Yet another ugly racist rears his head in the halls of the U.S. Congress. Congressman, Charles Rangel (Racist-NY) showed yet again that he cares more about the color of people’s skin instead of the content of their character.
Why do black people have to bargain for what is theirs? Why do we have to wait for the right to vote? Why can’t we get what God has given us? And that is the right to live as human beings and not negotiate with white southerners and not court the votes.
Sorry, Charlie, some people really care about the policies being discussed and implemented, not the color of people’s skin. It must be extremely difficult for a 79 year old racist who “forgets” millions of dollars on his financial returns to understand that while he may be a racist and care about skin color, most people are not. It is apparent to everyone that attempting to divide people on the basis of skin color helps your political career and helps you keep your power over the rest of us, but do something that is right for the country instead of yourself for a change. Tax evasion is only for the “rest of us” not the politicians in Washington like Rangel.
Stop playing the victim, get some guts and debate something on the merits instead of being a racist, playing the race card. Renounce your racist policies and statements and then resign. Stop projecting your own all-consuming racism on the rest of the country. Of course, Rep. Charles Rangel (Racist-NY) has been playing the race card for years, so what do you expect here?
In short, it is your policies, not your pigment, Charlie. The same goes for President Obama. When the mainstream media has been swallowing his guilt trips for years, Rep Rangel shouldn’t take all the blame because he expects that no one will dare call him on his blatant racism. But no more. The mainstream media no longer has a stranglehold on opinion and racists are racists no matter what their skin color.
That which was specifically forbidden by the Civil Rights Act is now explicitly (albeit covertly) required by the federal government. Employers are given quotas of black employees they will hire, records of minority-group employment are diligently maintained, and censuses repeatedly taken.
