Rep. Frank lashes out over accusations that Mass. Dems would stall a Brown certification
washington Times-Water Cooler ^ | 1/12/10 | Kerry Picket

Posted on 01/12/2010 8:04:26 PM PST by paltz

House members returned from their recess over the holidays today, and health care legislation was the number issue on the agenda. The Senate race in Massachusetts, though, could change the dynamics of the debate, should GOP State Senator Scott Brown prevail next week. The Democrats risk losing their 60-seat filibuster proof majority with a Brown win.

However, while the special election for the Massachusetts Senate seat previously held by Ted Kennedy has yet to be decided, the Brown campaign has already charged that Massachusetts Democrats will find a way to keep Mr. Brown from being certified, should he win, before the final vote on health care legislation happens in the Senate. Fox News spoke to Mr. Brown about his concern on this issue.:

"When I heard ... the machine, not only locally but nationally, is trying to manipulate the process and make sure that if I'm elected, a duly elected senator, I can't be seated in an effort to vote on this important piece of national legislation, it made me almost sick to my stomach," Brown said.

"Everything I've heard right now I don't like very much," said Massachusetts Senate Minority Leader Richard Tisei, noting the secretary is signaling he will "drag his feet"

"That is the stupidest thing I've been asked in a long time. That is insane, the suggestion could only come from a demented right wing source," erupted Representative Barney Frank (D - MA)

Hey Bawney, Secretary of State William Galvin said federal elections require 10 days for certification, the other day.
But when the special election for Marty “Term Limits” Meehan replacement was held, Nikki Tsongas was not only certified in 40 HOURS, but she was also sworn in. So you tell me if the democRAT machine will do everything in there power to delay Scott Brown being certified and sworn in, WHEN he wins. You are just trying to buy Harry and Nancy time to screw America again.

Oh by the what hows your boyfriend doing? You know the one who lived with you while he was in charge of Fannie Mae, while it was in free fall and you said it was sound.

Judging from the intense emotional reaction of Rep. Frank (Demented-MA) only proves the old adage, "where there's smoke, there's fire."

It would be a good idea to win big. It diminishes the effect of voter fraud and recounts.

” “That is the stupidest thing I’ve been asked in a long time. That is insane, the suggestion could only come from a demented right wing source,” erupted Representative Barney Frank “

Pretty funny, considering that the person who started all the speculation about this was interim Senator Kirk, Kennedy’s emergency replacement, stuck in with a last-minute double-reverse switcheroo of the rules that had been changed only a few years before (at Kennedy’s behest, mind you) in order to, at all costs, preserve Democrat hegemony. It would serve the bastards right if it all brings the Party of Privilege down. I hope it does.

Frank was, is, and always has been, a LIAR! The Atty General has said himself he would not be certified right away.

Liberal feces will be pulling every trick in their book to keep Scott Brown from winning. Ask for volunteers to watch every move they make; expose every instance of intimidation and voter fraud and demand prosecution. Organize teams of poll watchers.

They’re digging the bodies right now and will be busing in everyone they can to vote illegally. They will stop at nothing; absolutely nothing to keep him from winning.

I recommend that whoever wins Barney Frank’s seat buy a new chair as you wouldn’t want any STDs. Hell, the same goes for Ted Kennedy’s seat.

Okay, Bwaney. Will you apologize if Brown DOES win and the powers that be on Beacon Hill DO in fact stall?

When are the people in the whatever district of Mass going to throw the Jodie Dallas clone Barney Frank out with yesterday's garbage, as they should have done 20 years ago?

His remarks remind me of the people with their heads in the sand who still say that the idea that obamacare will institute age-based rationing of health care and cause the deaths of tens of millions of people is "ridiculous:" and a "right-wing conspiracy theory".

It's time for ALL the American people to WAKE UP, and "think the unthinkable". It CAN happen here!!!! Under the Third World muslim would-be dictator obama and his evil band of utilitarian anti-human creeps, it IS happening, and soon it will be too late to stop it!!!!

As at Lexington and Concord in 1775, the people of Massachusetts have a unique historic opportunity to stop the march of evil. Vote for Scott Brown on the 19th (a week from today) in overwhelming numbers, and show the creeps that their time is up! Resist any attempt to delay Scott Brown's certification. Flush Bonnie Fwank down the drain. Just say NO to corrupt politicians, to DeathCare, to Muhammedanism, and to Stalinism!!!!
