"Mr. Speaker - does whining come out of my time?"

[Rosgo66]

Lol I love Barney Frank

[LexNaturalis1982]

Elmer Fudds greatest hits. Althought Fudd lacked the capacity to destroy the U.S. Economy.

[Martial024]

Barney Frank played a major role in the housing crisis, much shame must be on his head.

He might have ment well, but it was an anti-american, anti-freedom big brother position and it came back to bite him in the ass.

[Username93611]

Why the hell is the final third of this muted!?  Fucking censorship FTL!

[redreaper2020]

"In all of my agreements to speak does whining come out of my time?"

[HedonistUnashamed]

Some day, some how, Congress will realize that it needs to learn to follow its own rules. Way to go, Barn.

[OhNoYouCant]

Today is a great day in Massachusetts history! Today at 1pm, the biggest abomination to ever hold office announces his retirement.

Sorry Freddie and Fannie - your champion rat is fleeing the sinking ship.

[HarvardLawGroup]

I dont care what he does in his private life... but he does great things in his public life... he is fighting for the best interests of the American people... keep fighting the honorable fight Mr. Frank

[OhNoYouCant]

@HarvardLawGroup "he is fighting for the best interests of the American people"

HaHaHaHaHaHa.... you're a cute, naive little thing aren't you?

Sorry dolt. Barney is thankfully gone. Like the rat leaving the sinking ship.

[rmutt4]

@HarvardLawGroup

i'm sure he doesn't care what you do in your private life, either.

[Martial024]

No he doesn't, considering your English I wouldn't be surprised if you really were from Harvard, just like how Obama taught constitutional law there yet doesn't seem to have read it at all.

Your an idiot, a lot of people are suffering for his actions and experimentation that was very anti-american/freedom which he claims to be for. Also, the debt is higher, and the bankers won battles with his aid.

[DeedsResearcher]

"padude64" is clearly an immature child who has no concept of reality. If anyone is a crybaby around here, it is him, although he does a fair imitation of Barney Frank. Speaker Boehner has committed no crimes, but Barney has been caught with his hand in the proverbial cookie jar. Interestingly, when the few Republicans are caught in an indiscretion, they resign. When democrats get caught, they cry and whine ("Oh, poor me!") for the cameras, as Barney has done.

[Edgehead10075]

Amen!

[padude64]

Boner is a fuckin crybaby bitch!

[BraniusBalki]

This guy is awesome, good to see witty people rather than the petulant whining so often heard in politics today.

[DeedsResearcher]

Barney, please do the world a favor: SHUT UP!

[padude64]

@DeedsResearcher you shut up right wing pig and fuck Boehner the asshole!

[equsnarnd]

Barney Frank should be in jail!

[padude64]

@equsnarnd so should you be in jail with John Boner

[nalani005]

Barney, your the shit. All you fucktard need to go back up your asses where you came from. Oh, I'm sorry, up Fox news ass, where you came from. There are alot of people to blame for the housing market, he has taken some of that blame. I can't help but wonder, all you fucktards talking shit like you know something, did any of you get a home loan and refinance to live like a king when you shouldn't have been able to? I'll bet there is a few of you. The economy is strong-Goerge W

[mphandel]

Barney needs to change his sexual oreintation,,,,,,,its breaking his mouth.

[2006nationalchamps]

I WILL BE SO HAPPY WHEN YOUR RETARDED ASS AND YOUR FRIENDS GET BOOTED OUT OF YOUR JOB YOU RETARD come november........

[ncfc59]

hey gamesmaster35 - your reply stated: "And all those corporate fat cats trading derivitives .... That's what caused the collapse."

Well, dumbass, they were trading worthless derivatives that caused the collapse - TRUE. Derivatives they wouldn't have even had to trade IF it hadn't been for Barney corr-up-the-ass Frank. DUH!! So quit throwing around buzzwords like "fat-cats" and taking up for your precious Mr. Barney Corrup-the-ass Frankenliar.

[rglover1982]

Barney Frank - Epitome of corrupt politicians. He is litereally in bed with Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. He is what is wrong with America today. Destroying America one power grab at a time and when he realizes he destroyed something he plays the blame game. Power hungry, blame passing, irresponsible, corrupt, blabbering fool. Also you'd think he'd go see a speech therapist once in a while.

[jarcar202]

what a loser

[stillrob420]

Barney takes it in the butt, willingly.  you think hes scared of anything you got?

[Slipfeed]

Barney Frank For President.

