Is this another example of "too big to fail?"

"But if Pelosi decides to make a move against Rangel, she could find serious resistance from the Congressional Black Caucus, an influential force within the House Democratic Caucus. When Pelosi forced Rep. William Jefferson (D-La.), an African-American, off the Ways and Means panel in early 2006, it led to a huge fight with the CBC, and any battle over Rangel’s gavel would be much tougher.

By ignoring the ethics AND the laws of this country, Pelosi and the Dems are in effect saying that the Congressional Black Caucus is running the entire House, and therefore running America. Is that what the Democrats want us to think? That the Congressional Black Caucus is filled with hoodlums and criminals???? WHAT else are Americans to think?

... she could find serious resistance from the Congressional Black Caucus, an influential force within the House Democratic Caucus.
