Barney Frank Wants to Roll the Dice Back on Sub-Prime Lending

If you wonder why America is broke, look no further than the individual who wanted to roll the dice on sub-prime lending, that is the Democrat from The People’s Republic of Massachusetts, Barney Frank. In an interview on CNBC, Frank as much admits that maybe sub-prime lending should have been more regulated. Wow! What balls!

America doesn’t need legislators who operate by looking in the rear view mirror. With the sole exception of Frank’s remark in support of auditing the Fed, he offers platitudes that can only be compared to a social misfit. In fact, as I watched this clip, I constantly envisioned Barney collecting tickets and serving soda at a local theatre . . . said with all due respect to ticket takers and soda jerks.

For Barney Frank to effectively absolve himself of the massive and corrupt bankrupting of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae is a sin. For America not to hold him accountable is a greater sin.

This clip runs 18 minutes. WARNING: Barf bags highly recommended!

    Rep. Barney Frank is a poster boy for corrupt politicians! He needs to be ashamed of himself !
    He should follow what Sen. Dodd announced this morning: He’ll not seek reelection!
    GREAT !! STAY HOME !!
    How about America demands accountability from this corrupt politicians: reimbursed the taxpayers or jailtime !

    Somebody needs to tell Frank to retire.  The guy is a moron.

    Cannot stomach hearing this criminal talk.  Shame on him and the whole corrupt DIM-O-CRAP cabal that has looted our economy so shamelessly the last few or more years.

    How do these people look at themselves in the mirror in the morning?  Frank is another “public servant” who makes me want to take a shower after I listen to his on-camera prattle. I was glad to see Dodd make his farewell address, even though the words were self-serving.  Frank should take a cue and do a hasta la vista, too.  These people have destroyed the Democratic brand and helped bring the country to it’s economic knees.

    No pity or sympathy for bold-faced liars!  Scoundrels obviously have no shame.

    Could not watch the clip – can’t stand to listen to that man.  How much more bold face lies do we have to listen to before the public starts asking for the lynch mob!

    Frank is an embarrasment to America! He needs to go away and just talk to table legs all day long and give us all a break!

    what a shame his seat isn’t in danger! what a rude, ungrateful piece of work he is. also he suffers from an endless desire to lecture others when his own house is dirty.

    The people at CNBC should be ashamed of them self for not disputing anything this guy was saying
