He is senior democrat on the House Ways and Means committee, so maybe this is why, perhaps he just has pull with the press...... <p></p><i></i>

Thank you for that info Jeff. You are something else.<br><br>I don't trust Rangel either. He speaks very well, but out of both sides of his mouth. <p></p><i></i>

Rangel = much easier to discredit than conyers, so if it's framed as coming from him so much the better for you-know-who. <p></p><i></i>
