Massachusetts Congressman Barney Frank caused a scene when he demanded a $1 senior discount on his ferry fare to Fire Island's popular gay haunt, The Pines, last Friday.

Frank was turned down by ticket clerks at the dock in Sayville because he didn't have the required Suffolk County Senior Citizens ID. A witness reports, "Frank made such a drama over the senior rate that I contemplated offering him the dollar to cool down the situation." Frank made news last year when he was spotted looking uncomfortable around a bevy of topless, well-built men at the Pines Annual Ascension Beach Party.

...the required Suffolk County Senior Citizens ID...

The existence of such a requirement is more of a story that Barney being a dram queen.

God is punishing us.

Having once been part of the problem, I think you're right. Sorry men like you have to suffer along with me.

So Barney Frank wants to ride a ferry at a discount.

He must ride a lot of ferries.

This one fits him better:
