Typical left they think a man who broke the law by using a male prostitute is a great man. A man who should have been jailed and any other person in mass. caught using a prostitute would be jailed. But instead barney asked him to move in with him and ran a male prostitute ring out of his house.
barney ignored the housing crisis and is responsible for the bill that forced banks to give loans that would later ruin the economy.

the lefties declare a man who illegally used prostitutes and ruined the economy is a great man. Shows how off base what they think great men do

At 71, he's entitled to retire...there are no indictments coming down, right?

My favorite Barney Frank story has nothing to do with Capitol Hill. It was the time he screamed for his $1 senior discount on the Fire Island Ferry (he didn't have a Suffolk County, NY Senior Citizen's ID with him). I just thought that was really funny. He's sort of like Charlie Rangel. Even though I don't agree with them on just about anything, they are such bigger than life characters, I will miss them when they are gone.

There is only one item remaining on Barney's list,
A full pardon from Barry Soetoro (a.k.a. Barack Hussein Obama)

For those who understand, no explanation is needed. For those who do not understand, no explanation is possible.

Wow, the Architect of the Second Great Depression is taking his millions and leaving. Guess his work is done.

Wow. This is really a disgusting statement - even by RWNJ standards.

I don't know. As much as I loathe and despise Barney Frank, there certainly have been a number of high ranking and high profile democrats that have decided not to run. Almost all in districts that are competetive for the GOP to win.
Maybe he was "persuaded" not to run. I can believe it, he has to have lots of dirty laundry, literally( ewwww) and figuratively. But dirty politics is still dirty politics and more proof how badly the two party system is broken and corrupt.
