Charley Rangel- Drain the Swamp

Rangle faces further investigation.

From the AP This means I have to Paraphrase, but instead of giving you direct quotes and the link, I'll just give you a summary, so if you want to read more, there is no reason.

Ethics investigation is looking at the charges.

• He violated house Rules by using his position to Raise money for his building at the City College of New York.
• His Committee was considering legislation at the same time he was soliciting donations.
• Provided a tax shelter for oil drilling company, Nabours Industries. The CEO donated to His Center.
• Used Four Rent-controlled apartments, as his Primary Residence.
• Information and disclosure of the financing of his guest unit in the Cana Yacht Club in punta cana.

From McClatchy.

Even after Rangel's announcement, Republicans continued to blast Democrats on ethics. The National Republican Congressional Committee released a statement accusing vulnerable Democrats in 55 districts of accepting "tainted" campaign contributions from Rangel and challenging them to give the money back.

Democrats pledged to "drain the swamp" of unethical practices during the previous 12 years of Republican House control. Pelosi pledged that in the first 100 days after the new House would convene in 2007, new rules would be put in effect to "break the link between lobbyists and legislation."

Yep, Nancy you Bitch! Drain the Swamp and you find out it's filled with Crocodiles, and you are one of them. It's extra funny, when it looked like, even Nancy, had to Strong arm Rangel's Corrupt ass out.

Lets not forget about the Millions in Random Bank accounts!

Good For Jim Bunning

Good for him.

Bunning wants the $10 billion price of extending the programs offset by reductions in spending elsewhere in the budget in order not to drive up the deficit. The Senate can overcome his objection if 60 of its 100 members vote to do so. So far they haven't, and doing that would take at least four days under Senate rules.

No mater what you say, you have to agree that, he is standing for something. A rare thing in Congress. The arguments of Moron Democrats like Harry (dickless) Reid, arguing "well you were a hypocrite before, Come over and be a hypocrite again. Just like the rest of us.

Bunning once again stressed he supports the programs and funding in the measure and criticized Reid and Democrats for not sticking to recently passed "pay-go" provisions, which require paying for such programs with readily available funds rather than additional borrowing

If you are not smart enough to realize, Everybody is fiscally conservative when the Other party is in Power. But nobody has the Balls to, put the brakes on it, and take the Heat that Bunning is taking. If you notice, it has been four days already, Just like congress to whine about, working the weekend. Talk to real american workers about how many times they have had to dig in and work the weekend.

It's easy to talk about Cutting the Deficit when things are easy, Real Hero's are brave enough to do it when it is hard.

Congress can't vote for every tax cut, and for every spending bill, and just hope things will work out.
