Rangel, "I think it shatters the myth of white supremacy"

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

But there was nothing inadvertent about a quip from Rep. Charles B. Rangel (D-N.Y.), second-most senior member of the Congressional Black Caucus. Rangel was interviewed on New York Public Television WLIW21 last Monday night and asked for his quick reaction to various people. The first was Bush.

"Well," Rangel said. "I really think that he shatters the myth of white supremacy once and for all; it shows that, in this great country, anybody can become president."

We have a winner.

2. i saw it too...made email rounds
but i think it has more impact if you stop the quote at 'once and for all.' reading that was the only thing that made me smile the day the filibuster failed!

12. Nail, meet hammer..........
"anybody can become president". Isn't that the truth? If a mental melt-down like bush can do it, imagine what you could do if you had brains? Being born into a wealthy, well connected family has more to do with it, brains are optional.

14. Or, as Adlai said..........
In America, anybody can be president. That's one of the risks you take.
