I thought George Bush drove the car into the ditch. News flash for Obama, George wasn't driving the car, you and your liberal friends were driving drunk again. They should all be in jail.

Few people know what Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) is, so he keeps up his push for Gov’t intrusion while appearing to back off from it. Barney is no fool, although he seems to think that the average voter is. This congressman needs a thorough public flogging for his treasonous lack of public financial stewardship, and our president and democratic Congress continues to blame a republican president for this mess?

Also, the current "forgiveness plans" that make paying down a foreclosure easier, make it easy for someone in the future to just stop paying. These politicians who cater to the poor and divert the risk to the private sector MUST GO. No offense to the poor - they have huge challenges in everyday life as I have experienced too. The poorer portion of our population should not be enticed to pay over their heads with high risk mortgages when there are other portions of their lives that need attention. While the politicians with their whitened teeth smile, a knife is being shoved in your spine regardless of your wealth situation. No risk for these guys. It’s definitely time to vote ‘em out. @Freedom of Speech TX,

I cant tell if it is due to the ignorance of the voters or is there just a glut of marxists, limiting different types of politicians that can be sent from that state. Either way something drastic needs to be done. The list of idiots from Mass. is long and distinguished. Can we just nuke Mass.?

I wish these people in Mass would wake up when they go to the polls to vote. This piece of work has never worked in a real job let alone the rest of them. All they want to do is spend our money, rush through bills before they are even read. We know the drill. The American people are waking up and hopefully before this Administration takes us down a path that we can never recover from. Let's flip the house. Need to stand together. We are the people. We are a great nation. We may be pushed down but we'll pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off and prevail. GOD BLESS AMERICA AND RAISE THE FLAG. Frank must spit on himself when he speaks.

There is a Communist mind set that is impervious to reason. I'd say it is a mental illness but since 1954 the American Psychiatric Association has defined it, so naturally a fully blown maniac like Barney fell through the cracks. The good old John Birch Society nuts had it right, the Commies were taking over. Oh! Wherefore art thou Senator McCarthy! We need you.
