This time I didn't say it. I was challenged to the core on my first thread like this, Charlie weighing in though.....deserved its own thread.

Rangel: Obama Too Much Like Bush, Cheney

Embattled New York Rep. Charles Rangel is comparing President Obama to former Vice President Dick Cheney for their shared commitment to the Iraq War and oil in an interview with the New York Daily News.
Careful Charles...when I did this, this forum freaked out. Comparisons like the one you make here....wow. I NEVER thought I'd be agreeing with A Rangel but I'm on another thread I just started agreeing with Feinstein! I guess everyone but the disingenuous see it.

“I challenge anyone to tell me we aren't there because of the oil," said Rangel, who kicked off his re-election campaign for a 21st congressional term in Washington Heights Sunday.
Sorry Charlie, as everyone on this forum knows, Oldschool always expklained Iraq was primarity about oil, perhaps another member here will take your challenge.

"The lack of an honest explanation [for the war] is consistent with Bush and Cheney," he told the Daily News during an hour-long interview that touched on his ongoing ethics probe, relationship with the President and ability to get work done in Washington.
Same as the ol boss I think is how the song is sung.

A Korean War hero, Rangel criticized the Obama White House for staying in Bush-triggered wars, saying, "We are trying to buy our friends there ... stuff like that makes Cheney look good."
My...what a difference a year makes.

Get him, Charlie!
