I am so proud to have Mr. Frank representing me from Massachusetts ! He rocks and the far right simply hate him ... so that tells us he's doing something right lol

barney frank is a true american hero

People in America are terminated from their jobs because of their sexual orientation and GENDER IDENTITY.

@ChocolateNinjaStar I said I would not comment any further, but you egged me on. My "claims" were based in legitimate news stories: about Barney having a relationship with guy who was arrested for growing pot (and Barney claimed no knowledge of it); about Barney having a live-in boyfriend that was running a gay prostitution ring from Barney's apartment (and he supposedly didn't know about it); and thirdly his "relationship" with Fannie and Freddie is well documented.

[ChocolateNinjaStar]

@LechDharma Good for you, you know what "ad hominem" means. Please, do continue to make personal attacks against one of the better men in Congress without any legitimate claims to reinforce yourself.

God, people like you make me laugh.

[LechDharma]

@ChocolateNinjaStar Well, I said always wondered what type of person would vote to keep him in office, and now i know: someone who doesn't care about debating facts, and relies upon ad hominem attacks to defend his/her opinion (not bad for someone who "must have the consciousness of a roll of tape, and the intellect of a spork", huh?) I will not express my opinion on this fan-boy page again.

[ChocolateNinjaStar]

@LechDharma I'm not even going to bother arguing with you, so I'll leave with this: you must have the consciousness of a roll of tape, and the intellect of a spork.

Please never express your opinions ever again.

terrible man... "discrimination" arguments are the easier thing in the world to make. it plucks the heart strings, but the reality is much different. does no one see the ridiculous costs on employers and on freedom by the standards of enforcing what's "fair" in these "discrimination" regulations?

[LechDharma]

I always wondered what type of person would vote to keep this blow-hard (no pun intended) buffoon in office, despite his "romantic relationships" with men who were arrested for growing pot, busted for running a gay prostitution business---from BAWNEY's apartment---and one who was a top exec at Fannie Mae. More than anyone, Barney Frank is individually responsible for the mortgage and financial crisis in this country...and people on this page sing his praises? I weep for America.

Thank you Barney Frank, for standing up to the middle class while serving in Congress for the last 30+ years. We will miss you, and your hard Progressive stance on issues. Enjoy your retirement, when it starts in 2013.

This guy is good! Now if there is a way to make sure that he continue in the Congress for another 20 years, I would thank God for that.