[Poonard]

@cristian1994419 you think ignorance and racism just magically disappears? You have this idea that the human heart and mind just magically grew out of hate and anger? You're fooling yourself and to disrespect an elder just for having an opinion. You fucks sink to no bottom, it's bottomless, and you laugh about it, you think it's funny. I laugh at you though, you think you're on a magic team, you think your representatives actually care about you, left and right, you're all a waste of time.

[PremiumWater]

Hmmm should I vote Republican or Democrat? It's like asking should I have some bum take a diarrhea shit all over my face or pack tooth picks under my toe nails and kick a wall. "Mr. Speaker, does whining come out of my time?" and then you proceed to whine for fucking four minutes...unfucking believable.

[Poonard]

@PremiumWater and people thumb you down because you hurt their little phoney emotions that are tied to a political party. sigh...they don't even know humanity anymore unless its legislated.

"What, does common courtesy have to be fucking mandated now?" Bill Hicks

[PremiumWater]

Bill Hicks may he rest in peace.

[gamesmaster35]

@PremiumWater he's addressing a issue.This happens alot when someone wants to get something pass that they know if people had time to analyze would never get pass the smell test.They will stall and stall and within the last few minutes will present a Bill and basically say sign here.Give you some bogus summary and expect the representatives to vote yes on it based on the summary.Even if you don't like Barney Frank or the democrats you must admit having time to read a bill before voting is good.

[corpuschristi15]

Barney Frank is awesome and Im proud he's my rep!

[Lordacton09]

Barney frank is an idiot schmuck.

[diapasonify]

Fucking republicans.

[altonrocker]

Your right back in my day there was ignorance and racism. And after hearing from you i see that it is still alive a well.

[ApostleOfScience]

@altonrocker,

Though I like some of your comments - I would like to point out that your claim of not being a Republican is a little difficult to believe when you quote "Love it or Leave It," I am reminded of the mantra said at almost every Republican rally I've had to film - "This is America! Love it or Leave It!" It is hard to take you as a unbiased American Joe.

[altonrocker]

More comedy from Barney Frank. Hey Mr. Frank let me ask you a question. How dose it feel not to be able to read anything that will be passes in a bill. And for those of you who are going to say, well this is more GOP crap.I am not Republican. But i am an American. step up and be with us. In my day we had a saying. AMERICA LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT. I just can't believe anything Mr.Frank says anymore.$780,000,000,000.00 in bailouts. 15 min. to read the bill.(Something that important) That done no good.

[Poonard]

@altonrocker people are thumbing this statement down? how dare you fucking retards. you have a comedian for a rep. the only reason people like him is because he makes you laugh, admit it, he's a pile of shit...GO AHEAD thumb me down. I agree with you alton, the days of NOT READING BILLS MUST END~!

[Hipeopleofus]

Barney Frank is amazing...it is unfortunate that many people do not understand him and he is so surrounded by myths...I have heard many republicans say how much they respect Barney Frank even though he is a democrat...he does his homework and he stands up for his opinion...if we had more members like him in our government we would be able to do so much...

[surgedark]

@Hipeopleofus

Barney Frank is one of the most corrupt- scumbags in Congress.

He stopped all investigations on Freddie and Fannie- the two banks responsible for the economic crisis- all while saying they are financially sound.

[budddy385]

Barney Frank For President!

[pantherfanatic7]

@budddy385 Oh my gosh. He would collapse the country just like he collapsed the housing market.

[jodes015]

@budddy385 hey loser where are you now a year later still collecting welfare

[budddy385]

@jodes015 LOL I'm 17 u fucking idiot.. and by the looks of it.. a lot smarter than u... aren't u proud of yourself? HAH! u ppl assume everyone is on welfare... that's your only defense.. "ppl are goona take my money and be lazy and not work" shut the fuck up!

[Edgehead10075]

Lol @ that idiocy.

[xsxrxvx]

Barney Frank....This biggest joke in Gov. Why in the hell would anyone vote for this idiot? He has made a complete mockery of the American Gov and the people of America.

[Ecksntrick8]

What are you stupid or something?

[Stefanthenautilus]

Barney Frank: Original Gangsta

[Grokstar35]

long live Barney Frank!

[BurnOutXL]

Love how he complains about the amendment & time needed to read it. He didn't have a problem wasting NO TIME allowing bank bailouts, the 1000+ page "stimulus" bill, FNM & FRE loans, the expansion of FNM & FRE at the BEGINNING of the collapse Feb/Mar08, ACORN funding, and a whole lot more without reading or carefully examining a damn thing!

