From Fox News: The investigative panel of bipartisan lawmakers looking at alleged violations of House rules by New York Rep. Charlie Rangel recommended a "reprimand" for the longtime lawmaker, Rep. Gene Green, D-Texas, a member of the panel, said Friday.
Well there you have it. The man is charged with THIRTEEN violations of House rules, and the best the 'Drain the Swamp' House of Retards can do is give him a reprimand?
"There there Charlie, its alright. Try to do your taxes correctly next time, okay son?"
Never mind that there were "28 instances in which he(Rangel) failed to report acquiring, owning, or disposing assets".
Never mind the reports that Rangel "exchanged official favors – a tax loophole for oil driller Nabors Industries Ltd. – in exchange for a $1 million gift to the Charles Rangel Center at City College of New York."
Never mind that Rangel has been plagued by corruption problems in the past.
Despite all of this, and other allegations that have not been disclosed in detail, the House wants to give him a 'reprimand'.
The hypocrisy is unbelievable, and Rangel isn't the first to exposed.
Earlier this week, we had reports about how John Kerry moved his yacht from his own state, and in the process dodged a nearly $500,000 sales tax. This from the man who has repeatedly voted to raise taxes in Congress.
So in less than a week, we have 2 instances where rich Democrats who vote for higher taxes, and then turn right around and circumvent paying the taxes they owe.
Why don't you practice what you preach, Democrats?
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: "If liberals didn't have double standards, then they wouldn't have any standards at all."
