Barney Frank Gets Tongue-Lashing on Plane Posted by Sean Alfano
Congressman Barney Frank endured the not-so-friendly skies Monday on a trip back east from California as a pair of doctors upset over the recent health care overhaul confronted the Massachusetts Democrat, the Boston Globe reported.
The verbal row began, apparently, when the doctors, two sisters who are ophthalmologists and were headed to a conference in Boston, began criticizing the bill -- calling it an "Obamanation" -- upon noticing Rep. Frank nearby.
"They wanted to talk to me, but I apologized and said I like to read and watch on planes," Frank told the Globe. Frank said the women talked louder and then his partner, Jim Ready, told the women, "If you're trying to be bitchy, you're doing a good job."

A truly unfortunate headline.

“Please ! Ladies! Can’t you see I’m trying to have sex with this young male flight attendant??? Try to have a little decency!!!”
“...what the hell is wrong with the people of Mass to let a guy like Frank stay in office...have they forgotten that this state was once a cradle of democracy in 1776?”
Good question! I think BF enjoys politics because this way he gets to bend several MILLION people over, instead of just one.
Oh, and his initials are “BF” too. You can’t make this stuff up!
Very unfortunate turn of phrase on thread title. Very unfortunate... and sickening. But (no pun intended, Barney) I am glad to see him confronted by whoever is willing to do it. Just PLEASE don’t call it tongue lashing....
I avoid commercial flights. I don’t get airsick. But if I ever found myself in such proximity to Barney Frank, I would find a way to miss the barf bag and hurl on him.
“Gee Mr. Frank, I couldn’t help it. Something turned my stomach and you know nobody can just change their orientation.”
Good! And since I am certain that Barney Frank sticks out like an Ooompah Loompah everywhere he goes, this is likely to continue.
I’d tag him the lash-er, not the lash-ee.
That’s a really, really ugly picture.
Would you prefer “got his ass chewed”?

Somewhere in that state, Sam and John Adams are spinning in their graves...
I’d prefer he didn’t make headlines ... but, you’re right, the “ass” headline would’ve been worse.

Every doctor I’ve talked to hates this bill. I’ve talked to 5 or 6 docs, they all say this is a disaster in the making. I went from being able to call in my scripts a week before they ran out. Then it turned into 3 days a few months ago. Now it’s the DAY they run out I can call it in. My guess is, there will be a time in the not to distant future, that some people will not be allowed to get there meds at all. If obama doesn’t care about botched abortion where the baby is born alive and allowed to just die, he won’t give a rats behind what happens to anyone else.
“Somewhere in that state, Sam and John Adams are spinning in their graves...”
.....AMEN!
“Barney Frank sticks out like an Ooompah Loompah everywhere he goes”
OMG, ROTFLMAO!
Does this make him a member of the "Mile High" club?
The self anointed
Mixing with unwashed rabble
Peasants revolting
Hot tar and feathers
These images I hold dear
No doubt he’d like it
