Good, they lean too far left. This should bring them closer to the center.

I’m surprised it took this long. Guess he misses people pretending to care about what he has to say. John McCain will be this same way; the guest who never leaves. “I’ll do it without a salary! C’mon guys, I need a TV show here!

It will be a race to see which is the biggest boring blow hard, Frank or Joe Kernan. If this is CNBC’s answer to cratering ratings, they should be off the air by next summer.

Yes as they teeter-totter completely around the axis to the right. Are you kidding me! Frank is the left of Castro for crying out loud, don't even get me started on what he and Dodd did before and after Dodd-Frank.....

IOW

the democrat party/obama admin puts a new political officer (see ussr) on the cnbc set to surpervise news to ensure proper party propaganda.

I REALLY wish FBC would ditch imus and provide real business news.

Is there any truth to the rumor that A&E is signing Barney Frank to star in a new reality show called Homo Dynasty?

This gets them closer to the old soviet socialist
system of government journalism!
Or the Nazi ministry of propaganda...

Bawney’s qualifying business experience was helping his boyfriend operate a homosexual brothel out of his house in D.C.

Shades of Bagdad Bob.... They must feel a large "Crisis" is coming and they need a verbose Guberment insider to explain the solution that must be done....

This thread is just aching for a Lazamataz contribution.

A V-man or an A-man, for Barney the choice is clear.
