maybe the Obambam and Joey Biden will pin a medal for Patriotism on the Rangels chest.....he paid his taxes he's been hiding from the Irs....... as he laughs in OUR FACE..........
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Rep. Charles Rangel wrote six checks for about $10,800 in back taxes and then penned an open letter to New Yorkers on Friday, saying he has done nothing dishonorable and is the target of a GOP "guerrilla war."
Rep. Charles Rangel speaks to reporters on Capitol Hill Monday.
Rangel, the dean of the New York congressional delegation, has faced a string of embarrassing revelations: He didn't pay taxes on rental income for a beach house in the Dominican Republic; he used three rent-stabilized apartments in Harlem, including one for a campaign office; he used his congressional stationery to drum up private donations to a college center named after him.
He ended up writing a number of checks to cover taxes due on his 2004, 2005 and 2006 returns, related to the unreported rental income, said his chief of staff, George Dalley.
The federal government tab was $4,803, according to Rangel's accountants, and he wrote checks totaling $6,022 to New York state. The state figure includes a small percentage owed to New York City authorities.
