WASHINGTON — Unqualified home buyers were not the only ones who benefitted from Massachusetts Rep. Barney Frank’s efforts to deregulate Fannie Mae throughout the 1990s.
So did Frank’s partner, a Fannie Mae executive at the forefront of the agency’s push to relax lending restrictions.
Now that Fannie Mae is at the epicenter of a financial meltdown that threatens the U.S. economy, some are raising new questions about Frank's relationship with Herb Moses, who was Fannie’s assistant director for product initiatives. Moses worked at the government-sponsored enterprise from 1991 to 1998, while Frank was on the House Banking Committee, which had jurisdiction over Fannie.

Has anyone figured out what is going on between Barney Frank’s nose and his teeth — you know — his sagging upper hood?
Right after President Bush became Governor of Texas,
he changed it to allow these felons had no waiting time.

Not much but it was an early sign.
STD?
Damn! You are of course right. Sometimes I could just cry....
I concur with both posts.

McCain has a form Stockholm Syndrome....he can’t bear to say anything bad about his Democrat captors.

Barney’s not in trouble. Anyone who thinks so still believes in justice and the tooth fairy. /s/
You are killing me. Sounds like an episode of South Park is in the works.

Barney Frank and the Male Prostitute – 1989
The era of sour feelings on Capitol Hill continued after House Speaker James. C. Wright’s resignation and the smear campaign against his successor, Thomas S. Foley. In a third blockbuster scandal, Massachusetts Democratic Rep. Barney Frank admitted a lengthy relationship with a male hooker who ran a bisexual prostitution service out of Frank’s apartment.
The story was broken by the conservative Washington Times newspaper, which trumpeted every juicy morsel with front-page hype. Though Frank was apparently ignorant of some of the prostitute’s activities, his indiscretion was so great that his standing in Congress was greatly damaged and a House reprimand passed overwhelmingly in July 1990. His home district in Massachusetts was more forgiving, reelecting him easily the following November.
Dems gonna toss Barney under the bus ?

Which only goes to show, I guess, what a bunch of slime balls reside in his district.
Send Barney yo all women’s prison. They should be safe.
Although 300 million Americans may think he is a total scumbag he is sent to Congress by about 450,000 voters in his district, half of whom don’t even bother to vote. Frank was reelected in 2004 with a little more than 218,000 votes.
