Rangel and the race card

Rangel Plays Race Card, Says Obamacare The Victim

Harlem Congressman: Some Americans Go To Sleep At Night Wondering About Presidency: "How Did This Happen?"

First, Gov. David Paterson did it. Now, Rep. Rangel is doing it as an ethics probe heats up. The "it" is playing the race card. Rangel said "bias" and "prejudice" are fueling opposition to health care reform. Already under fire for a wide range of ethical questions, Rangel played the race card in a health care forum the other night, saying racial bias against President Obama is behind opposition to health care reform. "Some Americans have not gotten over the fact that Obama is President of the United States. They go to sleep wondering, 'how did this happen?'" Rangel also likened the fight to provide health care for the uninsured to the fight for civil rights. "Why do black people have to bargain for what is theirs? Why do we have to wait for the right to vote? Why can't we get what God has given us? And that is the right to live as human beings and not negotiate with white southerners and not court the votes. Just do the right thing," Rangel said. Rangel's incendiary remarks come as the congressman filed amended financial reports to the House Ethics Committee admitting that he forgot to report millions of dollars in assets and income.

Kliphnote:

I am just sick and tired of the race card being played every time

someone doesn't like what Obama or any other black politician is doing.

It is NOT because they are black, it's because they don't like their policy's.

These are the same people that called Bush a racist. Even thou Bush gave

more money to Africa than anyone. These people are just clueless.

I don't mind helping the helpless, but I do mind helping the clueless.

Sorry, Charlie
Rep. Rangel must step aside as chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee.

Thursday, September 3, 2009

FOR POLITICIANS with major bad news to release or to make public, there's no time like the dead of August to do it. The thinking goes that the public won't remember a thing come September. We hope Rep. Charles B. Rangel (D-N.Y.) will have no such luck. His belated revelation of previously unreported income, property and bank accounts demands that he step aside as chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee.

Barack Obama's communist Green Czar Van Jones is a Truther.

He believes the Bush Administration was behind 9-11 and signed the official 9-11 Truth Document demanding a further investigation.

911 Truth Statement

Respected Leaders and Families Launch 9/11 Truth Statement Demanding Deeper Investigation into the Events of 9/11

NEW YORK CITY, NY (Oct. 26, 2004) – An alliance of 100 prominent Americans and 40 family members of those killed on 9/11 today announced the release of the 911 Truth Statement, a call for immediate inquiry into evidence that suggests high-level government officials may have deliberately allowed the September 11th attacks to occur. The Statement supports an August 31st Zogby poll that found nearly 50% of New Yorkers believe the government had foreknowledge and "consciously failed to act," with 66% wanting a new 9/11 investigation.

We call 51% a majority and 22% a lunatic fringe.

When will Reparations for slavery begin? When will Obama start pulling out of Afghanistan.
