Barney Frank Demonstrates Precisely How to Handle Townhall Wingnuts
Last night Barney Frank held a health care town hall meeting in Massachusetts. Near the end, a woman stepped to the podium and asked, "Why do you continue to support a Nazi policy?" Frank then eviscerated her completely.
It looks as though all of those shouting matches with Bill O'Reilly have taught Barney Frank a thing or two, because I don't think he could have handled this more perfectly. He just sort of swatted the woman, who was holding a poster with a picture of Obama altered to look like Hitler, away like a troublesome fly, albeit in that slightly bitchy and condescending manner that is oh so very Barney Frank. It's beautiful.
