Barney Frank to MSNBC Host: ‘Don’t Condescend to Me’

"We dished out billions of dollars to Wall Street and they're doing the bonus dance right now. That wasn't in the fine print, Barney, and you know that," MSNBC's Ed Schultz said.

I hate both of these individuals. Ed Schulz has the head the size of a refrigerator and totally hollow.

Larry   November 9th, 2009 - 10:53 pm

It’s official, Barney Frank hates everybody. Except boyfriends who grow weed, that is.

Shiori   November 9th, 2009 - 11:04 pm

Was Ed Schulz actually kinda-sorta acting like a journalist??? He must have had a brief moment of clarity because he ate some meat for breakfast or something? Wowie.

Joe   November 9th, 2009 - 11:05 pm

What a pathetic old man.

God bless whatever is left of America after the boomers are through rejecting the world that their parents sacrificed so much for them to inherit.

JHardyM   November 9th, 2009 - 11:06 pm

When will they get rid of this guy(?)? He(?)is the worst thing that the world can see that reporsents this nation. Of course then comes Obama, Polasi, Reed, Axelrod, Gibbs, etcs.

Ed Schultz backs down like the big girl that he is. In addition, Ed must have not gotten the memo this week to look the other way. SEIU should be paying Ed a visit soon.

Bawney Fwank… Mmm, mmm, mmm.

Look close and you can see digested corn stuck in Bawney’s teeth. Now what in the world would you have to be munching on to get digested corn in your teeth. Look closer… Is that a hemorrhoid on top of his shoulders.. why, yes… yes it is!

Veritas   November 9th, 2009 - 11:25 pm

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! These guys that are fighting each other over which one wants to restrict freedom more!

My Barney lies over the ocean
My Barney lies over the sea
My Barney never wears dentures
When he gives a humjob to me.

Veritas,
That would be “weestwict fweedom.”
I tought I thaw a puddy cat. Wait a minute, it’s that sillwy gerbil in my a$$.

Hey Joe 11:05 Dont assume all baby boomers are spoiled

Roger   November 9th, 2009 - 11:38 pm

What is the definition of smoke???
Barney is a liar, he said he only smokes cigarrettes in that police report.
Left out the poles…

Roger   November 9th, 2009 - 11:46 pm

Sounds like a flaming debate to me….
Opps, did that host say when Tom Tacredo was leaving “Firery debate” or “flaming debate’???

Terry   November 9th, 2009 - 11:47 pm

This dummy Schult buys in to the “save the economy” lie. How irrelevant he sounds. This was welfare to banks – that has nothing to do with saving the economy.

To save the economy, CLOSE THE BORDERS to EVERYTHING. Build what we need here. Could not be simpler.

katy   November 9th, 2009 - 11:51 pm

Why is Barney rocking back and forth so much? Sombody get that man some hemorrhoid cream.

Good Gawd…what a criminal.

MadMike   November 9th, 2009 - 11:54 pm

Very few descend as much as Barney. Don’t be upset though, Mr. Frank! You can always take bong hits with your boyfriend and forget that interview ever happened.

payton   November 10th, 2009 - 12:00 am

Barney Frank, the biggest corrupt moron! Ethics you putz!

Webster   November 10th, 2009 - 12:07 am

I have a great threesome picture of Bwaney Fwank, the prophet mohammed, and a large pig. Its great, the prophets face is all wrinkled up as the swine penetrates him. The pig looks to be the only nice one of the bunch though.
Barney boy, you get to “go down” in history as the man that toppled the US economy. Hope you figure that out before you go.

Jeremy Stark   November 10th, 2009 - 12:10 am

Wow. What state does Frank represent???,which ever one it is, the voters there need a massive AA style intervention by the American people to ask them “Why do you keep voting this a$$-clown into office, what are you people thinking???”

MadMike   November 10th, 2009 - 12:23 am

Tax more so you can spend more, huh? Taxation is good? Good for the criminals who are stealing from us! Scumbags like Frank produce absolutely nothing while stealing from taxpayers who produce everything. Kick these reprobates out on their asses!

deek   November 10th, 2009 - 12:24 am

Barney Frank is just a bitter, nasty man–and he’s taking out all his repressed emotions on the American people by destroying our economy and taking away our rights and freedoms.

