3. I'm watching and he's great. I wouldn't call it a "hoot" though. |
|
What I hear from Rangel is wisdom and tolerance. I wish more leaders were of his calibre.

Barbara Lee on now.
Rangel ripped into the b*shies: 9/11, Florida, Iraq. You should be able to get a transcript later.
Compared b*shco to a gang: "If you go into a bad neighborhood, you better know how to get out." So true.

25. Did you hear that Bush hasn't met with with the Black Caucus |
|
because he had the pre-condition that they could not talk about the Iraq war before he would agree to meet with him?

not lost. what an inspiration they brought to the downtrodden. Rangel is certainly a very eloquent speaker and commands a lot of respect. He shows he truly cares about people unlike most of the professional politicians that have forgotten that their job is to represent the people. BOY! do I fel hopeful tonight!
