Rangel Going To Trial Over Ethics Charges

Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-NY) will face 13 charges of violating congressional ethics rules and guidelines, including accepting gifts over $50 and failing to report rental income on a beach villa in the Dominican Republic. What do you think?


“To be fair to Rep. Rangel, the gifts may have been over $50, but they were still pretty stupid gifts.”

“Why didn’t he use all those secret gifts to bribe his way out of this?”

“If our representatives aren’t allowed to accept expensive gifts, how in the world are they supposed to know what to vote for?”
