Barney Frank to sponsor town hall meeting on health care
Boston Herald ^ | 8/17/2009

Posted on 08/17/2009 11:50:42 AM PDT by markomalley

Responding to what he called the “unusual nature of the health care debate,” U.S. Rep. Barney Frank intends to host a town hall meeting on the national effort to overhaul the health care system.

The meeting will be in addition to a Tuesday Dartmouth Town Committee meeting at which Frank plans to speak on a variety of Congressional issues, including regulation of financial institutions.

In a statement released Friday, Frank said the interest in his attendance at the Dartmouth meeting – the town committee moved the event to a larger venue to accommodate the anticipated crowd – spurred him to consider sponsoring a separate meeting on health care. The time and place of his hearing are forthcoming, he said.

Baaaaarney’s utterly amoral but he ain’t stupid.Combine that with the fact that he’s got his district locked up tight and you can sure that his meeting won’t be at all “spirited” like so many across the country have been.

Baaaarney's a mighty attractive guy so I'll wager that this hasn't been an "exclusive" arrangement.

Don’t waste your time going to argue with Barney. He loves that stuff and will just call you some vile name. You can throw as many rocks as you want at Barney and the nuts in his ditrict will still reelect him by a large margin.

During the House Financial Services Full Committee Hearing on "Recent Events in the Credit and Mortgage Markets and Possible Implications for U.S. Consumers and the Global Economy"Chairman Barney Frank left the hearing in order to attend a meeting in support of legislation that would force American employers to hire homosexuals.   That says a lot about Barney's priorities.

...so they’re only going to pack the place with Union guys?"

That all depends on what the meaning of the work PACK means. :-)
