Imagine the coverage this story would have had if we substituted...oh say Sarah Palin for Barney Frank.

It's amazing isn't it? We have a dope smoking homosexual who has had one boyfriend who ran a brothel out of his house and another boyfriend who sells drugs. Yet Barney Frank gets protected by the press and apparently by even Republicans in congress.

Saddening.

Don’t forget that his boyfriend also was a top ranking person in one of the biggest home loaning/thieving scandals of all time.

And all along barney assures us everything is just fine...and now he plays the savior.

The media up there have to be the most biased I have ever seen

And that is because, in the last 30 years, the papers have been systematically bought out by out of state liberals.

The venerable old paper I used to work for, the oldest in the state, was still locally owned when I started = now owned by a conglomerate from down south - uber liberals who know nothing about real Maine or Mainers - and don't care to.

We're not, in the words of one of the publishers, "OCP"

I asked her what that stood for and she said, "Our Class of People."

I replied: "Thank God for that."

She gave me a puzzled look - I think she was trying to figure out if I had agreed with or insulted her. They are a dumb bunch.

manc

An aside: You are, you say, a world traveler - and you "opt for the ignorant" as pertaining to Mainers.

From your post, I would guess you have been to busy traveling to pick up such mundane things as the rudiments of English, grammar, punctuation and such???

It would be "above the fold" for years and in the history books forever.

And there's plenty to choose from - anything with a "D" after it's name.

not too busy at all.

Yes having lived up there and around Europe then I would have to say that many of the MA voters were just plain ignorant to what they were voting for and yes that goes for my mother in law.
The typical Dem who sees the D and puts the tick, you say check mark.

Now can you guess?

We know that he gets a free pass because he’s a democrat. Just like Teddy Kennedy got a free pass in 1968.

I said MA voters for the most part were ignorant not ME and yes I lived up in Scarborough a little white.
Do you spell it the town different to where I come from?

Very odd that Barney happens to be in two places, protestution and illegal pot, where criminal activities are being conducted and he just happens to escape both.

You may have thought it, but did not say it. The story takes place in Maine -

In your original post # 16, you said:

...but having lived up there up there for a bit I would go for the ignorant part.

I was surprised that everyone IO talked to over that time while I was up there never knew about Frank, him being a homo or even the prostitution ring .

The media up there have to be the most biased I have ever seen and that is something seeing as I have lived around the world in many countries and around this country

Where, in there, does it say MA, to differentiate from ME - Maine?

Well Barney frank is from MA, yes and I did mention Frank , yes.

So obviously the post was about MA and the voters who would vote him in..

It didn’t seem to I had to actually mention the state of MA when I was on about Frank and the voters show will vote him in there.

Even after I re-posted your VERY OWN post for you to reread - showing you did NOT say MA - and the fact that the story takes place in Maine - so one could infer your "ignorant" was in reference to Mainers.

Once proven wrong, you now posit that anyone reading your post should have KNOWN you were referring to Massachusetts people because "Bwarny" is from Mass.

As a retired reporter, investigative reporter, editor, publisher and award winning columnist - words as my tool of trade.

If you turned in a story like your post - it would've come back to you red-lined. Your readers are not supposed to have to guess what's in your mind.

Have a good day - maybe time for another around the world trip?

Please see post #2. It is obvious manc is referring to the voters who keep electing Frank. That is MA.
