Charlie Rangel (D-NY) - House Ways & Means Chairman
Representative Charlie Rangel has had his hand in the cookie jar for many a year. It's been one of the worst kept secrets in Washington. But it looks as if an ethics committee finding that he violated House rules by accepting a Caribbean junket may cost him his gavel.
Several members of the House are now asking that he step down as Chairman of the powerful House Ways and Means committee. Not surprisingly, Nancy Pelosi continues to defend Rangel for some unknown reason, but that may change if caucus unrest grows.
You've got to love the Democrats. They came into the majority claiming they would clean up corruption that barely existed, yet all they have done is create more corruption than existed before. Just look at Charlie, he's the tax evasion king who oversees the tax code - what a deal!
