Charlie Rangel: Obama answers not enough

By KEVIN ROBILLARD | 5/15/13 8:11 AM EDT

Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-N.Y.) said Wednesday that he believes President Barack Obama owes the American public explanations for both the seizure of Associated Press phone records by the Department of Justice and the IRS targeting of conservative groups.

“We have to give him an opportunity to root out any wrongdoing, whether it’s just negligence or criminal,” Rangel said. “But, for right now, to say that the president should be doubted? No. He has to come forward and give more of an answer than he has done.

My friends, how deep in the grease must one be before Charlie Rangel says "dude, you gotta tell 'em what really happened"?

When even a bald-faced lying thief like Rangel calls you out, you should realize you've been caught in the barnyard...

Oh, Charlie doesn't lack for balls, it's intelligence and integrity he lacks.

It reminds me of the time when Keith Richards said Amy Winehouse had a drug problem.
