Frank To Harvard Grads: 'You Can Call Me A F*g' Unless 'You're In The Banking Industry'
Breitbart TV ^ | 05/24/2012 | Breitbart TV

While speaking to Harvard Graduates this week Barney Frank took time to hammer a woman who challenged him at a town hall two years ago over his ideology. He then went on to explain that legislation he was promoting would not prevent pastors from speaking their views at the pulpit. "You can still call me a fag," Frank said and cited that at the time he was chair of the Finance Committee so he "wouldn't advise it if you were in the banking industry."

I happened to be in Harvard Square yesterday not knowing that it was Harvard's Commencement Day.From the looks of (and the sound of) the demonstrators outside the main gate of Harvard Yard I suspect that Baaaarrrney was one of the sanest ones in attendance.

So much is upside down, at least compared to the common wisdom of just a few decades ago, that I've had trouble making sense of it until I remembered the "Think Outside the Box" signs they used to put up at work.

I'm learning that much depends upon the point of view one initially takes, if any of the recent events are to make any sense.

Our unwalled, mostly sleeping village continues to choose poorly and then celebrates their choices until the alarm goes off.

Then, hits the "Snooze" button and heads back to dream land.

Ignorance is bliss...keeping us that way is good for business. Whose?

Breitbart (Source) censored it. I followed their lead.

And on a personal note, since I am in the banking industrym I won’t call him a fag. I’ll call him a fart-knocking queer.

Heh heh. Two things. Did I read this right? Barney hammered a woman?  Not likely. And I do like - really do - the veiled threat he made here.

What happens if some banker called him a fag? What would Bawney do? Impose a Frank-Dodd Act?
 
Oops. Been there-done that.
