"We have a serious constitutional problem."
I wondered when they were going to get around to this. Better be careful. The marxists may not have the absolute unending power that they thought they had achieved. Next card - do we really need elections? Maybe we need to pre-screen candidates, like they do in Iran.
Frank is the biggest jerk and bully in Congress. He has no shame in bald-faced lies and berating people for telling the truth (see his recent faux outrage over the notion that Brown might not be seated). He is even worse than Chuck Schumer.
But here’s the deal, Barney. If you don’t like it, run for Senate.
God created everything, including idiots.
Drudge often does that .. Andrew Breitbart
got his start in web politics with Drudge.
Remember all that hemming and hawing from the Rats defending filibusters as an “American Tradition” when they wanted to use it against Bush’s judicial nominees?
But God does say not to sleep with men.
He’s introducing new legislation “The Leave No Child’s Behind Act”
God didn’t intend for man to pack fudge either. Thats what machines are for.
God didn’t intend for men to try to reproduce themselves in the backsides of other men, either.
Bwah bwah bwah bwah!
I’m surprised anyone could understand what he was saying.
Barney Frank is a little dictator with a Napoleon complexe.
Frank is correct.
During judicial appointments debates in Bush’s final term, John McCain assured us that that we had to keep the filibuster, that it was critical to the proper function of the universe, so he put in place his gang of some number or other.
I, on the other hand, and many others on FR, kept urging they use the nuke option. The pubs didn’t do nukes.
Now we’ll see if the Dems feel the same way. The first one who upends the filibuster sets precedent that will upend it for the future.
I have never agreed with the filibuster, and I do think it is a rule that thwarts the intent of the Constitution. And that makes that rule a de facto amending of the Constitution.
New Agency Proposed to Oversee Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae (New York Times 9-11-2003)
The Bush administration today recommended the most significant regulatory overhaul in the housing finance industry since the savings and loan crisis a decade ago...''These two entities -- Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac -- are not facing any kind of financial crisis,'' said Representative Barney Frank of Massachusetts, the ranking Democrat on the Financial Services Committee. ''The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing.''
Barney F...rank lied when he blamed the Bush administration for the failures of Freddie and Fannie.
He's corrupt to the core.
The next time the Democrats are in the minority, the filibuster will be revealed to have been inscribed on Moses’s tablets.
This November.
Just like every other member of the House of Representatives.
Except in prison. You get a pass for dat.
