Barney Frank on God, the filibuster and the constitution

Witnessing the dismantling of the Democrat Party, Barney Frank had a few frantic words Saturday for what’s left of the Air America audience. Those damn 60 votes required for passing healthcare bill are just a technicality.

“Look, we have a serious constitutional problem…The 60 vote majority, it is outrageous…It is time top shut it down. It is anti-democratic.” And our personal favorite: “GOD DIDN’T CREATE THE FILIBUSTER.”

But not to worry, he says: those forty votes against healthcare are just from small states anyway.

Maybe God didn’t create the filibuster, but we think He might have brought us Scott Brown.

  • Actually what Barney Frank really wants to see is that the fillibuster can only be used by the Dems and the Repwubicans (Frank talk) are exempt by it.

  • The problem with Barney Frank is that he should be serving his next in federal prison for some of the things he's done. But instead, he will serve another 2 year term in Congress when he wins his next election.

  • Barney Frank is a disgusting, maladjusted ignorant and pathetic individual who suffers from a terminal narcissistic napoleon complex. It is amazing if not a sad commentary to our political process that slime mold like Frank can be a voice in a government, but I suppose realistically he is not qualified for anything else.
