Pretty much the only thing the Politico is good for these days is DC gossip,and I found this tidbit today. (they say it's an oldie, but I think it's a goodie I've never heard before)

Afterward, he (Rangel) stopped by a young Democratic club event where he repeated -- and we're paraphrasing here -- one of his old favorites:

"I often get aggrieved with President Bush -- the things he does, things he says, but one thing I have to remember is to give him a break in my thoughts because this man all by himself has totally disproved the myth of white supremacy."

And the crowd went wild.

To quote Mr. 5th Blogoversary Atrios.... heh indeedy.
