Bwaney Fwank twowing in the twowl! Maybe he wants to spend more time with Chris Dodd?
What left wing degenerate will Massachusetts voters dig up now to replace him?
If he ever wants to return to Politics he could move to California where he could win easy election to any office. Or, he could be King of the Castro.
We'll probably see in the future the opening of hundreds of Bwaney Fwank Memorial Bath Houses financed by "Fanny May". Hell, maybe the Military will get Special Services to set them up on base.

GolfBravo I suspect Barney will simply move down to K-Street like most of the crooks Congresscritters to be on the direct payroll instead of the retainer.

Bielat pushed him to the wall last time. He actually had to go out and campaign and spend some serious cash. Rub elbows with the great unwashed and spend his own money? Ewww...didn't sign up for that. With the redistricting, he'd have to go out and do it again, and a lot of the cities and towns he picked up probably weren't too crazy about Barney representing them.

Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) will announced Monday that he is not seeking re-election, CNN reported Monday morning.
Frank, the ranking member of the House Financial Services Committee was the architect with Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) of the sweeping financial reform bill that bears their names. And will always be remembered for ruining this country to the best of his abilities. FOAD

He knows his connections with Fannie and Freddie will be all over the news during the election cycle and even he might have a real fight this go around. The nation is better without him and I simply wish there was a way to bill him for the damage he's done, even if its not complete sacrificing his generous congressional pension would be a start.

...remember he gets to convert his 'reelection campaign' money to personal use after he leaves Congress. Why blow it on an iffy gamble at the polls?

CrazyFool, while I agree with the sentiment I don't think any politician is going to follow through on that, otherwise we'd already have heard a lot more about his role in the collapse.

With both of the most destructive democrats gone (dodd and frank) Obama can deflect the mess on them during the election.
I will give barney credit for one thing; he wanted to make housing affordable for everyone. Now that they are practically free in some areas (like Detroit) his work is done.
"I already said that if he wants to use a teleprompter, then it would be fine with me. It has to be fair. If you [were] to defend ObamaCare, wouldn't you want a teleprompter?" Gingrich asked.
"Now, just for a second I'm going to go in the detour and I'll try to explain why I've been and he'll say yes. There are two reasons. The first, is ego. Can you imagine him looking in the mirror? Graduate from Columbia, Harvard Law, editor of the Law Review journal. [Against] the greatest articulator in a Democratic book?"
"How is he going to say that he's afraid to be on the same podium as a West Georgia College student?"

As I said before, this would be a brilliant stunt. When Bammo declines, as he surely will, stage the debate with just the Teleprompter. Have it spew all of Bammo's tired lines. Newt will knock it out of the park.

ION CHINA DAILY FORUM > PUTIN IN WARNING TO WEST.
Vlad warns the US-West not to interfere in Russian elections [where he is once again a candidate].
[EX-POTUS BILL "WHY-YES-THE-POTUS-ELECTIONS- WERE-STOLEN-FROM-BUSH-AND-DOLE" CLINTON here].
Because nothing proves righteous electoral legitimacy + corruptionism like formal Fed investigations into whether one had sex, or not, wid blue-dressed, "portly pepperpot" WH Babe interns.
[The Hill] Democrats in the Senate will push a plan this week to extend an expiring payroll tax cut, making up the lost revenue by imposing a surtax on Americans earning more than one million dollar, Sen. Chuck Schumer Senator-for-life from New York, renowned for his love of standing in front of cameras. Schumer has been a professional politician since 1975, when disco was in flower. said on Sunday.
"The first thing we're going to do when we get back this week is put the payroll tax holiday on the floor in the Senate," said Schumer (N.Y.), the number three Democrat in the Senate on NBC's Meet the Press.
Republicans have expressed a willingness to extend the tax cut put in place under President B.O., but want other parts of the budget cut to offset the cost -- not a new tax imposed on the people they argue create the most jobs.
But forcing Republicans to vote against lower taxes for middle-class Americans in order to protect the tax rates for wealthier Americans allows Democrats to draw a clear line in the sand that they believe they can use to frame the argument against Republicans in 2012.
"If it doesn't pass once, we're going to put it on the floor again and again," Schumer said.

You are such infantile little rubes. And what the HELL is wrong with New York? Electing this pathetic dung assed creature to represent you to GOD and the World? Sad.

"millionaire" tax = small to medium business tax. Won't bother the really big guys with their accountants and tax shelters, not one bit. But it will screw the people who create real jobs for working class.

Of course, the additional funds collected from the millionaires will go into the general fund, not into the Social Security quote lockbox unquote.
"pay for". English is such a flexible language.
SS is in trouble - so what do they do, they decrease the revenues. Idiots.
And the average Joe will hardly notice the change in his take-home, so it's not much of a stimulus. Just the usual pander for votes. The people paying SS are the ones with jobs, by the way, not the ones who can't make ends meet because no one will hire them.
