"I would not advise anybody that's running for election as a Democrat to vote for this," said Rangel, who contended Republicans abused parliamentary standards to rush a vote to the floor without hearings or discussion. "It's a prostitution of the legislative process," he said.
Charlie Rangel is all of a sudden an expert on prostitution. What a slug...
lets get everyone on record, including f'in and the pony not voting...
It should be brought to the floor and voted on immediately.
And however could they have gotten the notion that a draft was imminent, BAGHDAD JIM???
Suddenly NOW you want to fight a "grave and gathering danger" without certain proof that the danger even exists. And you say BUSH lied to get us into an unneccesary conflict?
Much like Jabba The Hutt...although Jabba talks more clearly than Gargles The Clown.
It's on CSPAN right now and Rangel is trying to get out of it.
Charlie...three words my good friend: Pot. Kettle. Black.
This rumor is not limited to the Internet. Its the stuff of columnists' speculation in the major newspapers of record, picked up by the wire services and re-printed by hundreds of smaller papers. The Des Moines Register's Rekha Basu (the fright wig) reports Tom Harkin is spreading this story. Howard Dean's syndicated column says its only a metter of time before the draft returns.
This is hysterical. They start the rumor .. hide the legislation and blame Bush .. when they're called on it, Rangel tells all those running for office - DO NOT VOTE FOR THIS BILL.
Geeeeee Rangel .. why would you not want people to vote for this garbage you started ..?? Because you know it's a political death sentence for any dem who supports it.
Rush was laughing hysterically over this today!
And .. I have to applaud my guy, Duncan Hunter (R-CA), who is head of the Armed Services Committee. Goooooooo Duncan!
dubya needs to go on the stump with THIS remark: "as president of the united states, i promise that i will NEVER allow the democrats to turn our army into a draft army." he needs to go on the OFFENSIVE and say we won't let the democrats bill to draft our young people involuntarily.
BUMP
BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP. BUMP!
Twenty-one bump salute for being spot on!
BTTT
LMAO!!!! Finally, somebody in the House leadership has a clue! Please, somebody capture a clip of Charlie Rangel's head exploding on this! Priceless!!!!!!!
Let us know what the final is. Of course the dimwits will vote against it to prove they are the good guys and the rumors that it's all the Republicans' fault will still be believed.
Charlie wants hearings on something that isn't going to happen and is complaining that his bill is being brought to the floor. This is a total waste of time and taxpayer loot...
McHugh R, NY is cracking me up. This is good.
BWAAAAHAAA!!! Charlie Rangel is going to vote against his OWN bill??? John Kerry has started a trend in the Democratic party......draw up some legislation and then vote against it! Rangel was FOR the draft before he decided to vote against it. Priceless.
It was the draft that made that victory possible and to completely occupy and control the enemies and restart them toward democracy.
