Changing of the Guard. - The Firearms Forum

Just heard on ABC news that there has been a "Changing of the Guard" in a Congressional Committee where Charlie Rangle has been forced out of the leadership because of corruption.

What happened, did they find a more corrupt Congresscritter to replace him?

I thought that Changing of the Guard was supposed to be an orderly transfer of authority from one honorable man to another. Seems to be a shortage of those inside the beltway.

Rangle must have realy messed up to be replaced when the Dems. hold massive majorities in both houses of Congress and the Presidency. Wonder what they aren't telling us that he did. I haven't heard of anything that many other Congresscritter or White house staffers and Czars haven't done.

The answer is Yes, they did. The nutcase replacing him is even wackier than Charlie R. Go google this guy and you'll find some real strange comments.

John Adams wrote: One useless man is a shame. Two useless men are lawyers, and three or more useless men are a congress. It seems strange that even as far back as John Adams' time congress was looked upon with disdain. And to think we have perpetuated this folly and still managed to become the most successful and prosperous nation on earth. Vote 'em all out. It's time for a new beginning.
