Euphemism of the Day

Dave Weigel really has gone native, as in this comment on the embattled Barney Frank's interview with the Washington Times:

*Frank has long avoided the WT, ever since an expose on his personal life that offended him in the early 1990s.

Offended HIM? It offended everybody, Barney!

Hell, I'm offended every time I see this fatuous little man on television.

Tim*| 10.2.10 @ 1:32AM

Hey Barney The Banking Queen , Stop Scarin' The Horses .

PattyMor| 10.2.10 @ 2:16PM

I pray that Mr. Bielat can defeat this distructive little troll. Barney belongs in jail for all the financial havoc he has caused.

Cindy| 10.2.10 @ 3:42PM

How has this man managed to stay in office with all of the ethics issues such as:
prostitution occuring at his apartment by his lover he first paid for sex with, to his affair with a key executive Herb Moses, an executive for the now-government controlled Fannie Mae all while Herb was formulating exotic loans.
This is without considering the devastion caused by the Community Reinvestment Act while Barney is on the watch.

Cindy, Barney's a liberal--that's how the little freak has managed to stay in office.

At least he is not a RINO ! Imagine if he were a Rino with a mere 56% ACU rating. That would be so much worse ! Right ?

Occam's Tool| 10.4.10 @ 1:22PM

Cindy: Barney is a Massachusetts Democrat. Harvard and MIT and Boston U and Boston College and Tufts...all love him.

Eric Cartman| 10.3.10 @ 2:05AM

Okay, this has nothing to do with Barney's election, but it may explain why so many liberal men are Gay. I mean, if all you had to chose from in liberal womanhooddom were gals like Maddow and this person:

What would YOU do? It's not Barney's fault - it nature.

Jack Bauer| 10.3.10 @ 6:52AM

Oh, thank you so much for the photograph of the woman with the 'Tom Selleck.''

I guess that's what happens when you go to the Saddam Hussein Beauty School?

I hope they charge this person with Failure to Comply with the Iowa mustache-offender registry.

SoCon| 10.3.10 @ 4:48PM

Don't pretend now, Jack! You and Eric need to 'fess up. Those lovely liberal ladies are the stuff dreams are made of for red-blooded American men like you.

Jack Bauer| 10.4.10 @ 11:26AM

Sure, he/she/it is a fox!!!