Barney represents the worst face of a public servant–and he needs to leave Washington for good.

if you take away bonuses the market will not do well, do I get ticked off at huge bonuses .. yes …. but that”s what they get paid, to earn that bonus they have to bring in 100’s times as much.

Vince P1974   November 10th, 2009 - 2:15 am

OMG I live in the same country as these people.

checkit   November 10th, 2009 - 2:56 am

What a play script. To appear that msnbc is being hard on a dem.

Both are Morons, Barney favorite words Tax, taxation and poo poo.

This was nothing more then a show for the msnbc audience liberals to appear as if they (msnbc) were a real News network like Fox is in going after the facts. What they are trying to do is give cover to the dems for the bonuses. It’s not our fault…

Anything related with Barney is a lie and tied to some form of corruption.

Mark Johnson   November 10th, 2009 - 2:59 am

I can’t stand listening to that guy. All that comes out is crap and spit. He doesn’t let anyone finish and doesn’t stop talking himself. Beside that, he said poo-poo too many times. Just creepy.

Conservative in Dayton   November 10th, 2009 - 2:59 am

None of us can rest until Barney Frank and Chris Dodd are both behind bars for crimes against America. What they did to incinerate the housing market and create a banking crisis requires that they be held accountable for the collapse of our economy.

duncan   November 10th, 2009 - 5:12 am

Deek 12:24 Barney isnt living for public service,He into self service Taking care of his whims in life.
Toss em all out next time

Gramps   November 10th, 2009 - 5:48 am

Barney Frank along with the others belong on the receiving end of a 357 magnum. Clean up America starting with these morons.

FastFacts   November 10th, 2009 - 5:54 am

This fool is always trying to talk his way out of trouble. His mention of Chris Dodd was false. Chris Dodd place a part in the bill mentioned that would allow large bonuses to go through. If you remember, he then tried to push the blame and come to find out the WH through Rahm, actually asked him to put it in there. Funny how that was left out. Read all about it on http://www.americanparchment.com. If you don’t remember you can check it this way, don’t take my word.

Lee   November 10th, 2009 - 5:58 am

Ok, here we go again. We can tax them.. Hmmmmm. Another thing Ed, you might want to look again, the moron doesn’t have the teeth… Man, I sure hope that this old f*cking freak gets aids, massive heart attack, stroke, and really, really suffers. Any one of the three would work for me.

Arie   November 10th, 2009 - 6:36 am

Ed Schulz really acted like a reporter? i am shocked. An Frankie missed the point, there should have been conditions on the bale out for wall street.

Steve in Pa.   November 10th, 2009 - 7:23 am

Of course the shareholders don’t want these big bonuses paid out. The less the bonus the more dividends pay out. Of course these brokers are the ones who made the shareholders money in the first place. If you give shares instead of cash that might solve some problems in the short term but the p/e ratios might soar. A vicious circle. I cant stand that rump ranger Frank, what wad.

Lady liberty   November 10th, 2009 - 7:27 am

Vince P1974 November 10th, 2009 – 2:15 am

it’s worse than that …you live in a country with the people who vote for idiots like Frank…

Ha Ha   November 10th, 2009 - 8:03 am

When I miss what happened on MSNBC I can always come to this web site and find out.They post more stuff from MSNBC than they post from Faux.I thought this was a right wing web site.

Notasheeple   November 10th, 2009 - 8:03 am

And we even wonder why our country is going down the toliet? Sponge-Barney Square Pants with all his other corrupt Minions need to be held accountable for turning the USA into a third world country….How about a Tar And Feathering party???

Eddie   November 10th, 2009 - 8:12 am

Ed, ED! Back off my boy. Have you forgotten that your network bows down to these folks from Washington? You’ll find yourself selling doughnuts at a 7-11 if you don’t watch yourself. Critical questions are NEVER allowed on mainstream media networks and you MUST remember that! Especially when talking with self-annointed royalty like Barney!

Fwanks and Beans   November 10th, 2009 - 8:24 am

Wow…2 idiots

Lady liberty   November 10th, 2009 - 8:46 am

Your comment is awaiting moderation.

Ha Ha November 10th, 2009 – 8:03 am
Well clearly your not paying attention….Breitbart shows all sides…fair and balanced ever hear of it?….What you are observing on this site is the majority of people who come to this site are patriotic Americans who love freedom & liberty.. and don’t spew socialist crap!

