This Youtube video of Barney Frank at a town hall is going
viral. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYlZiWK2Iy8 When he asked the nitwit, "On what planet do you spend most of your time ?", I thought, I'll bet rdean knows the answer to that question. ;-) -- Ken Fortenberry |

And FWIW, while it might look good to you Obamaniacs (and, um, frankly, I agree with ol' Barn about these nuts), it wasn't a shining moment for him or the Dems, given the setting and context. He should have either politely rebuffed her or just ignored her altogether - even those there to bitch at him booed her - and he would have looked more like a reasonable Rep (which, generally speaking, he is) rather than a somewhat prissy smartass sissy (which, generally speaking, he can be, just generally speaking, not in public). The anger and (fully justified) suspicion over all this "health care reform" shtick is real, and **** like "Bawnee Fwrank tells 'em off" doesn't help... And the bloat in the various versions being put forth sure as hell doesn't help - WTF does road construction and farmer's markets have to do with (supposedly) getting health care to those who (supposedly) have none?

The anger and (fully justified) suspicion over all this "health care reform" shtick is real, and **** like "Bawnee Fwrank tells 'em off" doesn't help... It was nice to see a Dem with the stones to call the nitwit spew "vile, contemptible nonsense" because that is precisely what it is. What "stones" does it take to do that? It was just a stupid thing to do in such a setting. And I think it does help to speak the truth in the face of irrational, fear-mongering lies. Not only does it help, it is absolutely necessary. No, it isn't. It isn't even somewhat prudent. She wouldn't have converted anyone to her cause had he let her ramble on for 5 minutes, but by acting in a way that plays into the "middle America" (in US terms) stereotype of a northern liberal smartass Jew queer, he _potentially_ damaged his own. Standing in front of a angry mob looking like a gobsmacked, deer in the headlights (Arlen Specter) doesn't help anything, that's for sure. And being as full of **** as a Christmas goose (Arlen Specter) doesn't do much for "the cause" either...and being a sorry lying sack of **** (Dodd, Kennedy) kinda tinges things, too... The problem is that "health care" doesn't really need reforming, insofar as the services themselves are concerned, it's the payment systems (really, the "wealth redistribution" associated with "health care") that need a complete top-to-bottom overhaul...unfortunately, not many folks are gonna like what it would take to really fix the situation...
