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.

6. A hoot in the sense that he can describe the awful situation
in a down to earth, common man way that makes you think and get MAD ABOUT THE SITUATION while you are laughing...

4. Yeah, great speech
Edited on Fri Sep-26-03 09:00 PM by FubarFly
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.

28. All is
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!
