Legacy of Charles Rangel: All Is Well That Ends Well in the Well!

By John W. Lillpop

In a breath-taking instance of doing the right thing despite all the odds, the House of Representatives censured Charles Rangel, the teary-eyed tax cheat from Harlem, following his conviction on 11 counts violating House ethics.

What a sweet victory it was for the little people of America as Nancy Pelosi, Shrieker of the House, was forced to read aloud the details of censure to the unrepentant Rangel as he stood helplessly in the well.

Despite his mindless and endless moaning, groaning, apologizing, and weeping, followed by more mindless moaning and groaning, it was obvious the rotund cheat was seething with the anger of a spurned elitist who, after 40 years of abuse, was finally forced to account for his outrageous corruption.

Still, Rangel paid a small price for not paying taxes for 17 years. That offense would have caused less-well-connected men to spend years in prison.

Thank goodness the Charles Rangel story is over.

And with the bloated Democrat disgraced by censure, it can be truthfully said that, with respect to Charles Rangel, “All Is Well That Ends Well in the Well!”
