Reader comment on:
Come Home, Mr. Rangel

Submitted by Mits Yamamoto, Nov 13, 2006 14:16

So where's the apology? And why are Mississippians so passive about his comments? How about the media? If that was the comment made by the Republicans, you wouldn't hear the end of it until the resignation was submitted. Maybe there's a truth in what Rangel said. Mississippians don't have much pride, pride of ownership to insist on Rangel's public apology and resignation.
