It's not just Republicans who are upset about Charlie Rangel's rampant hypocrisy, as I reported recently ("
Oh, Charlie"), but any American who works hard, pays his/her taxes, and follows the rules. Oh, and obeys the tax laws even though they haven't WRITTEN any of them. Rangel cannot say the same, and pressure continues to increase for him to step down:

Hi Rev Amy!
IMO, I don't think we really have an "Ethics Committee", what we have is window dressing so the voters THINK we have an ethics committee. It's just another way that the government appeases it's constituents, another false front.
Regarding Obama and his Czars...I'm beginning to think instead of playing "Hail to the Chief" when he walks in a room, they should be playing the Soviet National Anthem.
It just boggles the mind that the so-called "Progressives" are so silent on this czar thing when they would have been screaming at the top of their lungs if it were a Republican President doing the same thing. The hypocrisy of this progressive crowd is pathetic.
Charlie Rangal, Obama, Pelosi, Reid and the rest of those Bozo's are going to keep thumbing their noses at the American people because they can...because people like the Daily Kossack's let them do it.
(BTW- I answered your comment from over the weekend on my blog. Sorry it took so long, very busy weekend!)
OHMYGODDESS - I wish I could figure out a way to have that anthem play every time I mentioned Obama...That was freakin' AWESOME, ME!!!
Sadly, you are too right abt the Ethics Committee. It is infuriating, though, that the man who helps to write the tax laws can willfully break them and STILL not have any consequences for it!
Huffington Post is defending Dar Leader for the "Right Wing" attack on Van Jones. I'm sorry, but as lefty, socialistic (with a small "s" - like help people/animals/the planet out, help take care of one another - the whole biblical admonition thing) as I have been my entire life, having an avowed COMMUNIST in the White House is too much to take. That they are DEFENDING this guy speaks volumes as to how far off the rails the DailyKooks and HuffPo have gone. That is beyond the pale. Especially when they try to claim - once again- that it's abt racism. Uh, NO, it's abt the PERSON, his beliefs, and how he has conducted himself. They seem to be the only ones bringing up color...
And you know what I have said a number of times - if you expect LESS from someone because of the color of their skin, if you do not hold them to the same standards as everyone else, THAT is racist. That they continually want to let Obama and his posse off the hook for actions that would have gotten any other politician run out of town on rails for something comparable, is telling indeed...
Great comment, ME!!
