The big question among Democrats on this Wednesday is whether there is any political harm from attending tonight's 80th birthday party for Rep. Charles Rangel. The 20 term Congressman is facing ethics charges and refuses to go quietly...His defiant speech yesterday left no doubt about that....
Let me say, I am not attending, but its not because I wouldn't like to. It's just I have to work tonight.
For those top Democrats, who suddenly put their own interest above those of Mr. Rangel's milestone, I say shame on you....Go to the party and wish him well...You can always call for his resignation tomorrow.

In the face of criminal charges which democrat went willingly. Look at the NYS Senate. Wait, Spitzer and he regrets it.
I disagree. I currently favor the republican party but similar to you have seldom voted for a winning president. My true views can only be supported by Democrats. This birthday boy ranks at the top of the list of democrats that I would not support or have much good to say about. I would have shunned him all along.
I don't know if he was a crook from the beginning, but he certainly learned while on the job. Too bad. With his veterans record he could have been respected man. Now he's just another criminal who cries racism when his actions are cited.
