CHARLIE RANGEL, ANOTHER DESPERATE DEMOCRAT???

 

While I remain a bit of a skeptic when it comes to all of the recent hype about how it is that the Democrats are now said to be in full-blown panic mode regarding the election in 4 days, it does seem that they are resorting to what can only be described as some rather unseemly tactics in their effort to hold on to the Senate. From Maryland to Georgia to North Carolina to Louisiana, what we are now seeing from the Democrats is a new low even for them.

And now joining the chorus of the unhinged we now have none other than the very senile Charlie Rangel making all manner of idiotic, and very racist, accusations. It was just yesterday that Rangel once again likened Republicans to Confederates from the Civil War era, charging that they "believe slavery isn't over." But I thought that was a rather odd thing for him to say, especially since it’s Rangel’s party that was, and in a sense still is, the party of slavery.

While attending an evening rally for the corrupt governor of New York, Andy Cuomo, who’s seeking re-election, Rangel said, "We have to win. We have to be able to send a national message with Andrew Cuomo." And this senile old boob went on to say, "And the thing is everything we believe in, everything we believe in, they hate." I thought that statement, too, was a bit ironic since it’s the Democrat Party that is so obviously consumed by hate.

And then he went on to say, "They don't disagree — they hate." Adding, "They think if you didn't come from Europe 30 years ago, you didn't even make it." And then is demonstrating that he must be in the advanced stages of dementia, Charlie went on to say, "Some of them believe that slavery isn't over and they and think they won the Civil War." Are blacks really stupid enough to believe this tripe? If so, they and the Democrats deserve each other!

Rangel, who said last week that the Islamic State (ISIS) was not a national security threat to the United States, has long compared Republicans to Confederates. He also told the Cuomo rally that the Democrats were, by contrast, doing "God's work" on issues that were important to Americans and called on participants to "send a collective voice" in next Tuesday's elections. I think old Charlie might want be careful what he wishes for.

Rangel said, "Everything we're doing is God's work: education, healthcare, affordable housing, discrimination, paying people the minimum wage." He must have a rather twisted perception of what ‘God’s work’ consists of. I don’t see it as being ‘God’s work’ to rob from people their ability to decide for themselves the type of healthcare coverage they wish, or their ability to find a job or the expectations that their government will keep them safe.

Look, not only was Rangel’s party, the Democrat Party, the main proponent of slavery, but it was also the main culprit behind Jim Crow, years of segregation and it remains quite difficult to find a member of the Ku Klux Klan that is not a Democrat. So to say that Charlie is being a bit hypocritical here, as well as trying hard to rewrite history, I think would be a bit of an understatement. But it’s what Democrats will continue to do until it no longer works.
