Barney Frank is an Idiot

I know this won't come as a shock to most thinking people, but the Frank-meister doesn't have a clue. Not only did he play a key role in causing the housing bubble that led to the recent recession, and not only did he pull a Pontius Pilate act and wash his hands of the whole thing, now he thinks the solution to the God-awful mess that is congress is to eliminate the filibuster rule. That'll really end the rabid partisanship that's driving the federal car off the cliff.

Personally, I think anything that slows down or stops congress from passing more laws is a good thing. As the saying goes, "No man's life, liberty, or property is safe while the legislature is in session."