B.Frank is a major part of the problems with this country. And he's an arrogant little man.

[wyvern734]

Tell it like it is, Congressman Frank. I'm so glad to have someone perceptive and brave fighting for me. Thank you so much.

[asunsetinmyveins]

You are severely misguided.

[Ecksntrick8]

YOU stupid?

[ghettoishrec]

barney frank for pres

[MrSally56]

How in the hell did this cocksucker get in political office. it boggles the mind.

[1Tane55]

Barney Frank is the Chair of the Banking comittee that accepted $1.3 million dollars from the banking lobby to push for deregulation.

Congress got $5 billion dollars from the banking lobby.

Fire Congress and charge them as Traitors for Treason.

Lots of reasons besides selling our future for personal gains.

Top one on my list being Bush Accomplices.

[billyjimbob007]

You're making fun of an accomplished man (U.S. congressman) who has a speech impediment, and he's the embarassment? I'd take a country of intelligent, concerned "Sylverster"s voicing their opinion the best they can over your ilk any day. You're the embarassment to this country, not Barney Frank.

[pacificimporters]

They really should either put up a sneeze-guard at the podium, or hand out plastic ponchos to everyone in the first row, because when that retard hits the podium, "therze gwonna be wots of spitting aww ober da pwace"! Maybe they could set aside a few bucks for some Hooked on Phonics DVDs for Sylvester there.

[ncfc59]

How can anyone defend this man? billyjimbob007 you boggle the mind.

[billyjimbob007]

I'm not sure what you think I'm defending. All I said was that he was accomplished, intelligent, and concerned, all of which I think are readily apparent.  I'm just pointing out what a tool you have to be to criticize somebody like this because of a physical handicap. I wonder how hard it was for Mr. Frank to get to his position in a world full of "pacificimporters?"

[pacificimporters]

I'd be like, "I'm sorry, can you write your question on a sheet of paper and pass it forward? It sounds like I'm speaking with a fucking 2nd grader. Thank you"

[okplayer420]

It must be difficult to understand intelligent people after eight years with your empty head up Cheney's ass. Maybe you need a Q-tip in order to get Cheney's crusty fecal matter out of your ears.

[pacificimporters]

Weww, at weast I no dat Cheney whath able to compwete de thiwd gwade and sweak Engwish cowwect. But I gueth when u habe a penith in ur thwoat u tok wike dat!

[ncfc59]

okplayer420: Barney Frank is hardly a redeeming member of Congress. He is one of the main architects of the mess we're in now, DIRECTLY responsible for the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac fiasco. He and Chris Dodd.

[margo1031]

i love barney frank

[amp1616]

I ADORE BARNEY FRANK

[spectrumdweller]

Spoken like a true foul-mouthed douchebag. 'Voying'? I see you're still in Junior High. As for my best interests? Step out of your protective shelter and check out what the rest of the country is like, cockfag!

[spectrumdweller]

Because faggots like you aren't in prison, hobo.

[shaunnjer]

Suck a fat cock you idiot, and stop voying against your best interests

[bigbengamer]

this video isn't working well for me. the audio is accelerated faster than the video. anyone else having that trouble?

[w1nt3rmut3]

that's just how fast he talks! :D

[bigbengamer]

lol

[link48010]

Barney is so cool, he talks faster than 30 frames per second.

[bigbengamer]

HAHA good stuff. who knew that millions of people would end up thinking that a gay jew was so damn awesome

[hobo1958]

Why isn't this faggot in prison yet?

[Mrcharliebobo]

You are a demented liberal assclown, and because you made a dumbass assumption makes you a dolt, and Assachusetts is not the smartest state you fucking MORON!! and to even imply that as fact just proves what an assmonkey you are, Now get your tiny head out of your ass and put the gerbil back in and try to focus.

[Mrcharliebobo]

LMFAO!! You FAIL again buttpuppet where in my post did i say D.C was a state?...nowhere!! = You suck at life kid, but keep trying!!!

[Mrcharliebobo]

Your stupidity is astounding! The only ones Frank "embarrasses" is himself and his constituents. and as for Assachusetts being the "smartest" state, you are absolutely wrong on that to assclown!! D.C has the highest % of college grads! selimaazouri = FAIL!!!!

[Mrcharliebobo]

Really genius!! LMAO!!! you assclowns love the Barney FRANK'S!!! Now shut your cock hole!

