And by most accounts, President Obama and Rep. Charles Rangel hate each other.

The most recently revealed salvo in their war of words — Obama’s assertion that Rangel is a “hack,” according to the political tome “Double Down” — is just one element of a long-dysfunctional relationship.

Rangel supported Hillary Clinton in the 2008 Democratic primary, but the seeds of mutual disdain were planted before that, according to Democratic insiders and staffers for both pols.

Venom Between Obama and Rangel

Of course Rangel hates Obama. Rangel is a ‘down-for-the-struggle’ black who has been in the fray for decades playing the race card, victimizing his race and intimidating (guilting) whites.

Obama is a foreign Muslim poofter who was put where he is, in under the span of 6 years (see Turtle - Fence Post).

Rangel is jealous, and Obama could care less about down-for-the-struggle anything unless it involves the words “Allahu Akbar”.

Perhaps they should fight a duel.

With either outcome America wins.

Venom is understandable. Obama is a radical nationalist socialist, and meets every test of history in his ideology and conduct as a fascist.

Good Read :

“Barack Obama, The Quintessential Fascist”

http://www.americanthinker.com/2009/05/barack_obama_the_quintessentia_1.html

Rangel is a liberal in the style of Hillery Clinton, and does not share the destructive, devisive methods of Barak Obama, but his orientation is hardly representative of the American public as a whole.He did not knuckle under to Obama;s insitance that every African American community ion the uSA come under Obamas nationalist socialist community worker continuous campaign program. Rangel did not surrender as others such as Maxine Waters ( she cut a deal with Obama and consequently avoided censorship by the House ethics Committee) who were either forced or blackmailed into doing.Rangel took the full hit of the ethics committee in his scandel, whose investigation was promoted by Obama in the House when it was under Democrat control, in an attempt to destroy Rangel. Obama failed to collar Rangel.

Need to get Joe Bidumb involved somehow.

Nancy could be standing by, as she did in her prior profession, as towel girl.

There once was an Indian whose given name was “Onestone”, so named because he had only one testicle. He hated that name and asked everyone not to call him Onestone. After years and years of torment, Onestone finally cracked and said, “If anyone calls me Onestone again I will kill them!”

The word got around and nobody called him that any more.

Then one day a young woman named Blue Bird forgot and said, “Good morning, Onestone.” He jumped up, grabbed her and took her deep into the forest where he made love to her all day and all night. He made love to her all the next day, until Blue Bird died from exhaustion.

The word got around that Onestone meant what he promised he would do.

Years went by and no one dared call him by his given name until a woman named Yellow Bird returned to the village after being away for many years. Yellow Bird, who was Blue Bird’s cousin, was overjoyed when she saw Onestone. She hugged him and said, “Good to see you, Onestone.” Onestone grabbed her, took her deep into the forest, then he made love to her all day, made love to her all night, made love to her all the next day, made love to her all the next night, but Yellow Bird wouldn’t die!

What is the moral of this story?

You can’t kill two birds with one stone.

Now you are cooking with peanut oil. . . .
How beautiful to see them both on the ground with mortal wounds.

Really, Rangel is a petit thief compared to the likely billions Obama and his minions have siphoned off.

What a piker..

Of course, to be fair, that's not his job.

Charlie Rangel is a hack. A crook. And a very sloppy dresser. There is no room on Team Obama for sloppy dressers.

Team Obama is going with the Rev. Sharpton. He has lost a ton of weight, has turned hisself into a babe magnet with sharp tailoring and a TV gig. He can do a lot more for The Mombasa MF than Ole Charlie, who has served 118 consecutive terms in Congress, and may have been dead since 1997.

However, if he is actually still alive, Ole Charlie would be wise to butter up Valrie Jarrett, maybe send Reggie Love some new cuff links.
