Democratic Party Infighting Begins!

Liberal Democrats have an entitlement mentality. We all know it. This mentality extends from a belief that they have the right to take money from one person and “redistribute” it to another all the way up to believing that they are entitled to have a position because they have held it previously and is, in their eyes, well theirs.

Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-N.Y.) accused House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of having a role in Thursday’s defeat of Rep. John Dingell (D-Mich.) by Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Calif.) for control of the House Energy and Commerce Committee.

“I assume that not playing a role is playing a role,” Rangel, Chairman of the House Committee on Ways and Means, told the Washington Post after the Democratic Caucus voted to oust Dingell.

“It’s just been buried,” Rangel said of the long-standing principle of seniority for Democratic leadership in the House. Rangel had backed Dingell’s bid to retain his chairmanship.

Oh puh-lease Charlie! It’s not like you had a Democrat replaced by a Republican – you had one Democrat replace another! Regardless of what you might believe Mr. Rangel, no one is entitled to any position in the Congress. That is why people vote!

In four years if, hopefully, Obama looses the Presidential election are you going to whine because you feel that he should be entitled to remain President simply because he had been President previously?  Just like you are doing now?
