With Barney Frank, I am reminded of the popular old Hollywood eatery, Barney's Beanery-and you know what comes from beans, right?
"Uhhhh....yeaaah."
Here is the latest Barneyfart from April 23, 2010 with the Frankfarter himself discussing the SEC porn scandal and blaming it all on the Republicans because of their "lack of regulation".
This is what Barney Frank had to say about regulation in 2003.
So if a bunch of SEC employees are watching porn on their government computers, it must be the fault of the Republicans!!??! Lack of regulation???
Where does one begin when discussing the blatant hypocrisy of this dishonest boob? Do I start talking about Barney's apartment in Washington that was used as a male bordello by his live-in boyfriend while Barney was doing the nation's business on Capitol Hill? I guess that was the Republicans' fault too.
"Don't worry about those parking tickets. Barney'll take care of 'em."
That's right.
Or do I talk about that Fannie Mae exec (Herb Moses) who was Barney's boyfriend while Barney was overseeing Fannie Mae et al? Was that the fault of the Republicans too? Talk about conflict of interest!
That's right.
That's OK, Barney. Just keep blaming those Republicans. The boys (and gals) at NBC will eat it up every time. When all else fails...blame the Republicans.
"That's right."
Oooops. The lower video should be "What Barney Frank was saying in 2003 and 2005" not 2008.
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing that he is never confronted directly with these videos with what he said then. He is one of those most directly at blame for the enormous build up of worthless mortgages which later became the "collateral" for the worthless bonds and the other derivative instruments.
Thanks for pointing that out. 2003 it is. Frank, more than any other person bears direct responsibility for the meltdown. He was the one forcing those lenders to hand out $ to people who could never pay it back.
