Embattled Rep. Charles Rangel (D-N.Y.) said Saturday it would be un-American of him to resign in the face of a looming ethics trial.
The Hill first reported Friday night that Rep. Betty Sutton (D-Ohio) had called on Rangel to step down, the first sitting House Democrat to do so.
The New York Daily News reported Saturday that Rangel, speaking to reporters at Harlem Hospital, brushed off the call to give up his seat.
"Well, it wouldn't be the American thing to do," he said. "I think I owe it to the process to find out first what the investigative committee finds out."
So just how much of our tax money do you plan on use to "fight" your soon to be eviction? I mean come on Charlie! Even democrats are saying you should step down... so I guess I Should ask Nancy... that "Most ethical congress" claim.. does that still even apply any more? Nope, didn't think so.
