The House Ways and Means Committee former Chair, Democrat Charles Rangel, has been charged with 13 ethics violations by his colleagues. To think that a man like him was in charge of creating tax laws is appalling. Of the 13 ethics violations, the majority have to do with finances- failing to report rental income, etc. Even Obama is now calling for Rangel to step down. Of course the better alternative for Republicans is if Rangel fights these charges and creates a huge circus for Democrats before the mid-term elections.
Another leading House Democrat, Maxine Waters, is under investigation for working with a bank to distribute them money on which her husband held stock on. This is an ongoing investigation.
We also have failed Presidential Candidate John Kerry cheating on paying his yacht taxes in Massachusetts by docking his 7 million dollar yacht in neighboring Rhode Island. After conservatives called him out on this, Kerry's "decided" to pay the tax anyway. What a man!!
LA Dodger owner Frank McCourt has not paid taxes on revenues for over 6 years now. When the tax man cometh, watch out. The reason why I mention this-- McCourt is a committed liberal and donor to everything Democrat.
Has to be asked once again-- Has Speaker Pelosi "drained the swamp" like she promised? Seems like she looks the other way when Democrats act this way!
