The punchline of almost every joke in DC plans to retire
Yes, all you have to say is “Barney Franks” and people laugh because they remember all of the jokes which had that name as the punchline. Well, the guy is finally retiring…about 30 years too late. Franks is the main reason that no one trusts a word that comes from Washington, well, the main reason now that Ted Kennedy is gone.
I hope the door does hit him on the way out. If it doesn’t, the door will be the only thing that hasn’t hit that ass in the city.

Really? You used to work in DC are you saying you hhit that? Really? I thought even you had standards.
Badoosha!
Holy shit! He must have gotten some bad news from the homefront like they must have found a dead hooker that he can’t deny knowledge of.
So far today:
–Okay, boys and girls, looks like he’s PACKING IT IN!
–Hey, SHIT had to happen sometime!
And as we speak, gerbils throughout Dupont Circle are breathing a sigh of relief.
Problem is, it’s Massholistan. Dumbfucks will just elect a younger version of him.
Will he be able to leave his loyal staffers behind? //VI ducks
“gerbils throughout Dupont Circle are breathing a sigh of relief”. Not to mention, young House pages, oh wait, that particular perversion can’t be LAID at Barney’s feet.
Fannie wrecked’m.
He’s going to be a lobbyist. That, or he raped a female child and there is proof about to hit Newton, Mass.
Maxine Waters will replace him on his committees.
He’s going to be a showgirl at the new casino in Palmer on I-90.
The thing that always bothered me most about Barney Franks is that he never once was appointed to the US Congress. Instead, he was elected and re-elected 15 freakin’ times. That says alot about the quality of the voters generally and in his district, specifically. Come to thonk of it, that’s less bothersome than it is frightening.
His hemorrhoids have prolapsed and have sprung so many leaks they can’t be repaired. Even his doughnut cushion no longer gives relief.
Barney Frank + hot bottom = all you need to know about the state of the Democratic Party.

I still think his HIV has converted to AIDS. But that’s just me.
Maybe he’s going to hang out with Wiener.
I would tell him not to let the doorknob hit him in the ass on the way out, but I think he looks forward to that.
I wonder, though, what happened to make him want to retire? What scandal are we not hearing about?
Flagwaver:
Scandal? Barney has weathered more than one. The media hardly report on it and it’s a hate crime to bring it up in polite conversation. Don’t assume that Barney has any shame, or that he would ever, in any way, pay a price for doing something illegal or unethical. There are too many incidents of illegal/unethical behavior in Barney’s past. He doesn’t care and neither do the media.
1. Barney and his male prostitute boyfriend running a prostitution ring out of Barney’s apartment.
2. Barney writing a letter of reference on his official letterhead to the Virginia parole board, on behalf of his male prostitute boyfriend who was found guilty of producing kiddie porn.
3. Barney’s boyfriend growing pot in their apartment. Barney claims he was so naive he didn’t know what a marijuana plant looks like.
4. Barney getting a boyfriend a job at Fannie/Freddie. He and his boyfriend together conspired to “screw” the national economy.
And after all of that, he has not stepped down. In fact, he’s been reelected time and time again.
Maybe there is pictures of him with a female prostitute and he has been living a lie all this time… He is actually straight…the scandal!
I remember one of my H.S. coaches telling Barney Frank jokes on the bus heading to a game. That was in 1989. And in Massachusetts, I would add:
Q: Did you hear they’re not selling Fenway Franks anymore?
A: Yeah- they’re selling Barney Franks now. Don’t like ’em? Shove ’em up your @$$!
Q: Did you hear Barney Frank got cut by his H.S. football team?
A: Yeah- they needed a Tight End, but he was a Wide Receiver.
AP, you could be right. He said he was leaving DC because he missed his Wiener.
I remember there was a thing on MSNBC about DADT repeal and Frank was interviewed. It talked about him being the first openly gay member of congress, which Up to that point I did not know.
My response: “oh so that’s why he always acts like he’s got a bug up his ass”
He’s quitting for the same reason former Connecticut senator Dodd (of Dodd-Frank infamy) quit–he knows he can’t win the next election and wants the seat to stay Democrat.
Dodd was going to get beaten by Linda McMahon (CEO of WWE(World Wrestling Entertainment)) if he ran. The spectacle of a Republican being elected in a ridiculously Democratic state couldn’t be allowed so he decided to “retire” and CT Attorney General Blumenthal(D) ran in his place. Unfortunately for CT and the country, the gambit worked and CT is saddled with a another “yes-man”.
By the way, Blumenthal is no stranger to “stolen valor” either. He lied about serving in Viet-Nam when he was a marine reservist and then claimed he “mis-stated” things. Even the New York Times thought he was a POS.
