With the details of a federal recovery plan emerging, the package is quickly becoming the center of political debate.

It's amazing how quickly this fund-raiser became a round table when local radio picked up the story. Does anyone have an accurate protester count and photos?

Barney Frank Addresses Private Group Downtown

(that’s code for Gay Congressman Spends Sunday Afternoon At The Bath House).

LOL

Very funny!

I care very little that he is gay. I care a lot that he is corrupt.

"I care very little that he is gay. I care a lot that he is corrupt."

Unfortunately, his personal relationships are part and parcel of his corruptness. First he was getting parking tickets fixed for his live-in lover, then his lover was running a prostitution ring from Barney's apartment (he said he hadn't known), and more recently, his boyfriend was an executive at Fannie Mae, and may have gotten his job through Barney's connections.

This what Barney Frank said last week on the Bill O'Reilly show last week:

I became chairman of the Committee on January 31, 2007, less than 2 months later I did what the Republicans haven't been able to do in 12 years, get through the committee a very tough regulatory bill and it passed the house in May. Ive always felt 2 things about Fannie Mae/Freddie mac, that they had an important role to play but that their regulation should be improved. Now from 1995 to 2003 when the Republicans controlled congress and we were in the minority we couldn't get that done.

BO or someone in the MSM should hang him by his tiny testicles for that lying statement! Not difficult at all to come up with numerous statements by him over the years denying problems and resisting regulations to Fannie/Freddie.

[Comparative Advantage]

I think he’s a disgusting role model, from housing a homosexual prostitution ring at his home to his corrupt behavior on behalf of his butt buddy Herb Moses.

WASHINGTON - Rep. Barney Frank is among the first Democrats to publicly say Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s family background, including the pregnancy of her unwed teenage daughter, should be fair game for campaign discussion.

“They’re the ones that made an issue of her family,” Frank, D-Mass., said Tuesday in a telephone interview with The Associated Press.

Republicans stressed Palin’s conservative family values in announcing her selection as John McCain’s running mate on Friday. Frank says the recent disclosure about her daughter blunts conservative claims that liberalism harms family life.

“Apparently she’s a great favorite with the conservative social movement,” Frank said. “They have said that it’s liberalism and liberals who have undermined families — same-sex marriage has been a problem, they don’t want gay people to adopt ... This helps undercut those arguments.”

Revelations about Palin’s 17-year-old daughter’s out-of-wedlock pregnancy and other family troubles reflect the stresses and strains of modern everyday life more than anything else, said Frank.

“Well, hers is a family in great turmoil,” added Frank. “She fired the state police commissioner because he wouldn’t fire her sister’s ex-husband. She has a daughter who became pregnant. That’s not her fault.”
