On page A13 today, the Washington Post has this article on Charlie Rangel, the chief tax code writer in Congress, owing back taxes.
Page A13. Were it a Republican, we both know it would be on the front page.
Republicans want Rangel out of the chairmanship. He should go. Nancy Pelosi promised to clean up the culture of corruption. Let’s make her live up to it.
In the meantime, lets have a caption contest. Here is Charlie Rangel on the beach in front of the property he has failed to pay taxes on:

kyle8 (Diary) Wednesday, September 10th at 2:06PM EST (link)When conservatives like Kudlow and Hannity would have this old reprobate on their shows, and shower him with praise like he were some nice old elder statesman.
In reality he is one of the nastiest, meanest partisan hacks around. He specializes in lies, hate, and below the belt attacks. I wrote a big article about all his nastiness in my blog.
Does it surprise me he seems to also be crooked? Not at all.

I'm Dreaming Of A Big Tax Increase!
walter_hanson Wednesday, September 10th at 2:19PM EST (link)How’s that for a caption.
He’s obviously dreaming about that big tax increase that he wants to do on the people who pay taxes something that this man doesn’t know. Including not knowing the pain of paying for gas since he gets that along with his car as a congressional benefit.

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
