We *wanted* to like him... Charlie Rangel has always come across as somewhat
...well, folksy. He should, since he represents a working-class district
(NY's 15th) and the people he represents expect him to champion their needs.

It was very disappointing, therefore, to find Charlie voting for the China
trade deal ...a scam which will cost hundreds of thousands - perhaps
*millions* of American jobs, and will depress wages for millions more ..for
decades to come.  You'd expect this sort of thing from elsewhere, perhaps
..but from Charlie?

This stabbing in the back of the American worker prompted us to reexamine
Representative Rangel's voting record, and it is a big disappointment. It
seems Rangel likes resolutions like one which resolved that it is important
for families to eat together. Boy, thanks for *that* one, Charlie!   ...When
it comes to protecting civil rights and American jobs, however, Charlie has
been asleep at the wheel: His voting record tends to contradict his public
persona as a champion of minorities and the working class.

It is with great sadness, therefore, that we must award Representative
Charles Rangel the "Weasel Of The Week" .. for the full details, visit

The fact is, Representative Charlie Rangel should be called the OREO OF THE
WEEK ..or perhaps the decade.


You know, perhaps voters need to let Charlie know that he must stop taking
them for granted.

Sincerely
The Cranky Media Guy
