RUSH: Maxine Waters. ‘An ethics report released Monday found that Rep. Maxine Waters probably broke conflict-of-interest rules in urging federal aid for a bank where her husband had served on the board and owned hundreds of thousands of dollars in stock.\u2019 Now, she said that she has not violated any House ethics rules, and the fact is she\u2019s violated the biggest House ethics rule, and that is, don\u2019t get caught. ‘Cause once you get caught, we can\u2019t help you. So now there\u2019s another black Congress member, black caucus member who\u2019s under the gun ethically and I got a story coming up in the stack about the rift between the CBC, Congressional Black Caucus, and Obama, and how he\u2019s really not one of them, he\u2019s not down for the struggle, he\u2019s not one of them. It\u2019s an amazing piece. (interruption) Well, they\u2019re mad that Charlie\u2019s being thrown under the bus. They\u2019re mad that Obama is helping to throw Charlie under the bus, like, ‘It\u2019s time to go with dignity.\u2019 The black caucus, if the truth be known, has never been happy with the administration when it comes to the jobs agenda. Black unemployment is skyrocketing. It\u2019s astronomically high. And they\u2019ve said two or three times publicly, ‘Mr. President, where\u2019s the laser-like focus on black jobs?\u2019 <\/p>\n

‘Pelosi (D-Calif.) echoed her stance on the Rangel matter, offering a muted response that suggested the Waters case showed that the ethics panel is doing its job of policing the House.\u2019 Waters called a meeting for minority banks but only one was discussed, and that was her husband\u2019s. ‘Twice in September 2008, Waters approached Financial Services Chairman Barney Frank (D-Mass.) to discuss OneUnited\u2019s pursuit of federal assistance. According to Frank\u2019s testimony, she acknowledged a potential conflict: ‘Sidney\u2019s been on the board.\u2019 Frank told the investigators that he did not want Waters involved in the OneUnited issue. ‘Stay out of it,\u2019 he said he told her.\u2019 But she didn\u2019t stay out of it. She saw to it that her husband\u2019s city got his skids greased. And here\u2019s an editorial in the Washington Post: ‘Maxine Waters\u2019 Questionable Ethics.\u2019 The minority-focused bank had a mixed record of lending to minorities. <\/p>\n

‘For all its connections to Ms. Waters and Mr. Frank, OneUnited was not necessarily the likeliest candidate for a bailout. It had a mixed record of lending to minority communities and had run afoul of regulators for buying its executives a Porsche.\u2019 So OneUnited, a bank focused on lending to minorities, actually wasn\u2019t. They were buying their executives Porsches, and that probably ticked off Sidney because I think Sidney owns a Mercedes dealership, or did. I think Maxine\u2019s husband owns a Mercedes dealership. Maybe it wasn\u2019t a Mercedes dealership, I thought it was in LA. But he owned something in the Caribbean. Meanwhile, the bank where he\u2019s on the board is buying Porsches with federal bailout money, and Obama and Pelosi are not exactly being supportive. Who can blame \u2019em for being upset? I mean both Maxine Waters and Charlie Rangel have got to see this as discrimination. What have they done that\u2019s any different from what 99% of all other Democrats have done? Barney Frank got away with destroying the housing market and then was allowed to write a piece of legislation to so-called fix it. Poof! Same thing with Chris Dodd. Well, Dodd got caught up in the Countrywide thing. He\u2019s kind of toast. But they at least let him have a swan\u2019s song on the financial regulatory reform bill. <\/p>\n

But I mean you gotta figure that Maxine and Charlie Rangel are thinking, ‘What did we do that 99% of the other Democrats have not been doing all these years?\u2019 That\u2019s it. If you want to know — H.R. got it — if you want to know, both Maxine and Charlie endorsed Hillary. I\u2019m not making it up and I\u2019m not giving you something just to have fun with. This is how Obama plays the game. Brother Barack does hold grudges. Brother Barack does have a long memory. Charlie Rangel and Maxine were vocal in their support of Hillary. Waters is now saying that her husband\u2019s bank, OneUnited, would have gotten a piece of the TARP bailout anyway, but how does she know? How does she figure that? We were told at the time that TARP money was gonna go to banks that were too big to fail. In fact, that\u2019s why Obama is at this very moment trying to sneak through a second bank bailout to bail out community banks like OneUnited. Kid you not. We have time for a couple audio sound bites. Maxine Waters, flashback, this is who she is, 2004 in Washington, Capitol Hill Financial Services Committee hearing.<\/p>\n