[jadam914]

Wow, it is interesting to hear him complain about not getting a chance to debate and read a part of a bill before voting on it. Hmmmm it seems he's voted on a few recently with out reading them or at least giving the rest of congress a chance to read them or debate them. Just a bit hypocritical don't you think?

[shro0my0]

Is this what passes for intelligent criticism nowadays?

[ohmybentley]

CROOK knows nothing.

[pennieless]

Can this guy pull the d*ck out of his mouth long enough to speak?

He's a big piece or pork himself! Someone should introduce this fat slob to a treadmill!

[BlightyLume]

I guess you're one of the idiots who votes for people based on whether they look like you can "have a beer with them."

[5506]

he is complaining that something that may or may have not passed was not given enought time to read and debate over.

is he serious. do u see the hypocracy. lol.

the spending bill just passed was passed over night. lol. this is amazing.

[weydiddy]

and how was the hilariously titled Patriot Act passed???

[5506]

what is ur point? this statute was not passed over night. it took a couple to few weeks. and nobody, except one, opposed it. so that includes EVERYBODY, dems. and repub..

[traditionalistx100]

Sounds exactly like how the stimulus redux & the most recent omnibus bill was/is being shoved through congress with ALL 9,000+ EARMARKS..

Get out your wallets AMERCIA because nancy and blarney are coming! Then get out your kids wallet, and their kids wallets and so on...

[Bostonia22]

[MEAGHER79]

barney needs to drive his car off a cliff with the rest of the libs in it.

This guy, and I use that term loosly, should be rotting in cell for his handling of the banks under his watch.

[scottj1988]

what the hell is he talking about?

[inkydinkydooky]

How did this Jack-ass ever get elected? How do people with any sense vote for this idiot? What the heck is wrong with this country?

[antilibber]

The know it all fucking democrats did this.

Democrats are what is wrong with this country. He should stick to sucking dick.

[inkydinkydooky]

Wait until you see what this so called stimulus bill is going to do antilibber? You think it's bad now, check back in about three months! How about three years! (If we're still here). This country is going to Hell in a hand basket.

[catndryer]

If SNL was still funny......they would have somebody regularly doing a hilarious satire of this idiot.

[PatricksTime]

barney is pathetic...he is a cancer to our government!

[AWE319]

Barney Frank is a joke. Most house Democrats are jokes (With the exception of Dennis Kucinich and a few others including Former Georgia congresswomen Cynthia McKinney.) On the Republican side the interventionist neocons are jokes, but there actully are some decent House Members (Ron Paul being the best, followed by Jeff Flake, John Shadegg, John English, and a few others. ) On the senate side I like Chuck Hagel (R-NE),Arlen Specter(R-PA),Jeff Session(R-AL) just to name a few.

[flipperrrulez]

Dennis Kucinich is the biggest punch line in the history of politics.

[ChrisMiran]

how could the 4th district of Mass. keep on reelecting this nutcase fag commy!

[NickErdody3]

well he is funny as hell

[magog1138]

He is funny, but you just called a guy who is questioning the ethical nature of a a Bill being amended in the last two minutes of session right before it's passed so that the elected representatives don't read it, and pass it unchecked... yeah, what a "commie fag" indeed.

[Evinem0124]

I am very impressed. I don't care what you think about Frank, but he was obviously right in this situation. They were just trying to push something through the last minute.

[rhliquidators]

Frank Pelosi and Reed are supported/paid off by UAW. They are fighting so hard for this bailout because they have to protect UAW to make good on UAW payoff (wink-wink) campaign contribution money. WE NEED TO GET RID OF THESE CRIMAL CONGRESS MEMBERS NOW.

[ghall88]

Barney Frank is the Best? what are you smoking, this guy helped cause the financial crisis with Fannie and Freddie, I quote" everything with Fannie and Freddie is ok". Do your research you moron.

[bonesquid]

Barney Frank is the best congressman.

[CommonSpecies]

Queen Barney Frank. Now that you've caused destruction of the American economy with your political incompetence thru the years and blame others for it. Your political history places you on a level BELOW Judas Iscariot. At least Judas had the balls to hang himself after his wrongful actions. But you haven't removed yourself from society which proves your gay balls are completely USELESS and less than the balls of Judas.

Queen Barney Frank, you don't deserve honor.

[vvebvvaster]

What a joke! Up until recently, NeoCons championed deregulation like it was manna from heaven. Then Wham! Financial crisis hits and they act like they've been the driving force behind tighter regulation for the last 50 years. Typical put your finger to the wind after the fact to see where the wind blows and act like your the one with the fan politics of the recent Right-wing. This is why you LOST! Homophobia does NOT = conservative. Neocons are about as conservative as my left-most toe.

