Barney Frank to sponsor town hall meeting on health care
Boston Herald ^ | 8/17/2009

Posted on 08/17/2009 11:50:42 AM PDT by markomalley

Responding to what he called the “unusual nature of the health care debate,” U.S. Rep. Barney Frank intends to host a town hall meeting on the national effort to overhaul the health care system.

The meeting will be in addition to a Tuesday Dartmouth Town Committee meeting at which Frank plans to speak on a variety of Congressional issues, including regulation of financial institutions.

In a statement released Friday, Frank said the interest in his attendance at the Dartmouth meeting – the town committee moved the event to a larger venue to accommodate the anticipated crowd – spurred him to consider sponsoring a separate meeting on health care. The time and place of his hearing are forthcoming, he said.

With the mirror ball backdrop and a lit tiled floor, the Congressman's performance will be...SUPER!

I believe that when millions of dollars began to flow in from the feds, that the rules were changed...

I used to think that too.... but, with the active participation of so many homosexuals as Czars, i.e., The Obama admin appointed Kevin Jennings, founder of the pro-homosexual GLSEN organization, “to oversee the nation's safe schools” program and Scott Long, director of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Rights Program; the AIDS Czar, Jeffrey Crowley...
as well as flagrantly homosexuals in Congress now, it would appear that the unions have had to bend over to get the money.

I hope the people in the first 4 rows bring plastic sheets to protect them from spittle.

The main issue that will be the focus of the town hall is the healthcare bill, and if passed, it will have a negative affect on all of us. My priorities are different from yours.

My advice: If Bawney offers to push in your stool for you.. RUN!

He'd turn the stool upside down and share it with his friends.

Congressman Frank, should men who engage in a behavior that takes more years off your life than smoking have to pay higher premiums?

Ooooh, excellent question!

My question would be this: "Congressman Fwank, how many times does one have to flush a turd like you before you finally disappear?"