WATERS: During nearly a dozen hearings where, frankly, we were trying to fix something that wasn\u2019t broke. Mr. Chairman, we do not have a crisis at Freddie Mac, and in particular at Fannie Mae, under the outstanding leadership of Mr. Frank Raines.<\/p>\n

RUSH: And she was defending Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Here she does a great job, December 12th 2002 on an NBC show called Nachman.<\/p>\n

WATERS: He\u2019s still saying after all of these years that if this country had voted for Throm Sturmond (sic), we\u2019d be a lot better off and wouldn\u2019t have had all these problems. That\u2019s the same statement he made back in 1948.<\/p>\n

RUSH: She was piling on Trent Lott here for telling the joke at ‘Throm Sturmond\u2019s\u2019 birthday party. You heard it right, Maxine Waters, ‘If this country had voted for Throm Sturmond we\u2019d be a lot better off –‘ that\u2019s how she piled on the Trent Lott case. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Maxine Waters pronouncing it ‘Throm Sturmond\u2019 December 12, 2002. Earlier that year, July 8, 2002, another committee hearing on WorldCom accounting errors.<\/p>\n

WATERS: The analyst, Mr. Jack Grubman, from Salomon Barney Frank, with close ties to WorldCom — and, by the way, he refers to close ties and conflict of interest at Synergy — is the one who recommended WorldCom.<\/p>\n

RUSH: So there you have it, Maxine Waters, ‘Throm Sturmond\u2019 and ‘Salomon Barney Frank.\u2019 I have a question, a serious question: Are there going to be any black members of Congress left after Pelosi is done investigating them?<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: One more Maxine Waters sound bite, number 21 on the sound bite roster. This is from 1995. This is Maxine Waters on her high horse over Newt Gingrich\u2019s ethics.<\/p>\n

WATERS: The American public does not appreciate double standards. What\u2019s good for the goose is good for the gander.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Right.<\/p>\n

WATERS: No one should be so big, so important, so powerful they can violate the rules of this House and the laws of this country without suffering the consequences. Newt may be Speaker. However, he, too, must account for any and all wrongdoing.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Right. Right. Just like Trent Lott did for ‘Throm Sturmond\u2019 and the financial firm ‘Salomon Barney Frank.\u2019 And now Maxine Waters is the gander. Newt\u2019s the goose, Maxine\u2019s the gander, and Nancy Pelosi and Obama are throwing her overboard along with Charlie Rangel. Now, here\u2019s the story. This is from the Washington Post. It\u2019s Chris Cillizza and I don\u2019t know if this is published or on the blog, I\u2019m not sure which, but it doesn\u2019t matter. ‘Obama vs. the Congressional Black Caucus? — President Obama\u2019s relationship with members of the Congressional Black Caucus is being tested over a series of high-profile incidents, the latest of which is the ethics investigation into New York Democratic Rep. Charlie Rangel. On Friday, Obama told CBS News that he believed it was time for Rangel to end his carer ‘with dignity\u2019, adding: ‘I think Charlie Rangel served a very long time and served his constituents very well, but these allegations are very troubling.\u2019 A Politico story quoted a person close to Rangel saying that the congressman ‘doesn\u2019t give a damn about what the president thinks about this.\u2019 And New York Gov. David Paterson, who is black and whose father came up in New York politics with Rangel, seemed to offer a thinly veiled criticism of Obama in a radio interview over the weekend. Paterson said he was ‘especially surprised when people from our own community\u2019 jump to conclusions before all the facts have been aired ‘because we\u2019ve been the greatest victim of it for centuries.”<\/p>\n

Now, remember, the White House tried to tell Paterson not to run for reelection. It\u2019s not just Maxine Waters and Charlie Rangel. Obama told Paterson to take a hike. Paterson didn\u2019t take a hike. Before that it was Carl McCall. Bill Clinton and Andrew Cuomo told Carl McCall to take a hike. And then who was it down in Georgia? They told Maynard Jackson to go fly a kite. ‘According to sources familiar with the CBC, Obama\u2019s comments were seen as an unnecessary piling-on of Rangel … Another member of the CBC — Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) — will also face a congressional trial on ethics allegations this fall. ‘The CBC has a very protective attitude toward CBC members who face ethics troubles,\u2019 said Alabama Democratic Rep. Artur Davis, who is black.\u2019 Yep. I\u2019d say so. They got their hands full. They circle the wagons around fellow members. Hey, let\u2019s not forget Harold Ford. Obama and the Democrats told Harold Ford to go pound sand when he was thinking running for the Senate in New York. They want Gillibrand to stay there because she\u2019s a rubber stamp for Chuck-U Schumer. <\/p>\n

