Outstanding piece, dude! Keep on telling it like it is!
“I will NEVER go communist.”
That’s your perogative. See you in the gulag.
San Fran Nan, Harry Vegas Reid, and Queen Bwaney, in charge. Not to worry Folks. Hop on the slippery slope to the Socialist state with Obama bin Biden.
All you Capitalist out there put your head between your legs and kiss your A$$ goodbye.
Herald's pretty conservative, now if this article was in the Globe - that would be some traction.
LOL!! How bout ‘I love Freddie Fannie’...LOL
Yeah, he loves him some fanny alright.
And not that 60 Minutes or the MSM is going to do it for us - we have to - before the public get's bored of the whole thing.
Barny Frank is openly gay (I'll use the polite word here as we are generally polite here at FR) - as such he will never have children, and that revels a mindset if you will.
So, I would say, Barney worries about the here and now - who will be his next boy toy and so on. So it follows that anything that allows him more pleasure is good and anything else is to be viewed as a thing to be battled.
I dare say he has not been in a church in quite some time. Anyway, this lack of progeny - openly acknowledged, may be the key to understanding the reasons why Barney ses monetary policy in a fundamentaly different light than someone, for example, who cares for or about their grandchildren.
So since Barney worships at the "Church of What's Happen'n Now (sorry Flip) ANYTHING that keeps his gravy train running is fine and damn the long term fallout.
From the WIki
Cyrenaicism (4th and 3rd centuries B.C.), founded by Aristippus of Cyrene, was one of the earliest Socratic schools, and emphasized one side only of the Socratic teaching. Taking Socrates' assertion that happiness is one of the ends of moral action, Aristippus maintained that pleasure was the supreme good. He found bodily gratifications, which he considered more intense, preferable to mental pleasures. They also denied that we should defer immediate gratification for the sake of long-term gain. In these respects they differ from the Epicureans
Another influential money man, John Maynard Keynes, was also openly gay, had no children.
Makes one think - eh?
/rant
Barney Frank can now claim to have done to 300 million people and the America economy the same exact thing he does to his boyfriend on a nightly basis.
Hmm...I don’t wanna do anything “on” Barney Frank, near Barney Frank, with Barney Frank, or after Barney Frank. I can’t believe this dimwit criminal keeps getting elected.
LOL!!
But liberals like Barney Frank wanted more. They wanted the low cost of low-risk loans to be extended to higher-risk borrowers with lower incomes, fewer assets or less-solid credit. Barney and friends used the regulations of the Community Reinvestment Act to threaten lenders into making these loans. And banks, trying to meet Frank’s demands, expanded riskier lending schemes like subprime mortgages. “
The above statement is really the core of the problem.
Fannie and Freddie used to a safe, vanilla, good idea. Like the adage of a dog turd polluting the punch bowl, they were the punch bowl that was polluted. Liberal Democrats are the dog turd.
There’s not much you can do about Barney Frank. He’s the product of 40 years of leftist lunacy.
“and I want him to go to JAIL!!!!”
He’d probably like jail
Bookmarking, thanks!
Isn’t the Boston Herald, so to speak, the newspaper of his district? Is the tide turning against him there?
No, it is the smaller, tabloid competitor to The Boston Globe which is owned by The New York Times. Boston is a two newspaper town. The Boston Herald is fairly normal to conservative.
Thanks. I thought most but maybe LA, NYC and possibly Atlanta and Chicago were one paper towns now.
