The White House has released this statement on Barney Frank's retirement from President Obama, who has been meeting with European Union leaders since around noon:

"This country has never had a Congressman like Barney Frank, and the House of Representatives will not be the same without him. For over 30 years, Barney has been a fierce advocate for the people of Massachusetts and Americans everywhere who needed a voice. He has worked tirelessly on behalf of families and businesses and helped make housing more affordable. He has stood up for the rights of LGBT Americans and fought to end discrimination against them. And it is only thanks to his leadership that we were able to pass the most sweeping financial reform in history designed to protect consumers and prevent the kind of excessive risk-taking that led to the financial crisis from ever happening again

First Reggie Love leaving, now Bwarney Fwank, Our little princeling leader Obama is going to develop abandonement issues....

[Gator113]

All of that sounds so queer.....

[ResponseAbility]

****And it is only thanks to his leadership that we were able to pass the most sweeping financial reform in history designed to protect consumers and prevent the kind of excessive risk-taking that led to the financial crisis from ever happening again****

Once again Obama proves he is the best liar in the world.

I suspect that Barney Frank understands his bleak future in politics and has decided to retire in hopes of getting out of the obvious line of fire! The Republicans are going to sweep the 2012 elections and the trail of Democrats corruption with surface and investigations will begin. Frank's line of thinking is if he isn't in full target view perhaps he might be spared from any perp walks!

helped make housing more affordable.

And now nobody can afford to buy a house.
Or they don't dare to, because they could lose their job tomorrow.
See how well this program worked.
His policies started this whole financial meltdown.

You forgot the BARF alert!

[choctaw man]

HaHa...Congressman Pantload: “He has worked tirelessly on behalf of families and businesses and helped make housing more affordable.” - priceless...

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Not surprising that Obama is so firmly behind Barney Frank.

[ml/nj]

If you were to elect me instead of the passel of mostly schmucks that are running, I would see to it that Barney Frank were prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

(And prison might be a blessing for Barney.)

There is at least one positive thing one can say about Frank; he generally got to the bottom of things!

[avenir]

I’m tired right now and cannot think clearly, but gobbledygook doesn’t require much brainpower. I cannot fathom having to spout mountains of nonsense day after day about people I could care less about, yet these men in politics do. It has to scar your very soul.

For a minute there, I thought they were going to announce he would be replacing Reggie Love.

“”This country has never had a Congressman like Barney Frank, and the House of Representatives will not be the same without him.”

I can certainly hope it will never be the same again.

“This country has never had a Congressman like Barney Frank, and the House of Representatives will not be the same without him.....”

- truer words were never spoken. Good riddance and don’t let the door hit you on the way out, Mr. Fwank.

[Tilted Irish Kilt]

“This country has never had a Congressman like Barney Frank, and the House of Representatives will not be the same without him.”

More truer words have never been spoken....(sarc)

..And those of us at the White House wish him well on his new endeaver to become a basketball coach . He is looking to develope a team from the bottom - up .

Small angry homosexual who never had his fathers love. Maybe he heard the dogs in a distance coming to get him.

[Popman]

Come on. That’s from The Onion. Somebody tell me that’s from The Onion.

Thinking the same thing

As a conservative, it reads like The Onion....

From the progressive libtard moonbat.... it reads like Moses reading from the mountain

“The White House has released this statement on Barney Frank’s retirement from President Obama, who has been meeting with European Union leaders since around noon”

Yes, I think you’re right. Definitely a second grader.

[Charles Martel]

Frank's line of thinking is if he isn't in full target view perhaps he might be spared from any perp walks!

I'm sure he'll arrange to spend lots of time in some corner of Europe that is tolerant of his perversion and not terribly quick to jump when the USA hollers. Perhaps he got a good long-term rental deal on Roman Polanski's Swiss chalet.
