Gobi was under court supervision as a convicted felon with a prison record Ã???Ã???Ã???Ã???Ã??Ã?¢?? in which he gave false information. Most damningly, the investigation found that Gobi ran a prostitution ring from Frank’s home. In his defense, Frank asserted he knew nothing of Gobi’s illicit enterprise.
The Democrat controlled House voted 408-18 to reprimand Frank after a heated debate during which some Republicans demanded expulsion. They pointed out that the claim that Frank did not know of Gobi’s criminal activities was incredible to say the least."[/quote]

Wait, you don’t care that he broke the law? Harbored a criminal? Aided and abetted a criminal for an extended period of time in criminal enterprise by giving him shelter, food, and money? Used his congressional authority and position to get the criminal out of legal issues? And more than 80 bucks mind you, 20,000. (Didn’t report it to the IRS, which is also a crime) A criminal who was giving false information to a court?
Fuck that. He needs to be absolutely out of office. I don’t care if he’s gay. I care that he’s a piece of crap.[/quote]
Absolutely. It doesn’t matter if prostitution offends your personal sensibilities Pitt. He is an elected official, a representative of our government and of its people, and should be held to a higher standard. He had no regard for the laws of the nation he was in service to. [/quote]
Why should he be held to a higher standard ? I can understand corruption or vacating an elected post. But punishing some one that is breaking a law that is anti constitutional is not on my agenda
[/quote]
I understand your view on that, but as a public official who represents the American people, he doesn’t have the luxury of choosing which laws he wants to follow and not follow. For example, Frank should be held to a higher standard than the typical college kid who knows cannabis is an illegal drug under U.S. law but chooses to consume it regardless because he feels the law is unjust, or unconstitutional.

Yes.
He is Wesley Mouch incarnated.
People say Ayn Rand could not have written convincing characters to save her life and then you turn on your screen and there they are, IRL.

The better cover the pulpit with plastic when he comes up to blither. Nobody spits more when they talk than Barney Frank.
He’s really stupid too, I don’t know how even democrats vote for him. Aren’t there other, smarter democrats to vote for?

I can’t imagine why anybody, man or woman, would ever want to fuck him. He’s ugly and stupid. Don’t looks count at some point? Don’t gay people have some taste?
I am not gay, so if I can tell your an ugly dude, you’re a really ugly dude 'cause most of the time I cannot tell.

Hardly.
Her female heroes were the idealized versions of herself, she might be considered the caricature of all her heroes, male and female because compared to them she was lacking, but she certainly was noone trying to drain society to gain power via the government.
That she truly despised and she never did anything similar.
