on a one way cul-de-sac
Rep. Charles Rangel claimed on mortgage papers that a Harlem brownstone was his principal residence -- even though he was living elsewhere at the time, The Post has learned.

When the Democrat -- who is under investigation by the House Ethics Committee -- took out the mortgage in 1990, he said the property on West 132nd Street was his "principal residence," records show.

But Rangel has been living since the 1970s in Harlem's Lenox Terrace apartment complex, where he improperly amassed four rent-stabilized properties.

Rangel's an idiot....

but the NY Post is still a rag. ;)

They do have the best headlines in the business, though.
 
Rangel has been a target for years. Maybe the NY Post will get lucky this time and one of their stories will suprisingly turn out to be true.
 
cause if he's accused, he must be guilty, eh?

(not that I don't think he probably is...)

Common sense must prevail in conversations at some point, no matter what the "letter of the law" says.

IOW: OJ was guilty.

yet the prosecution put on a terrible case.... leaving the jury no choice but to find him not guilty.

Yes, you are correct.

My point was specific to common sense in conversations (such as this).

yeah... Rupert doesn't like Charlie much.

...which is why I give him the benefit of the doubt on this one.

Anybody could be guilty of something like this but the NY Post would never print a retraction equivilant to the smear. Maybe in the middle of the paper in very small print.

:cool:

Fair enough...and if it was anyone but the NY Post writing about anyone but Charlie Rangel, I'd probably agree with you.

Yes...I think IF the facts as they state them are accurate, it looks pretty bad for Charlie.
 
Rangel is the chairman of the Ways and Means Committee which writes the tax code. He has friends in high places. Even if guilty, he may never be convicted.
 
We are all quite certain the mr. rangel is as innocent as the driven snow. all accusations are just wild dreams from an over imaginative vast rwc..:lol::lol::lol: and butterflies will shit democwat voters next election.

if it went to a jury, I doubt the powers that be could do anything for him.

But truth is they're all hooked up... doesn't mean it wouldn't be a feather in some prosecutor's cap.

Nobody is saying that.

if you find any paper that prints a retraction/apology that is equal to the initial article in terms of placement and length, let me know.

it'll be a first.
