First Openly Gay Congressman Barney Frank Describes Himself as 'Pot Smoking Atheist'

Former Massachusetts Congressman Barney Frank, the nation's first openly gay member of Congress and liberal darling, implied in a recent interview that he is also a "pot-smoking atheist."

Frank, a Democrat who served as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Massachusetts from 1981 to 2013, made his comments last Friday while serving as a guest on a talk show hosted by Bill Maher, a stand-up comedian known for his atheist, liberal-slanted comedy routine.

Maher then went on to say that Frank was lucky to have worked in a "safe district" which didn't receive the kind of media attention that other congressional districts may have. Frank represented Massachusetts's fourth congressional district, which is comprised of mostly southern Massachusetts.

"You were not one of those Congress-people who have to worry about every little thing," the comedian said. "You could come on this show, and sit next to a pot smoking atheist, and it wouldn't bother you."

Frank then responded: "Which pot-smoking atheist were you talking about?" pointing to himself and implying that both he and Maher are "pot smoking atheists." Frank's response received applause and laughter from the audience, and the former congressman went on to speak about his opinion regarding using the bible for oaths when swearing into a government office.

Is there any way freepers can just ignore this “gay” buffoon? He (it) is not worth the time of day.

Can’t say I’ve given the useless fat piece of garbage a second thought. Until this popped up and am reminded how much I detest the insanity he/she/it brought to the halls of Congress.

He talks atheism when it is about himself, the narcissist self.

I describe him as a candidate for the eternal Lake of Fire. Defiant to God to the end.

But...wait. I thought he had no idea what pot plants looked like.

Of all the things about the state of Massachusetts that embarrass me, that POS is by far and beyond, the most egregious of them.

"embarrass me"

Don't feel so alone. My state of Wisconsin recently elected the first openly lesbian senator, Tammy Baldwin. And yes, she's a typical goofy, leftist nut. And I predict she'll be the first open homosexual to run for president.

He is not the problem, just another freak in the show. The problem is the kind of people who would vote for him to represent them in Congress. Dumb, dumb, people...a result of our excellent, Bill Ayres inspired education system.

He “didn’t know” a gay prostitution ring was being run out of his apartment or that Fannie Mae was going under (thanks to the boy toy sex bribe he was given to obstruct Bush’s efforts to get to the bottom of the corruption).

He belongs in prison for his crimes and deserves to be listed with “infamous” next to his name in the nation’s history books.
