Charlie Rangel Was For the Draft, Before He Was Against It

It looks like the scare tactics to win young voters have been quashed.

Charlie Rangel's quote is priceless if you break it down:

It is a prostitution of the legislative process to take a serious issue and use it for political purposes on the eve of the election just to say they are against the draft,' said Representative Charles B. Rangel, Democrat of New York, the author of the bill, who ended up voting against it.

The first part:
It is a prostitution of the legislative process to take a serious issue and use it for political purposes on the eve of the election...

It is indeed. So why did you write the bill Charlie?

The second part:
...just to say they are against the draft,

Charlie, they are against the draft, they're not just saying it. They have been and forever will be.

The last part:
...said Representative Charles B. Rangel, Democrat of New York, the author of the bill, who ended up voting against it.

Who sponsors a bill and then votes against it? Probably someone who has been exposed as trying to manipulate the young voters of this country.