[golyg]

Thanks for ruining Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac you fag communist.

[scrawlspacer]

It's such a shame that the audio and video are completely mismatched. This video makes for better listening than viewing. Please, Progressive, do better quality control....

[UnconcernedCitizen]

Considering Congressmen Barney Franks openness, I was surprised to hear him tell Bill OReilly that he didnt like all this talk about manliness.(BTW, whats wrong with Barney Frank? Why does he talk like Elmer Fudd?)

[PriaNorm]

Does the nasty inept fat sloppy moron Barney Franks spit on people as he talks

[Susieshepherd]

I love Barney Frank! He speaks out against the BULLSH-!

[stevenb1998]

frank is sucha idiot..

[exte1967]

wheres tweety?

[daleyjem]

i think the audio in this has a slightly increased tempo. he's talking way to fast for me to understand what he's saying. please re-check and re-upload.

[zapproowsdower]

I hope Obama sees how ideal this man would be for a VP.

[DblOSmith]

That's a very interesting thought.

[josephdrew87]

Sadly for the US and the rest of the world, I fear that is rather unlikely. If it (ever) happened it would grant me infinite joy.

[bigdicky321]

he's gay obama would never take him. shame.

[iluvbettyb]

Hahahahahahah!!! You hope Obama sees him as an ideal vp pick. OMG, you're sooooooooo funny.

[zapproowsdower]

yes, i am funny! most of my friends agree. however i was obviously being serious. If you think i was joking, it follows that you think barney frank is a joke... what, you hate gays now? or people with slight speech impediments?

i may be funny, but you're an idiot.

[acrossthenorthernsea]

Barney Frank for president!

[unterland]

Barney Frank is a good orator, and that is immensely rare in Congress, these days.

[mklptrk]

I agree: It's awesome to hear this guy speak. I remember him a few days after September 11th, 2001 speaking in front of Congress and I was truly impressed.

[iluvbettyb]

ROFL!!! OMG, you guys are so funny...I just about bust my gut laughing so hard. Sarcastic humor is the best kinda of humor. Barney Frank pfffttt!!!!!!!!!!!

[pacificimporters]

He sounds like Sylvester the Cat. Truly an embarassment to our government.

[ScottBrown666]

Our government embarrasses itself daily. Barney Frank is one of the few redeeming features of it. You sound like some southern racist latent homosexual who isn't much more intelligent than a barn door.

[ncfc59]

ScottBrown666 - Nice name calling, but the truth is Barney Frank is DIRECTLY responsible for the collapse of the housing industry. His complete, utter lack of understanding what his actions had upon Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Or perhaps he knows eactly what he has done to hurt millions upon millions of Americans. Either way, BARNEY FRANK (along with Chris Dodd and ACORN) IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE HOUSING INDUSTRY COLLAPSE.

[ScottBrown666]

I like how you back up your statements with your opinion.

[ScottBrown666]

Extreme economic inequality coupled with ruthlessly greedy bankers and mortgage companies caused the collapse of the housing industry. Barney Frank just wants people to have shelters to live in. Too much to ask in the Land of the Free, I suppose.

P.S.- My ass can do a Rush Limbaugh impression.

[BurnOutXL]

AMEN!

[postwala]

I am not an american though and may be wrong about things...but to my knowledge he has become chairmaN IN FEB 2007, when collapse already started. I was pretty new to the country doing my MBA when the same topic was discussed in class. It was like most people new that housing collapse was about to come. If you go through Ron Paul videos- you would know better reasons

[gamesmaster35]

@ncfc59 And all those corporate fat cats trading derivitives that added up to 10 times the monetary assets of the whole world had nothing to do with the collapse?You had a bunch of greedy people essentially betting more money than they actually had.It was all black boxed so you couldn't figure out who had what.This froze up money because no one knew who had real money and who didn't.No one could trust the other person had the money to pay back a loan.That's what caused the collapse.

[eirefrance]

I hope Mr. Frank has donated his sperm, because that intelligence and confidence needs to be passed on.

[loqutor]

I feel safe with Barney Frank in Congress.

[outrider52]

badly synched

[Kakerot4141]

actually, its synched perfectly, its just that Barney Frank slurs his words so much it only SEEMS like its out of synch... jk :)

(member of Frank's constituency)
