"Civility"
One of the Democrats voting "present," Barney Frank of Massachusetts, said, "I think it's bad precedent to put us in charge of deciding whether people act like jerks. I don't have time to monitor everyone's civility."
This was a line in a Yahoo news article. Isn't Barney Franks the queer who was running a gay prositutute ring out of his congressional office?  Last edited by ampaterry; 09-16-2009 at 07:14 AM.. Reason: deleted offensive language |

Re: "Civility"
Between the thread title and the first post I think "civility" is missing.

Wow, I never thought Barney Frank would EVER say anything I agreed with!! Regardless of his 'leanings', he has a point in this instance.

Re: "Civility"
History has shown that Mr. Frank can pretty well withstand any microscope that the media and the bible-thumpers can focus, LOL!
