Amen, Roland Martin.

I know JJP posters alerted me to this in the Open Thread, but Roland’s headline made me LMAO.

Charlie Rangel to speak at DNC? Hell to the naw!

Politico.com is reporting that confidants of Harlem Congressman Charlie Rangel are not happy ... Continue reading »

  • Once we elect President Obama, we should commence to cleaning house within the CBC. I don't want my fine Congresswoman, Donna Edwards, drowning in a sea of foolishness!

    Rangel, Jackson Lee and Tubbs Jones were silent when Billary was wallowing in the mud. I can't forget Jackson Lee, during Tavis Smiley's SOTBU this year, was going on about sentencing disparities between crack and powder cocaine and retroactivity (lessening sentences) when her girl was planning to attack Obama for supporting retroactivity.

    But the person who absolutely took the cake with her behavior was Tubbs Jones. This woman was a JUDGE and she did not comport herself with dignity. No, she--along with that billionaire Stepin Fetchit Bob Johnson--acted like a sterotypical fool. I just cringed at her behavior.

    They should consider themselves lucky they will be in the convention hall, as far as I'm concerned.
  • APeach: I sure wish that I knew what Tubb-Jones & Jackson-Lee were promised in order to come out of the "FIELD" into the "HOUSE"!

    T-J: Secretary of Hankie washing/drying! ?? :>) :>)

    J-L: Secretary of Hankie folding, counting and putting in the proper "Hankie Drawer!" - NEATLY!! :>) :>)

    Any other ideas??
  • LOL! Stop it! Stop it! Oh, I can barely type.

    Maybe BJ for Secy of Lawn Jockey repair.
  • Charlie Rangel is the black Joe Lieberman. he just flips on everything to the point of irritating people.
  • "Talk to the hand, Charlie."

    ..Word.
  • In a back alley beauty shop, Stephanie Tubbs Jones is complaining to the shampoo girl that Barama ain't all that anyway and dat's why ain't nobody gonna vote for him or his black ass lips.
  • Maybe someone should ask why these sistas are so anti-Obama.

    I've speculated on this before; they offered poon, he turned it down, and you know what is said about "a woman scorned".

    In their cases, try a few sistas "scorned."

    As for Champagne Charlie, why in the hell would he, or any of them who dogged Obama, expect any favors from him?

    "Talk to the Hand, Charlie" is spot on target. If any of these fools dogged out Obama during the primaries in favor of Missy Hillary, they proved themselves to be House Negroes of the highest order, and Obama owes them NOTHING.
  • I don't feel that Rangel dogged O. I don't recall him making any anti-Obama statements. He supported hrc (as long as he could) because he knows her & they are homies (NY). I would prefer to see this story minimized and I hate to see YET ANOTHER SHOW OF DIVISION AMONG FAMILY in the media. I'm sorry that Rangel isn't more understanding of the circumstances (if the story is true). I also wonder why Michelle's brother is speaking. I disagree with that. Well, maybe not. I'm sure he'll give a better endorsement than bill clinton.
  • Michelle's brother is introducing her before she speaks that's all. And yes Rangel supported Clinton well past the shelf life had expired. So he could keep his rent-controlled apartments and numerous earmarks I'm sure. He didn't do anything to earn him a national speaking spot -- that's rewarding bad behavior.
  • Didn't Rangel call Obama "stupid" during the primaries?
  • LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh listen...I think she just said "and I can't stand that michelle either"........LOL
  • She probably said "his wife need to do somepin' with her hair and dem eyebrows, she ain't all that either and she got a stank attitude!"
  • "She needs to get her hair done, it's lookin' all dry with her nappy edges, just like Condelezza. Thinks she's better then somebody. Girllll". I can hear it now.
  • That is exactly what her fool behind is saying...I have the unfortunate pleasure having to deal with her out and about in my parents fair city of Shaker Heights...

    Ugh...she deserves every minute of this.I'm so tired of politcians--particularly those of the brown persuassion wagging around their title like it entitles them to be jack asses.
  • If he cuts out the perm, I say let him talk. It would be worth it. lol
  • These Coons For Clinton have a lot of nerve trying to make demands.
  • Sepia: "Coons For Clinton" Great one!!!! LOL LOL! :>) :>) :>)
  • ROFLMAO - "Coons for Clinton"

    Cue Banjo, Spoons and Washboard, now!
  • I don't think TubbyJones should even be invited to the convention. She has some nerve.
  • pjamma: Does she have ta be invited? Oh wait . . she is a delegate-huh!! Yuck!! :>) :>)
  • "And I never had a bad dance since..." except with Obama dissmed me (Sorry Charlie!)
  • I've got the crem dela crem,it is Rangel,Jackson Lee,and Bob Johnson all belong to 1 800 RENT A COON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOL
  • kalagenesis: LOL! :>) :>) :>)
  • aha ha ha ha. Those attack dogs are getting exactly what they deserve.
