Disgusting. Companions-in-Crime. I hope this makes the average American taxpayer even more angry. Double standard indeed!!!

I hope that Congress's new job approval rating of 21% sinks even lower.

Pelosi, armed with the power to inject a little integrity into her party by asking or demanding Rangel step down until the investigation into his tax evasion is complete, does nothing!
.
This man hasn't held legitamite job since 1971 when he slid into the House of Representatives........ Then proceeded to take every advantage of every situation in his path.

The saddest part about it is that the people in Rangel's own party don't care. Could it be that he has tax records that could be embarrassing to some of his own party members? If not, what else? hmmm hmmm hmmm!

Where are the police? If this were you or me, we'd be in jail?

Why, oh why is this crook allowed to remain in his position?? Personally, I don't believe it has anything to do with anything "embarrassing"; I believe it has everything to do with standing by fellow Congressmen so as to maintain power. "You scratch my back; I'll scratch yours".
