Apparently Democratic Congressman Barney Frank was harassed by protesters who called the openly gay congressman a “Homo Communist”. As a result of that slur, Frank told The Hill that it is “unfortunate” that Tea Party proteters took to spewing “bigoted, abusive, personal things” at him.
The article in The Hill continued, “Then the Financial Services Committee Chairman took a shot at a GOP member of his Financial Services Committee panel, Rep. Michele Bachmann (Minn.). ‘Any movement in which the intellectual leader is Michele Bachmann is obviously going to be problematic,’ Frank said.”
Oh, well, that’s just Barney Frank being Barney Frank. He objects to being called a “homo Communist” but has absolutely no problem implying that Michele Bachmann is stupid.
And how about his use of the term “teabaggers” to describe Tea Party members. That’s not a slur?
In Barney’s career, he’s expected us to believe that he did not know his gay lover was running a whore house out of Barney’s basement, nor that another of his lovers was smoking marijuana because Barney “did not know what marijuana looked like.”
Those tall tales were tough enough to believe. But Barney’s going too far if he expects us to believe he doesn’t know what tea bagging is.

Don’t the two of them make a handsome couple?
Hint: If the media stop monitoring the Maddow show, she would lose her last two or three viewers (researchers I am sure) and finally go away! But she is amusing, taking herself so seriously and all.

Love Barney Frank! I don’t like the term tea baggers but sill I like frank. As a gay man, it’s nice to have one member of congress, the body that writes our laws, understand our positions on issues. Maddow’s show is informative and I believe her ratings are good enough to stay on the air. I doubt any right winger here will agree with me but lefty is not evil. just different views. We’re all Americans.

Yes Goliath did win… but it was only this battle there are a lot more battles to come. Yet another example of religious usage in the hands of idiots who spew separation of church and state all the time.
Barney is an idiot why do people keep him in there?

The only thing that matters in Barney Frank’s life is that he GET HIS WAY. Even when he does, he is still a very unhappy person. Sucks to be him.

The banking queen complained that he was called gay (or something) on Saturday before the vote. But look here at this clip — he calls the tea party movement tea baggers. I learned what tea baggers were from I Hate the Media.
I guess that’s alright for the little queen to say that.
