(CNN) Rep. Barney Frank, D-Massachusetts, raised eyebrows last month when he told a constituent at a raucous health care town hall event, "Trying to have a conversation with you would be like arguing with a dining room table."
Now Rep. Pete Stark, D-California, is involved in a similar instant YouTube classic, telling a town-hall participant over the weekend that he wouldn't "waste the urine" to pee on the man's leg.
First reported by the San Francisco Chronicle and confirmed by a YouTube clip of the event, the longtime congressman made the remark after the participant launched into a long, but calm, litany about government inefficiency when it comes to nation's health care system. The man concluded his remarks with warning Stark not to "pee on my leg and tell me it's raining."

Pete Stark [raving mad]:
Who says, "poor John Pete"? Don't everybody sob at once. My God, if I went up in flames, there's not a living soul who'd pee on me to put the fire out. Chorus: Let's strike a flint and see.

It really does reflect badly on us as voters that politicians like Barney Frank and Pete Stark are still in office after decades of such hate.

Truer words were never typed and printed. We have to do something about that . . . educate their voters and donate to candidates opposing the likes of Barney Frank and Pete Stark.

Not true.. I would pee on Pete Starks leg.. and tell him its raining.. Don't you think we should be addressing little Fortney by his real name? Especially when peeing on his leg!
After all, it's only respectful... :-)

If I ever find it convenient, I’ll pee on his grave.
