10 Things You Didn't Know About Barney Frank

Reader Comments

Twelve million Americans facing foreclosure want to know when Barney Frank is going to be convicted.
He and the Dems used the letter of the law to allow bad banking loan standards and fast-forward banking foreclosures through shady mortgage processing companies. And now he is hiding behind the letter of the law to save his own skin and obscure how he has profited.
The economic result is an obstructed economy where small amounts of capital cannot be obtained from venture capitalists for small start-ups, which means no new jobs in the private sector.
Frank planned this strategy. The Gay/Marxist agenda Barney Frank represents IS cultural warfare and supports SOCIALIST STATE CAPITALISM.
Frank’s only regret is that he didn't rip off enough from middle-class taxpayers to completely cripple the American economy.
Frank is a chiseling, Marxist crook from Jersey City who learned his dirty politics from Frank Hague's people, one of the most corrupt machines in American political history.
Anything put forward by Barney Frank will only lead our country further down the path of ruin.
The only thing that Frank understands about capital formation is how he wants it to further his influence.
Stop giving Frank a platform for his arrogance and corruption.
State capitalism stinks almost as much as Frank.

''it's big money that is supporting his opponent''
Its also big money that is supporting Barney Frank, you don't get elected to congress with small money... Wall street firms are this jerk's main funding source.

Barney Frank gave us credit card protections--if you don't want him in office, I hope you also give up that protection. Barney Frank rescued many people from foreclosure--if you don't want him in office, then give up that benefit as well. He needed to clean up a mess caused by people with his opponent's perspective, and it's big money that is supporting his opponent. Those of us without a whole lot of money, and those of us who care about suffering of our neighbors, need Barney.

How Barney Frank Helped The 9/11 Hijackers 9/22/04
http://tinyurl.com/yjeprex
Newly Discovered Documents Show that Barney Frank Has Significant Blame For 9/11
"A recent “Freedom of Information” request has revealed that nearly 10,000 documents still exist that the 9/11 Commission were told were destroyed, and this may not fare very well for Barney Frank. According to Scott Malone of NavySeals.com and Christopher Law from the Public Education Center, these documents show that the CIA knew that several of the hijackers on 9/11 who were in the country were associated with Al-Qaeda. But authorities were powerless to deport them because of an amendment to an immigration law that Frank had authored...."

Smartest guy in congress, he has a rapier wit but is a bit too accommodating to the banking industry

One of the biggest parasite in Washington,too bad, that he is not from China.This problem would have been resolved a long time ago.

This guy is symptomatic of what is wrong with our current party system.
He does exactly right by his Party, and maintains his office by delivering 'goodies' to his district.In his eyes, that his job.
How the actions of Party loyalty & career maintenance damage the country are lost to most people, simply because,as a rule, most Americans are optimistic, and have an abiding belief in the "good" of people.
These folks, nurtured ,cajoled, and corrupted by the aims of their Party and their affiliations , are NOT the folks that we should send into high office.They stay too long,and the system is thoroughly corrupting & corruptable.
We usually break up monopolies in this country. When will the citizens demand the same of the political parties?

Barney Frank is the poster child for term limits. on tape in 2004 stating to a bank regulator that there is nothing wrong with Fannie and Freddie that the problem is the regulator. Incomptent, corrupt and stupid, he is exactly whats wrong with this country today.

Bad loans began with deregulation, 30 years ago. As president, Reagan began federal DE-REGULATION in l980, after doing it at state level as Governor. Banks stopped being audited to make sure they had enough money in the vault to cover money they loaned out. We had anti-trust laws and banking laws, but he encouraged non-enforcement. He was called "the Law and Order President" but we see what happened. He, as leader of the Republican Party, created this nation's biggest national debt. But he said Democrats were the "Tax and Spend Party." Maybe some of his poor decisions came from Alzheimer's, discovered too late, that made him take bad advice. He said he asked God for advice. No public official should to do that.
