Barney Frank: Congressional Royalty

Here's the video clip of Barney Frank summarily dismissing a voter's questions regarding his support for Wonderboy's socialization of health care.



Technically, it was apparently not a 'town hall' meeting. And the woman apparently led with a clear hatred of the president.

But what's clear is Barney Frank's sense of superiority and invulnerability as a sitting House member. He castigated and insulted the woman quite freely.

This is how elected representatives are supposed to behave? He seems to share quite a bit of attitude with Diane Feinstein and Arlen Specter.

The former had police arrest old people who camped out in her office to protest her support of Wonderboy's health care bill, while the latter lost control of himself when questioned by a voter.

It seems the new Democratic response to honest, impassioned voter expressions of frustration are to demonize them as hate-mongering, bombastic, and 'going too far.'

Even Wonderboy has resorted to this tactic in an attempt to declare that some voter feedback, especially when not what he wants to hear, is no longer democratic free speech, but hate speech and undemocratic.

Funny how free speech is coming under fire when it disagrees with the Democrats in power, isn't it?

And scary, too.
