Barney Frank Dislikes House of Cards Television Series




[From article]
The Netflix breakout mega-hit House of Cards portrays Washington, DC as a nest of ruthless, self-interested hypocrites, advancing their own interests and agendas by capturing the power of government, all the while mouthing platitudes about the public interest. No wonder so many people, including me, love it.
But not Barney Frank. Appearing on Conan O’Brien’s late night talk show (video below), he said, “I’m a great believer in free speech. If I was [sic] going to make an exception, I would ban House of Cards from being shown. It is the most inaccurate, misleading, and unfortunately gives people a bad idea.”

[From article]
On Wednesday, Portland, Ore. police arrested Terrence Patrick Bean, who has been charged with two felony counts of having sex with a minor last year. This man is not just any old guy accused of having sex with a 15-year-old – he's a big-money Democratic donor and liberal political activist with connections inside the Obama White House. Bean raised more than a half-million dollars for Obama's 2012 re-election campaign.
"Bean has been one of the state's biggest Democratic donors and an influential figure in gay rights circles in the state," reports oregonlive.com. "He helped found two major national political groups, the Human Rights Campaign and the Gay and Lesbian Victory Fund and has been a major contributor for several Democratic presidential candidates, including Barack Obama."
A search of the Federal Election Commission's campaign-finance database turns up thousands in donations every cycle by Bean to the Democratic Party's most powerful leaders, including Hillary Clinton, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Sen. Dick Durbin, and Rep. Barney Frank, among others. Photos of Bean posted online show him flying on Air Force One with Obama.
The scandal is escalating. Thursday, according to local media, Kiah Loy Lawson, allegedly 66-year-old Bean's 25-year-old former boyfriend, was arrested by the Portland Sex Crimes Unit for sexually abusing the same boy. After the relationship between the two men ended, Lawson went public with claims that Bean had a practice of secretly videotaping himself having sex with others.

Politician Attacks Newspaper

Re-elected by mindless voters in MA, the Honorable Barney Frank revealed that the Boston Herald is irrelevant. Perhaps but at least the editors there try to inform their readers and taxpayers. Unlike Mr. Frank and the Globe editors who continue to mislead and to deceive the voters. A deceived voter will always vote for a Democrat, because they vote for a media image.

You Can Trust Me, I'm Not Like The Others

"I seen my opportunities and I took 'em." George Washington Plunkett. (1842-1924) Politicians haven't changed. They think they have but they still have their heads up their behinds. Barney is one of many who never held a real job, who went directly from college into politics.

Bank Busters Fix banks?

[From article]
"In its attempt to protect individuals (and businesses) from the consequences of their own bad decisions, Big Government will now try to foresee all possible risks and mitigate them. How noble. How naively Utopian.
[. . .]
A government that can't even pay its own bills and must borrow against the future earnings of people not yet born seems a bad choice to oversee the financial well-being of the nation."

Is Alleged Craigslist Killer a Homophobe?

and

Good Police Work? Where's Integrity?


The Boston Herald fails to provide the most important facts. Is this guy a Democrat [peaceful, gentle, loving, tolerant] or a Republican [hateful, ignorant, homophobic, intolerant? Did he support same sex marriage? If he opposed it that explains the crime. What kind of person opposes equal rights for others? Homophobes and Republicans always show their violent tendencies toward women. Perhaps Boston needs a security fence to keep Republicans and heterosexuals out of the city. [Is this Barney Frank?]

Where's Integrity?


This is good police work. What kind of work found James Bulger? Bad police work. These are best and brightest going to medical school and to law school? Is the candidate's integrity measured when admitted to prestigious grad schools? We hear of how smart and ambitious these people are. But when they show their lack of integrity [Eliot Spitzer, Markoff, Franklin Raines, Barney Frank] journalists seldom mention what is lacking. Intelligence and competitiveness is no match for integrity. When will journalists and admissions officers recognize what is missing?

Barney Frank Leads the Way

Barney Frank Leads the Way

"It's totally arbitrary," says South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford. "If you've got the right lobbyist and the right representative connected to Washington or the right ties to Washington, you get the golden tap on the shoulder," says Gov. Sanford, a Republican.”

“Mr. [Barney] Frank, by his own account, wrote into the TARP bill a provision specifically aimed at helping this particular home-state bank. And later, he acknowledges, he spoke to regulators urging that OneUnited be considered for a cash injection.”

