Barney Frank Will Move to Defund War Under Democrat President
Barney Frank Will Move to Defund War Under Democrat President
House Financial Services Chairman Barney Frank (D-Mass.) told Cybercast News Service on Tuesday he will move to end the Iraq War with an immediate termination of funding if a Democrat becomes president next year.
"I will move to cut funding immediately," said Frank. "I have already done that. I voted against the war and voted to cut the funding. I would hope a Democratic president would put in place a plan that would begin a total withdrawal."
So far, neither of the Democratic presidential candidates, Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton, has been willing to unambiguously commit to a plan to remove all U.S. troops from Iraq by 2013.
When the Democratic candidates were asked by NBC's Tim Russert, during the Sept. 26, 2007 debate, if they would pledge to withdraw U.S. combat troops by 2013 if they were elected president, neither Obama nor Clinton would make the pledge.
"I think it's hard to project four years from now," said Obama. "It is very difficult to know what we're going to be inheriting," Clinton said.
When Cybercast New Service asked Frank if he believed the U.S. would be out of Iraq by 2013, he said he cannot make any guarantees but that he will do his best to make sure that it happens.
"Read the Constitution," he said. "As an individual member of the House, I cannot guarantee anything like that, but I can guarantee you that I will continue to support a withdrawal well before 2013."
House Ways and Means Chairman Charlie Rangel (D-N.Y.) also said it is not possible to set 2013 as a definite deadline for withdrawal. "I would say that anyone who gives a guarantee should be committed," he said.

In Barney Frank’s world.
Running a male prostitution ring out of your basement = good.
Supplying our young men and women bullets and body armor in the heat of battle = bad.

Barney Frank--notice the BF initials (oh how much fun we could come up with making up silly names for him!) is nothing but anal dwelling butt monkey! He has lost all his marbles and doesn't know his head from a hole in the ground. He is mean, cruel and down right strange.
Why would anyone want him running anything? It boggles the mind.

The difference between Barney Frank and Ted Kennedy isn't much, in the state where sodomy is considered following to close, they're tight ends on their team.

If a Democrat is elected President then I hope that Barney Frank and all the other attackers of the Bush Administration's Iraq policy put their legislative vote where their anti-war mouth was and immediately defund the war. Let Barack Hussein Obama (or Hillary Clinton) be forced to implement what they have promised the voters all these years to get elected.
If the country is stupid enough to elect an anti-war Democrat as President they would have made their own bed and should be forced to sleep in it.