‘Some CBC members believe the organization ‘should observe some code of silence\u2019 when it comes to ethics charges against their membership,\u2019 and Obama is breaking the code by going out there and suggesting that Charlie has served, past tense, with dignity, and it\u2019s time to move on. Eighty years old, he got away with a lot for a long time now, and it\u2019s time to retire and enjoy it all: Four rent-controlled apartments, a condo in the Dominican he\u2019s not paying taxes on. Charlie, go enjoy it all. You\u2019ve earned it. Obama didn\u2019t stand up for Burris, either. Remember Roland Burris from Illinois? Obama dumped him overboard, the Democrats didn\u2019t want Roland Burris. That\u2019s why I say are there going to be any black members left in Congress after Pelosi and Obama get through investigating them all? And don\u2019t think they\u2019re not thinking it. Pretty soon the CBC\u2019s going to change its name to Congressional Black Caucasians instead of Congressional Black Caucus \u2019cause there aren\u2019t going to be any of them left. <\/p>\n

‘While the Rangel back-and-forth dominated the headlines over the weekend, it is only the latest example of the CBC and the Obama Administration not seeing entirely eye to eye of late.\u2019 Again this is Chris Cillizza in the Washington Post. ‘To wit: CBC members made no secret of their unhappiness with the firing (and attempted re-hiring) of Agriculture Department employee Shirley Sherrod over allegedly racist remarks that, upon further inspection, appeared anything but. In an interview with Essence magazine, CBC Chairwoman Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) said the Obama Administration ‘didn\u2019t wait like we did, didn\u2019t do their due diligence, and reacted to an unfortunate right-wing attack on a great woman.” That\u2019s right. Obama fired Shirley Sherrod on the word of Andrew Breitbart, and the CBC is not happy. Can you believe that? Can you believe Andrew Breitbart puts a video post up there and the White House: ‘Oh, my God, get rid of the woman.\u2019 It\u2019s not hunky-dory there. <\/p>\n

‘Florida Rep. Alcee Hastings (D) told the St. Petersburg Times that he was ‘a little bit put out by the mixed signals that are coming from the White House\u2019 regarding the Senate candidacy of Rep. Kendrick Meek (D-Fla.).\u2019 Kendrick Meek is a black Democrat going for the Senate seat in Florida and it appears that the Obama regime is prepared to back Charlie Crist. It appears that way. The White House is trying to say, ‘No, no, no, we\u2019re staying out of this.\u2019 But Crist has called \u2019em up and what makes this funny is Crist just weeks ago was trying to convince all the Republicans how conservative he was. Now he\u2019s trying to get the White House endorsement for his Senate run against Marco Rubio, and Alcee Hastings, who knows a thing or two about crime from both sides of it, from the commission side and the judging side, Alcee Hastings, ‘I don\u2019t like what they\u2019re doing to my boy Kendrick,\u2019 and Kendrick Meek is meek. You don\u2019t hear about him. He\u2019s minding his own business out there; he\u2019s been very dutiful; he\u2019s followed all the rules. Well, he endorsed Hillary, too. I mean, if you dig deep here, and you don\u2019t really have to dig too deep, you\u2019ll find out that a lot of the CBC members under investigation and being thrown overboard, voted, endorsed, campaigned for Hillary Rodman Clinton. <\/p>\n

Alvin Greene, this guy in South Carolina, I mean the voters might have thought it was Al Green, the gospel singer, but still he got 60 some odd percent of the vote. And the Democrats everywhere, from Dick Harpootlian all the way up to the White House were trying to throw this guy overboard. Meanwhile, we\u2019re supposedly the racists here on this side of the aisle. And before it\u2019s all said and done, as I said the CBC is not going to be the Congressional Black Caucus. It\u2019s going to be the Congressional Caucasian Caucus, the CCC. And we\u2019re still not through with the Chris Cillizza piece. ‘Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), a former CBC chairman, told the New York Times over the weekend that ‘much of the House is in a wait-and-see mode to see how helpful the president will be,\u2019 adding. ‘He has to come into these districts with the same gusto and the same sense of hope that he came into the election with,” meaning is he gonna campaign for CBC members. <\/p>\n

