Come Home, Mr. Rangel - November 13, 2006 - The New York Sun: "f one wants to get a glimpse of why it's just impossible to stay cross with Rep. Charles Rangel, feature the furor that erupted over the weekend over his comments in respect of Mississippi. The day after the election, the next chairman of the Powerful Tax-Writing House Ways and Means Committee was heard to say,' Mississippi gets more than their fair share back in federal money, but who the hell wants to live in Mississippi?' Mississippians were livid, and took to the pages of local newspapers to mark their displeasure. In the matter of enthusiasm for where we live, we're with Mr. Rangel all the way. We've always had a soft spot for New York."
