barney frank knows his stuff????

"These two entities—Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac—are not facing any kind of financial crisis," said Representative Barney Frank of Massachusetts, the ranking Democrat on the Financial Services Committee. "The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing."

when they put politics aside, it has been leading Republicans like Bob Barr, who say Barney knows his stuff.

I guess your comprehension skills are in the gutter with your values.

the Frannie/Freddie bs is so yesterday. Take whatever you want out of context and make your case. Fact is it is GOP opponents who say Frank knows his stuff.

whenever you post -- you look like a fool

What I like about Barney Frank:

His knowledge. He is obvioulsy an intelligent man
His passion for his conviction. A trait I wish all of our politicians had.

What I dislike about Barney Frank:

His refusal to see where he is wrong, when he is wrong.
His inability to prevent his ideology from dictating his decision making.

What I like about Barney Frank is that he is a FUCKING QUEER, with his boy friend running a QUEER PROSTITUTION RING from QUEER Barney Frank's home.

I like that about the QUEER Barney Frank

truth is Gobi didn't run a prostitution ring -- he turned tricks while Barney was at work.

sort of like some women do when their husbands are at work.

 

[gautama]

I like Barney Frank.

All the fucking queers do.

SUMMARY: In his Wall Street Journal column, Karl Rove falsely claimed that Rep. Barney Frank "labeled" President George W. Bush's "proposals" for reform of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac as "inane."

In fact, Frank's remark came in response to Bush's assertion that "Congress needs to get [Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac] reformed" by passing Bush's "robust reform package" before Fannie and Freddie could expand their mortgage portfolios.

The New York Times reported that in an interview, Frank "said that the president's comments were 'inane.' 'Tell the Republicans to stop blocking the bill,' Mr. Frank said.'' -Rove falsely asserted that Frank called Bush's Fannie, Freddie reform proposals "inane"

who blocked Bush's 'reform'?

you're delusional

An August 11, 2007, New York Times article reported that in an interview, Frank "said that the president's comments were 'inane.' " The article continued: " 'Tell the Republicans to stop blocking the bill,' Mr. Frank said. If the president 'is saying that "I don't want to support any increase until we pass the reforms," then you pass the bill and the bill takes care of that.' ''

But in the Post op-ed, former director of Bush's National Economic Council Al Hubbard and former Bush communications director Noam Neusner falsely claimed that Frank "said that the president's suggestion for a strong, independent regulator of Fannie and Freddie was 'inane.' " In Frank's letter to the editor, he wrote of that statement, "The truth is exactly the opposite of what they sought to convey"

-Rove falsely asserted that Frank called Bush's Fannie, Freddie reform proposals "inane"



poor yurt, can't tell spin from fact

So now, if you don't think much of Frank you're a homophobe?

Hillarious... these lefties are such one-trick ponies. And so utterly predictable.

Newman claimed on his program that in 2003, Frank "was defending Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac because he's an incompetent moron, and now Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, you know, they're trashed, and Wall Street is on the verge of teetering into total collapse." In his column, Green similarly referred to Frank as "the Democrat who has headed the House Financial Services Committee in the U.S. House and who has been one of the principal architects of the failed lending policies of the huge mortgage agencies Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae."

Newman and Green failed to point out that, as Colorado Media Matters has noted, in March 2007 Frank introduced H.R. 1427, a bill to create a Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) that would have "general supervisory and regulatory authority over" Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and would be directed to reform the two companies' business practices and regulate their exposure to credit and market risk. The bill passed out of the House Financial Services Committee under his chairmanship the same month and was passed by the full House of Representatives in May 2007.

Among other things, Frank's legislation, titled the "Federal Housing Finance Reform Act of 2007," directed the FHFA director to "ensure" that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac "operate[] in a safe and sound manner, including maintenance of adequate capital and internal controls" and to establish standards at those two entities for "management of credit and counterparty risk" and "management of market risk." The legislation also required the FHFA director to "establish standards by which the portfolio holdings, or rate of growth of the portfolio holdings, of the enterprises will be deemed to be consistent with the mission and the safe and sound operations of the enterprises." In addition, it authorized the director to "require" a regulated entity "to dispose of or acquire any asset, if the Director determines that such action is consistent with the purposes of this Act or any of the authorizing statutes." The House passed H.R. 1427 on May 22, 2007; the Senate did not act on the legislation.

-Conservatives consistently get it wrong on rank and the housing issue

[Procrustes Stretched]

poor yurt, the taking out of context while avoiding the whole history of Frank's attampts to do what was right.

the right does nothing but distort and deceive on this issue and people like yurt are left in the land of delusional thinking.

Rove falsely asserted that Frank called Bush's Fannie, Freddie reform proposals "inane"

KOA's Newman, Chuck Green in Chieftain attacked Rep. Frank for financial crisis without mentioning his support of stricter oversight
