If he is not kicked/voted out of office? You might want to change your vote, Slick. Just to show folks...you are... "a man of his word"....
I have no 'vote' for Rangel's seat, you moron. He represents Harlem, in New York City. My voting residence is in the state of Pennsylvania.Ethics will cut a deal,like they always do(no matter the party), and anyone who wins the Democratic primary, wins the House seat from Harlem. The concept of 'safe' seats covers about half the House of Representatives. It really isn't a good thing, because the holders of those seats end up with the seniority, and thus, the power in the House.
But, that's the way the institution works and always has. Lyndon Johnson had a safe seat in your state, and became powerful in Congress, as did Sam Rayburn before him. Likewise, the senior leadership for the GOP.

And Slick is still subtly backing up Rangle. If he was a republican Slick would be singing a different tune.

And that's what's wrong with Slick and his party. It's ok to act improperly and unlawfully as long as it's your criminals doing the deed. Which is typical east coast behavior and which is why most east coasters are douchebags.

more 4th grade stuff, especially given what I've written over the years, or even what I wrote in this thread.
Losing your grip, Ruggie? Or, just a bit fatigued from dancing the flamenco on your own privates?

It's obvious Rugster. As you noted, Rangle might be a crook and a scumbag, but he is a DEMOCRATIC scumbag.

Who you vote for in the future can have an impact on Rangel and his ilk....I know that you are not from New York, even if you sound like it...from time to time. My suggestion, was for you to consider voting for someone, who has ethics.....this time.

ummm, my House rep is a Republican, I voted for him in 2 of his 4 campaigns. Further, I voted for Specter, and gave him money because he did have a good set of personal ethics, IMO.

Specter, ethical ? He lied to how many people, when he changed parties? He is a prime example of why...I say...get rid of them all.
