Charlie could catch a break
 Rep. Charles Rangel is likely to be cleared on one of a half-dozen ethics charges, it was reported yesterday.I'll be surprised if it's not all of them... Rangel and four other members of the Congressional Black Caucus may be exonerated of allegations of rule violations stemming from a 2008 trip to the Caribbean for a conference, according to the Capitol Hill newspaper Roll Call. The ethics panel announced in June that it planned to investigate the group, after The Post reported that the names of corporate sponsors of the conference were featured prominently throughout the events. Members of Congress are barred from accepting multiday trips from companies that employ lobbyists. Posted by: Fred 2009-11-07 |
