The boys and girls in Washington D. C. are fighting again. Rep. Charles Rangel, (D) NY, a man accused of being a crook for many years and suspected of being a crook for even longer, doesn’t like the fact he has to face the music. He fired his legal team months ago as he prepared for this ethics hearing. He has known about this hearing for a year. On the day the hearing starts, he shows up and demands a continuance. He says he cannot afford an attorney and needs time to secure one. Apparently he needs additional time to steal enough money to hire a better lawyer. He gets on a soapbox about himself and walks out of the hearing. Had a non-Congressional citizen showed this contempt for Congress, they would be in jail as we speak even if just to prove a point, but not Charlie.
This tactic of claiming poor before your judges is a favorite trick of politicians. However, they are stupid in all aspects of life and haven’t figured out it doesn’t work. ‘Blago’ tried it and is still using it, result…conviction. Our former Governor Ryan tried it, result…conviction. Representative Jefferson (D) LA, tried it, result…conviction. Rep. Reynolds (D) IL tried it, result …conviction. (Reynolds was charged with sexual misconduct with a minor he then bought off.)
The age-old and disproven legal tactic of a thief claiming poor, thereby showing the world he isn’t a thief or he would have money is getting old and tiresome. Something only gets old and tiresome after you are sick of hearing it over and over again. Chuck Rangel is playing the same card while making the entire Congress look ridiculous. If they give him a break, it is the ‘good old boys network’ if they do not I can see the race card just waiting to be played.
You learn in Law School, or should learn in Law School, you can disagree without being disagreeable. Politicians need to grasp this concept.