‘Sources familiar with the relationship between Obama and the CBC point to three major causes of tension: a generational divide, a lack of relationships and pure politics.\u2019 Well, now, this generational divide, you know what that means. He ain\u2019t down for the struggle. He does not have slave blood. He does not have any cotton in his past. He\u2019s a ‘Magic Negro.\u2019 He is exactly what David Ehrenstein said he was in the LA Times. Generational divide. He couldn\u2019t find Selma on a map even after they took him there. Never been beat upside the head while crossing the bridge in Selma, nobody ever turned a fire hose on him. In fact, the way was paved for brother Barack. So that\u2019s the generational divide, lack of relationships, meaning, he doesn\u2019t hang with them. He hangs with the homeys, but not with these guys. He\u2019s not hanging with these guys. These guys are over in the hood. Barack is up in the White House eating the Kobe beef, CBC doing barbecue. There is no relationship friendship. And then there\u2019s pure politics. <\/p>\n

Now, this Chris Cillizza, ‘Taking the generation factor first, there is clearly a divide even within the CBC between older African American politicians who tended to put race front and center in their campaigns and a younger group — of which Davis, Obama, Meek and former Rep. Harold Ford Jr. (D-Calif.) are a part — that tends to de-emphasize race in the context of their campaigns.\u2019 Deemphasize, Obama, deemphasize race? Ha-ha. Not true. ‘Don\u2019t forget that Obama directly challenged the African American political chain of command when he ran and lost — badly — to Rep. Bobby Rush in a 2000 Democratic primary for Illinois\u2019 1st district.\u2019 Now, the political thing here is this. ‘What\u2019s less clear than the ‘why\u2019 behind the tensions between Obama and the CBC is the ‘what now?\u2019 One party strategist familiar with the CBC painted the following doomsday scenario: ‘You have a bunch of ‘Front Liners and Blue Dogs — predominantly white members — calling for Rangel and Waters to step down, and the CBC digs in and defends them and goes after [Obama] and the party for not adequately defending them. This causes big drop in enthusiasm among African Americans for Democrats (coupled with bitterness with the Sherrod incident), and they stay home.” They\u2019re not gonna stay home. Stay home for who? <\/p>\n

‘It\u2019s not clear, however, whether dissatisfaction toward Obama within the CBC means broader dissatisfaction within the black community. Each member has a political base, but there are real questions in the minds of some party strategists whether the collected political power of the CBC can sway black voters nationwide in any meaningful way.\u2019 There isn\u2019t going to be any political power before Pelosi gets finished. I\u2019m trying to help you guys in the CBC. I know you don\u2019t think I\u2019m on our side but I\u2019m going to tell you, you see it, you may not want to admit it but they\u2019re gunning for you. Charlie Rangel, Ways and Means, bye-bye, William Jefferson, Democrat Louisiana? All he did, 90 grand in the freezer, big deal, that\u2019s nothing compared to what Rostenkowski used to do, and he hung around until the old folks wanted him gone. But the House didn\u2019t kick him out. Maxine Waters, some chump change through her husband\u2019s bank. I mean, for crying out loud, Chuck Schumer was allowed to take down a bank and he\u2019s still there. <\/p>\n

Pelosi and Obama offering no words of support, no words of encouragement. Now Pelosi\u2019s out there doing the okey-dokey trying to bamboozle the CBC, trying to hoodwink \u2019em while Obama\u2019s out there saying that the Republicans are trying to do the bamboozling. The bamboozling is being done by Pelosi. To paraphrase Reverend Wright, \u2019cause he was right here: ‘Obama ain\u2019t never been called a Negro.\u2019 But the CBC guys have been. Well, in their lives they have been. Obama in his life hasn\u2019t been. I mean we\u2019re paraphrasing Reverend Wright. This is a serious, serious thing here. When you have the Washington Post writing about this, and when you have various members of the powerful political operative media debating what the outcome of this is going to be, it falls upon me to put at all in perspective. It\u2019s very simple. When Pelosi is finished there won\u2019t be a Congressional Black Caucus. It\u2019s going to be the Congressional Caucasian Caucus, and that\u2019s it on the Democrat side. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
