Tax Cheat Charlie Rangel Knighted
By Wyatt Earp | November 2, 2009
Doesn’t it figure? Jamaica, the world’s leader in pot-smoking, decided to honor one of the most corrupt congressman in American history. They must have graduated to crack. Jammie Wearing Fool has the hilarity:
You must be kidding, mon.
Embattled Harlem Congressman Charles Rangel can’t fill out a tax form, but he’s now a knight — at least in Jamaica.
The Democratic Prince of Pork — who owns valuable tracts of land, some of them off the books — was inducted last week into the Order of Jamaica, the Caribbean commonwealth’s highest distinction and the equivalent of knighthood.
JWF has the quote of the day at the end of the post:
In his honor, they had Jerk Pork for dinner.
Heh, nicely played.

Old NFO – Probably enough to cover all of his legal fees.

A Jamaican Knight? That’s quite an honor. I think it ranks just below “Italian opera house usher” in the grand order of things.

Making Rangel a knight ….What is next? The Peace Prize for Obama? Oh, wait a minute.

MeToo – D’oh!