This is the argument against the massive government bailout. In a system where everything is for sale how can anyone expect less corruption? These are venal politicians giving away money. Do you think they will give it away on a rational basis or to promote their own careers? This has the potential for extensive corruption with journalists paying little attention. Instead they continue swooning over the first African American president. Hello he is a politician and worse a Harvard lawyer politician. Wake up and pay attention before this One repeals the First Amendment.

Courageous Capuano Clueless About Eliot Sptizer

Courageous Capuano Clueless About Eliot Sptizer

Before Eliot Spitzer was exposed trying to hide his payment to a prostitution ring, called structuring, his office used the NY State Police to investigate the President of the New York State Senate, Joe Bruno a Republican. The Albany DA, the State Public Integrity Commission, the Inspector General, and the Times-Union (newspaper) of Albany joined in the cover up of this abuse of power. Spitzer’s bank notified Dept. of Homeland Security as they are required to because Spitzer asked the bank not to use his name. Fred Dicker, New York Post reporter and NY’s Attorney General Andrew Cuomo showed integrity and did their jobs. New York is not as corrupt as Massachusetts. They eventually oust criminals in office unlike the Bay State. Spitzer is a graduate of Harvard Law School like Barack Obama, Barney Frank, and Franklin Raines. Chuck Turner is a Harvard Graduate. The New York Post reports the events leading up to Spitzer’s resignation. Stop wasting taxpayer funds and time.

Courageous Capuano expresses concern about why the Feds and New York State Attorney General investigated New York Governor Eliot Spitzer. Why does he join the outrage of the NY Public Integrity Commission, the Albany County District Attorney and the Albany Times-Union seeking to cover-up the abuses of the Harvard Law grad? Capuano laments the atrocities in Sudan by government thugs there. How many of Capuano's constituents live in New York or Sudan? When a constituent petitioned his office for relief from malfeasance in Massachusetts, he pretended not to receive dozens of calls, letters and faxes. That's as courageous as Obama suggesting that Gov. Blagojevich resign.

Harvard School of Lawlessness?

Harvard School of Lawlessness?

Cambridge liberals oppose ICE operations. The same protesters petition the City Council to force developers to hire only long time Cambridge residents and union members. They want the city to be a sanctuary city but they want all construction jobs for long time Cambridge residents. What jobs are left for the illegal immigrants? Why are they permitted to walk when police arrest them for possession of drugs and driving without a license? Why are citizens punished when the illegal immigrants are not? This is unequal protection of the laws. Why do limousine liberals want to enforce laws unequally? They elected a Harvard corporate lawyer governor, who believes in selective enforcement along with the majority of voters in this lawless state. What laws should the unenlightened citizens obey? Crony capitalism destroyed the nation's financial system. In Massachusetts the government is run by crony law enforcement. Barney Frank, Franklin Raines, Barack Obama and Eliot Spitzer are all from Harvard Law School. Obama and Spitzer advocated drivers' licenses for illegal aliens. Should the prestigious school be more properly called the Harvard School of Lawlessness?

A Woman With a Spine

A Woman With a Spine

Noonan provides no evidence to support her statement, "In the past two weeks she has spent her time throwing out tinny lines to crowds she doesn't, really, understand. This is not a leader, this is a follower, [. . .] She doesn't seem to understand the implications of her own thoughts." Palin is known for a quality absent in DC, Massachusetts, New York, most state legislatures and Governor's offices. She has a spine. She is out of place in DC where corruption rules. Noonan joins the elite journalists demanding to hear the standard words and two-syllable issues repeated over and over again. Obama mastered that speech pattern at Harvard. Joe Biden's ignorant gaffes are laughed off. Elitist journalists (liberal and conservative) wrote off ordinary citizens in favor of career politicians like Biden, Pelosi, Frank, Kennedy, and Obama. Palin is an authentic American. She is perfect with all of her flaws.

All Harvard All the Time

All Harvard All the Time

Frank Rich continues playing the race card to protect Obama from
criticism. The Democratic candidate says "I will do something" about
any issue he is asked. Critics are called racists or liars or both.
Rich and others say there is no link between "a former Fannie Mae
executive" and Obama.
But that executive, and Barney Frank and Obama are all Harvard Law
School graduates who show that the degree brings no evidence of
intelligence or ethics.
Governor Palin's comment about Obama "palling around" with Ayers is accurate. Obama began his political career in Ayers' living room. Obama's wife and Ayer's wife worked at the same law firm.
Rich wants not only his opinion, but he wants his own set of
facts. His essay is purely irrational.
