Funny guy. Witty and intelligent. But corrupt.

I don't care that he talks funny. I don't care if he's gay. I don't even care about the prostitution thing. (It should be legal anyway.)

Sorry, Barney... you sucked up to Fannie and Freddie. You and all other politicians bought by such corporations need to go.

what_now: which had nothing to do with the housing crisis, and anyone who still think it did is either lying to themselves or literally too stupid to breath in and out.

I didn't say they did have anything to do with the housing crisis. But they are corrupt corporations. They do bad things to people. And Barney Frank is wrong for defending them and being influenced by them.

I wish I had what you're smoking and I live in Oregon. This is one of the most destructive individuals on American structure of all time. Good goddam riddance.

I think I got this.


Produce evidence Gary.

Ah.... *inhales deeply*

Breathe it in folks. Enjoy the aroma. Let it tickle your nostrils.

Pure, industrial-grade derp. But not just derp- no no! Oh sure, it's high-intensity, concentrated derp. But it's not just that. It's exquisite and luxurious; the very essence of derp.

Intoxicating.

Jackson Herring: The thing about Barney Frank... it just reinforces the amazing fact that some people have a completely different perception of facts and reality.

The thing about Barney really...is that despite being an obnoxious, bleating, farting, speech-impedimented, possible pedo, etc., etc., he could and would tell off a bloated and reality-detached GOP for the same reasons so many people hated him - because he was a no-class, funny-looking, gay Jew from Brooklyn by way of Boston.

Do you see any Democrat speaking out like this today who can't check at least one of those boxes? No. You don't. The party has lost its compass.

I got Obama's back, but honestly, he can't bring the shame and outrage like a Jew from New York, and he's suffered for it.

The "Franklin scandal" (google it) was a supposed child prostitution ring that Frank was implicated in about 1989. Don't know if there's anything to it or not.

Or just check the Wiki (new window).

Well it makes sense that you brought it up then.

Well, fark me for being insufficiently partisan!

Let me go on the record and say that I don't like farking little boys. If I had my way, nobody would do it. But if it's in the best interests of the country, I'll step up and do my share.

what_now: the housing crisis

Stop enabling the chronically unemployed.
We've proven that anyone, regardless of race, creed, or color can rent.
Hell. We've driven the entire planet's human economy into the crapper letting anyone, regardless of race, creed, or color get an underwater loan.

Get a job, find a place to buy, and stick to it.
Move to WHERE THE JERBS ARRE!

Stop being poor.

A corrupt and immoral loser who subscribed to the age old school of resorting to personal attacks when confronted on his BS.

I think Barney and Roger Ebert are probably a cute couple in a parallel universe.

This.

I think the dems threw him under the bus with the redistricting. He clearly was against it and even whined about losing his fisherman constituency.

good riddance farter.

I hopw it include the parts where he had a prostitution ring in his house and the part where he slept with an executive from Fannie Mae. Because those were hilarious.

I like the part where you can ignore both reality AND facts to make posts like that.

A gay man being catty? Say it ain't so.

RS: "Well. I was on my way to this gay gypsy bar mitzvah for the disabled, when I suddenly thought, "Gosh. The Third Reich's a bit rubbish. I think I'll kill the Führer." Who's with me?

First thing I thought of.

/Prolly shouldn't try farking and watching DW reruns at the same time.

Would definitely watch any program either hosted by Frank or with him as a regular panelist discussing politics and money.

Like a rat from a sinking ship.
