Charlie Rangel, who said he doesn't want to see the debate about Medicaid spending turn into a "food fight," seemed ready for one on Saturday in Long Island City, where he was awarded the the Kung Hwa Medal by the Korean government.

Grace Meng is still around ?

Anyway, Grace, remember, you committed fraud by carrying those petitions and you committed a felony when you voted in Flushing while actually living somewhere else (actually a felony each and every time you voted.)

You WILL NEVER run again.

Because if you do, the Queens District Attorney will indict you for the fraud you committed.

The five years statue of limitations will not be up. Do you think the people at Queens County are that stupid ? You signed the stipulation, didnt you ?

That will be the last time Jimmy Meng ever appears in a picture involving the Korean consulate. Ellen Young is on the phone with them right now.

And of course, brain surgeon Grace Meng messing it up for her family again.

Hey Grace, the phony address you have taken isnt going to help you much.

You dont think that private investigators can still tape you when you return to your Long Island residence every night ?

or did you and your rich husband give up your JAP lifestyles and move into a fourth floor walk up in downtown flushing ?

If you lived in Flushing, and someone who claims they wanted to represent the district refused to live in the same neighborhood you and your family did because they thought it was grimy, you would be pissed too.

Also, the Meng scandal in regard to voter registration was found to be CRIMINAL.

The Queens DA announced indictments. And what exactly was the price that Grace Meng paid ?

Give me a break.

So I guess you think that the Times and Daily news editorial boards are being to hard on Dr. Eugene also ?

Grace Meng didnt even admit she was breaking the law.

She had to be taken into court, and under oath forced to recognize that she had voted illegaly, that she had carried petitions illegaly and that she didnt live in old grimy Flushing but instead resided in a mansion with her husband on Long Island.

And she admitted it because she was told that a complaint would be filed with the Bar Association and that charges of forging petitions under a false address could result in either being dis-barred or sanctions.

THATS the reason she dropped out.

So, NO, I dont have any sympathy for her or her father whose camapign workers were just indicted last month.

Give me a break.

If she thinks she is going to pop her head up and no one is going to point out her wrongdoings, youre crazy.

She is the elitist type who wont live with all the working people in Flushing but wants to represent them so she could go around doing photo-ops. I think thats horrible.

All of the above is public record. Grace Meng did not drop out because her petitions were being challenged. That happens all the time. She dropped out because she was using an illegal address, which by the way, she has decided to repeat. She now claims she lives in Flsuhing again and there is a file being built on her, AGAIN. And the DA still has a VERY, VERY active case. But her and her dad Jimmy just cant seem to understand that this kind of crap doesnt fly. She deserves to be pointed out for what she is.

OK, Queens County Dems, stop the thuggish threats and bullyism. Grace Meng merely posted a pix. You guys excluded the Hispanics-see the Daily News article March 11 by Albor Ruiz, beat up the Asians, terrorize the blacks, and slight other minorities. Time for your bullyism to stop!
