Break the rules pay the price , what an asshole
A House ethics panel has convicted Representative Charles B. Rangel of 12 of the 13 ethics violations he faced.
Mr. Rangel, an 80-year-old Democrat who has represented Harlem for four decades and was the longtime head of the House Ways and Means Committee, had been accused of bringing dishonor to Congress by accepting rent-stabilized apartments from a Manhattan developer, failing to pay taxes on a rental income from his Dominican villa and raising charitable donations from companies and corporate executives who had business before the committee he led.
