Ethically-challenged Democrat Congressman Charlie Rangel took to the floor of the House to demand a trial. He talked for 31 minutes. He rambled. He ranted. He raved. He preached. And he did it all like he didn’t have a clue that he’s a dead man walking.
Here are a few of the highlights (or, if you prefer, lowlights):
- “The President wants dignity. Let’s have dignity in this house, where the ethics committee means something. And that none of you, if the newspapers say anything, will have to wait two years before you can say ‘no comment.’”
- “Why did I take the floor today when I haven’t found one lawyer that said I should do it? I haven’t even found one friend that said I should do it.”
- “If I can’t get my dignity back here, then fire your best shot in getting rid of me through expulsion.”
- “Hey, if I was you I may want me to go away, too. I am not going away! I am here!”
This show is definitely going to be worth the price of admission
