implying Barney Frank was unacceptably rude:

Sean Hannity: The arrogance, the condescension, the battling with the voters.

Neil Cavuto: They're taxpayers, he just doesn't care.

Steve Doocy: Barney Frank starts attacking the same people who put him in office.

I'm willing to wager those same people aren't the ones who put him in office.

As someone with Jewish ancestry, I know if someone shoves Nazi propaganda in my face and starts making Hitler comparisons, it's going to get really ugly really fast.

Mr. Frank handled it a lot better than I would have.

Maybe she thought he would be stupid enough to be outraged and, as a result, see her side.

Whatever her motive or purpose, she sure did make a huge mistake!


:7

There is no "rude enough", so how could there be a "too rude"?

to where discourse is reduced to screaming and shouting. Right wing dumbasses tell the lemmings to go out and shout down your congressman, Frank was just acting like a conservative, arrogant, condescending, attacking. And I highly doubt the little lass put Frank in office.

crap?

I didn't watch Sean Hannity or Steve Doocy or Neil Cavuto yesterday.

I could be wrong though... :shrug: :eyes:

And I think Sen. Frank handled her PERFECTLY. You can't reason with someone like that.

but to call out someone for that attack would be rude.

that these RW nutjobs are allowed to call and compare Presient Obama to Hitler but when the Dixie Chicks said that they were ashamed that Bush was from Texas they were blacklisted.

every right to question health care, especially since no one is getting a straight answer from anywhere even this Administration can't all tell the same story which breeds misinformation. She can question Obama, she can disagree with him on this or any issue and I have no problem but to imply he's essentially Hitler is beyond rational.
In one sense I understand some of the uproar, politicians are 'supposed' to be diplomatic and his response was hardly such. Personally I thought it was a breath of fresh air to see someone actually drop the BS and give it straight.

On a side note is it just me or does anyone else eventually expect a staffer to sit under Barny when he's talking and hold up cue-cards for the audience with the subtitles to understand what he's saying? Eventually I keep imagining a card will eventually come up "???". I'm trying to get through an ear infection and it's harder than normal to understand him.

FRANK: When you ask me that question I am going to revert to my ethnic heritage and answer your question with a question: “On what planet do you spend most of your time?”

You stand there with a picture of the president defaced to look like Hitler and compare the effort to increase health care to the Nazis, my answer to you is, as I said before, it is a tribute to the First Amendment that this kind of vile, contemptible nonsense is so freely propagated.

Ma’am, trying to have a conversation with you would be like trying to argue with a dining room table. I have no interest in doing it.

(There may have been a break between some of these sentences.)

After all, Hannity pals around with Jew-Baiting White supremacists.

The right-wing's cult of victimhood is hilarious, though.

"Fixed" News never stops shocking me. Their idiocy and hypocriticial nonsense is outrageous and ludacrious, yet strangely hilarious. When Bernie Sanders says Fox is a branch of the GOP, he ain't fooling around!

They must love comparing The President to hitler. They seem to get a real kick out of it.
