The Charles Rangel Saga Continues

The saga continues. Read the article below.The community may want Charlie gone, but who is there to replace him?Again, the community needs to begin to have earnest and productive discussions about who it feels should replace this albatross around the Harlem's neck.The discussions do not need to focus on just one person, having several choices would lead to competitive and revealing political

More Shenanigans from Chanles Rangel.

2008-12-06T17:09:00.023-05:00

Charlie is now involving more of his family in his shenanigans. At one time he tried to blame his wife, that is, tried to say his wife was the responsible one for managing the finances associated with the unreported rental income from a luxury villa in the Dominican Republic. Now, apparently, he has been overpaying his son for web site work. Read the articles below from the Wall Street Journal

World Aids Day and Harlem

2008-12-01T20:23:00.009-05:00

Today is World AIDS Day.Wanted to take a moment to remind the Village of the importance of this day.Many Harlem Residents have been touched by this disease. They have been touched either as one who has been infected by the AIDS virus or as one who is a relative, friend and neighbor of one infected by AIDS.It is not a day to judge but to understand and to care.Do something positive for someone

Seniority appears to be taking its last few breaths in Washington, DC

2008-11-30T15:46:00.008-05:00

The seniority argument for keeping Charles Rangel in congress is going by the wayside under the leadership of Nancy Pelosi, speaker of the House of Representatives. Take a read on the following article posted in the Capitol Briefing section of the Washington Post newspaper on November 20, 2008. It appears that Seniority is not just dying but may be dead altogether.Community! We must be about

More mess, more mess, more mess. Charlie just keeps operating as usual. It does not matter to him if anyone (15th Congressional District) is watching or not.

Nightmare on Beacon Street

2008-09-20T17:25:00.013-04:00

Strolling along in the Harlem Village the other day, saw concerned citizens of Harlem running and screaming through the street. Some were crying and yelling out, “Stop using the Village.” “Stop manipulating the Village”.The fingers of many of them were pointing to a news stand. Some Harlemites walked over to the stand to see what was going on. They looked at the newspapers that were laid out.

Craig Schley's Parasitic Ways Continue

2008-09-15T15:16:00.009-04:00

Craig Schley of Vote People for Change continues his parasitic ways.During the weekend this opportunistic carpetbagger defaced Malcolm X Boulevard in Central Harlem with posters of his congressional campaign.The Manipulative Model's posters are so close to the look of Obama's presidential campaign posters that one has to take a second look to realize that it is not an Obama poster offering change

Memories of Jim Jones & Craig Schley

Upon reflecting on Craig Schley, the Executive Director of Vote People (aka Vote of the Everyday People) as a congressional candidate, Jim Jones, the charismatic Preacher of the People’s Temple comes to mind. The followers of both men, pounce mercilessly on those who question the motives of their leadership. Unfortunately Jim Jones’ devotees followed their leader into physical death by drinking

Charlie Tries To Explain It All!

Just to keep readers up to date!Charlie tries to explain it all while the Republicans (and some Democrats from his own 15th Congressional District) are snapping at his "Ways and Means" Committee Chairmanhip heels.Hard to run at 70+ years old. Where is the Community (that you sold out) when you need them?Watching you fall Charlie and trying to keep an opportunistic carpetbagger like Craig Schley

Hope he paid for this web site!!

2008-09-09T23:29:00.002-04:00

Well the "Model User" now has a campaign (?) web site. About 10 months after he set out to manipulated the Harlem Community into thinking that he really cared about them and not his ambitions.He presently uses a web site for votepeople.net that he does not have official rights to. Hope Craig Schley paid for this web site. Interestingly, the page for votepeopleforchange is still a holder page

The Harlem Wanna "B" Craig Schley is now sending Charlie Rangel "Wolf Tickets". How does he have the bravado to do this? One can do this if one is a wolf, that is, a balding wolf in sheep’s clothing. One good slap from Rangel and this Blood Sucker (Isn't that what wolfs are in scary movies) will go running and crying back into the abyss he came from.Community, can we not do better than this

Charlie! Why did you put us in this predicament?

2008-09-05T14:59:00.002-04:00

Question: Charles Rangel, why did you not resign earlier this year? Or 10 – 20 years ago. Why did you let it get to this point? Why did you not decide to run again? Why did you put the Harlem Community in a “trick bag” and in “harms way”?What should have happened: Charlie Rangel indicates no later than January 2008 that he will no longer run for office as the Congressman for the 15th

Hi & The Village of Harlem Must Be More Careful In The Future

2008-05-15T20:53:00.001-04:00

This blog is established for all those in the Village of Harlem, New York City who are just plain tired of seeing the Village used as a stepping stone for the obscenely greedy and blatantly ambitious moochers. Usually both behaviors – greed – ambition – rear their ugly head in the same person or persons.This is one of the reasons why the Village was so manipulated during the recent 125th Street
