Until March of this year, Charlie Rangel was the Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, putting him charge of the committee that writes tax law at the same time that he was failing to declare income and assets on his own tax returns.
So by your logic, no one in any of the fifty states should have been voting for Democrats because they were also choosing a thousand other things like Charlie Rangel being in charge of tax-related policy in the House.
Is that about right?
No, because you don't get the big count that there are 1,000 Joe Barton problems for every Charlie Rangel.
It's like finding a Jew-loving nice guy Nazi, and a racist jerk in the US army, and saying that's what to base your opinion on.
Joe Barton is the norm for Republicans. Charlie Rangel is the exception for Democrats.
To settle this, it'd be easy if you would put any effort into getting informed, like reading a book. I could name a book - I'd buy you the book. You won't read a book.
Instead, you'll post this sort of wrong nonsense, hiding behind the ignorance that if you don't understand who has the 1,000 problems, you can just make up the facts.
And oh by the way, assuming Rangel is a dishonest, thieving scumbag, who hurts the country more - a Barton selling out the public interest on energy, or tax cheating?
You don't understand the difference between trillions involved in corrupt policy compare to thousands involved in some personal tax issue.
I'm not defending Rangel at all - I'm attacking your lack of understanding of the real issues and problems with the Republicans.