Are you kidding me?

Rocky   November 10th, 2009 - 9:24 am

Sounds like Pravda and a member of the Polit Bureau arguing about the government not screwing the people enough.

Desiree   November 10th, 2009 - 9:28 am

I’m with Gramps! Fwanks and Beans, great name for this thread.

David   November 10th, 2009 - 9:33 am

To hell with both of these cretins. Get an “I will not go silently into tyranny” tshirt from——EnemiesinWar.com

Richard Ballicker   November 10th, 2009 - 9:41 am

Since Barney Fwank is from Massachusetts, home of many Irish folks, he coined a phrase for when you give him a B.J. He calls it:
“Kissing The Barney Stone.”
Bummels rocks!!!

BawnyFwank   November 10th, 2009 - 10:22 am

Bonus or Bone Us?

bk   November 10th, 2009 - 10:36 am

Seems to me they are both arguing about a horse that already bolted before the barn door was closed. Someone should have closed the barn door before any tarps funds were ever shoveled Wall Street’s way.

H2K   November 10th, 2009 - 10:57 am

Because of the lack of viewership on MSNBC, we never would have seen that interview had it not been for Breitbart.

…and nothing will become of it. Liberal outrageous indignation means absolutely nothing. These guys left the studio and smoked a joint together all the while laughing at how stupid the viewership is….

NEOFREEDOM   November 10th, 2009 - 11:01 am

POO POO , that is what is coming out of Queen of the Banking System at both ends of his orifices ! Bend over Barney, Ed is coming hard.

Barney Fwank   November 10th, 2009 - 11:17 am

I don’t wear dentures because:

a. I’m on a liquid diet, and it’s easier to digest that way.
b. I love sounding like Elmer Fudd.
c. My government health care plan doesn’t cover dentures.
d. It enhances my ability to give hummers.

If you answered b and d, you are correct, sir.

Desiree   November 10th, 2009 - 11:29 am

Everytime bawney fuddpacker speaks, I can almost feel the spit.

J.B.H.   November 10th, 2009 - 11:57 am

Des,
Not a visual I care to envision.

Desiree   November 10th, 2009 - 1:03 pm

Hi James,

How are you today?

BS BUSTER   November 10th, 2009 - 1:34 pm

THANK GOD we have Ed Shultz !!

He is the ONLY WHO IS COURAGEOUS enough TO SPEAK OUT EVERY DAY, so

boldly on these matters and to hold Jack-A$$es like BF accountable in

some way… of course then they come out with such ‘BS’ by way

of ”explanations”, which would be funny, except for the fact that

these are too important and serious issues, which makes TV viewers like

me, MAD AS HELL !!!

GREAT JOB Ed !!!!!!!!!!

HOLD – TRUTH – TO – POWER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

J.B.H.   November 10th, 2009 - 3:01 pm

Des,
A little restless today. My trigger finger is even itchier than usual.

Desiree   November 10th, 2009 - 4:03 pm

Mr. Ballicker,

Love the “kissing the barney stone” line.

I bet you are just full of surprises………

steve   November 10th, 2009 - 4:46 pm

How can a grown man have a plant growing in his house and not know what it was? Did he ever think about asking his boyfriend, just out of natural curiosity? This guy can’t take responsibility for anything. somewhere else

Greg Zotta   November 10th, 2009 - 5:53 pm

Barney talks about taxing/STEALING these peoples money. If the bonus money was earned they should be paid. Barney wants to use the tax code as a robber uses a gun. Just remember Barney and Chris Dodd were somewhat responsible for the housing and banking crisis. Is he in favor of cutting his salary for his involvement in this crisis? There was to be a meeting regarding Countrywide CEO and Chris Dodd but the Democrats did not want to address the problem and snuck out the back door.

HOW CAN A GROWN MAN???   November 10th, 2009 - 8:47 pm

How can a grown man have a plant growing in his house and not know what it was?
________________

Actually, Bawney once had three midgets down his pants for two weeks and claimed he didn’t know it. The midgets had suffocated and Bawney blamed the smell on some bad sausage. So get off the guys back, if ya know what I mean.

And Greg,

Democrats are far more likely to sneak in the backdoor… just ask Bawney Fwank!
