I R A Darth Aggie;

I didn’t ask that the comment be EXPLAINED to me; I asked WHY such a comment!

Attack Barney Frank for his actions, his policies, his unethical behaviour, etc. But do NOT attack him with gay slurs – that only makes the attacker look like an anti-gay bigot!

The same is true for Obama – attack his actions, etc; but don’t attack him for his race.

The same is true for Pelosi – attack her for her actions, etc; but don’t attack her for her gender.

Stick to the issues, please, as there is no need for nasty slurs

I’ll take great pleasure this year in voting for Mr. Bielat.

But I’ve voted against him before. In 2008, right after Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac collapsed — due, in no small part, to Frank’s support of them, even when the dangers of subprime loans were becoming obvious — Frank ran for reelection on a platform of financial responsibility! Listening to his radio ads, I gagged, I really did.

So I wrote in my wife’s name. At that point, I’d have been willing to vote for Barney the Purple Dinosaur.

Normally, I skip unopposed races; an incumbent with no opposition doesn’t need my support. In this case, I wanted it clear that my vote was NOT going to BF.

And by the way, I couldn’t care less that he’s gay — except for some of his more questionable practices that pertain directly to that.

I do care that he’s an unprincipled, lying, miserable excuse for a human being. I do not want him claiming to represent me.

respectfully,
Daniel in Brookline

Barney is an out and proud gay man. If his “seat” is in “danger”, he may want to obtain some lube.

I’ve been waiting for an opportunity to vote against him for years as have many others. Running unopposed has simply fed his delusional grandiose self-perception.

“Is there a shortage of K-Y in the Commonwealth?”

Could you please explain the reason for such a comment?
