Democratic Convention speakers list and immigration - 09/03/12

... immigration, but not as bad as others * Barney Frank - Massachusetts Congressman among other things, voted to let banks accept the Matricula Consular card, which is almost always an indicator that the bearer is an illegal alien * Eva Longoria - Obama Campaign Co-Chair * John Hickenlooper - Colorado Governor strong illegal immigration supporter ( peekURL.com/vAT4E8q and denverpost.com/ci_16037664...

Glenn Reynolds still supports childish mocking of politicians rather than intellectual challenges - 11/03/10

... childish, thuggish advice [1]: BARNEY FRANK SURVIVED SEAN BIELAT’S CHALLENGE, but as this “train-wreck” victory speech demonstrates [2], it really got under his skin and he’s lashing out in what looks more like an angry concession speech. I think Barney Frank is actually hurt that he had to take it, not just dish it out this time around. But the Tea Party movement has not yet begun to dish...

2010 Elections: Tea Party wins some, loses some, does somewhat less damage than feared - 11/03/10

... favorite Sean Bielat lost to Barney Frank. * Rep. Raul Grijalva is barely leading Ruth McClung in Arizona. If she didn't have TP-style fringe economic ideas and simply concentrated on how Grijalva encouraged a boycott of his own state and more or less represents the interests of the Mexican government she'd probably be doing a lot better. * TP favorites John Boozman (Arkansas) and Nikki Haley (...

Immigration questions for Sean Bielat - 10/25/10

... parties favorite who's challenging Barney Frank for Congress from Massachusetts. His immigration position follows [1], followed by some questions for him. In the following, each number in parens indicates a question below. I'll invite him via Twitter [2] to answer these questions, and the reader is invited to do the same: @SeanBielat. I believe in an America that protects our citizens' civil...

Tea party leaders, complaining about NAACP "racist" charge, call Obama's policies "socialist" - 07/14/10

... representatives names (in the case of Barney Frank that's been confirmed, in the other cases it hasn't). Due to those incidents as well as their obvious failure, the tea parties have been on the decline since then, and then in May and June the Koch family and Dick Armey of Freedomworks distanced themselves from the movement. Note also the smear in the very name of their group, implying that...

Glenn Reynolds promotes ineffective tirades against politicians (borderline harassment; alcohol) - 04/13/10

On Sunday, Barney Frank was flying from L.A. to Boston when two sisters on the flight - apparently ophthalmologists - tried to engage him in debate about Obama healthcare. When he declined, they began shouting at him, and apparently alcohol was involved (link). Per one of the passengers: "The women had been drinking, and they were crying and shouting... They were clearly the antagonizers, and Mr...

Does Barney Frank think the Mexican government is like the Nazis? - 10/07/09

... video at peekURL.com/v94ikj9 Rep. Barney Frank says: "If America had the kind of immigration policy that some people would like today my whole family obviously would have been wiped out in the Holocaust." I don't know who should be more offended: those of us who support our immigration laws and who want reduced immigration, or the Mexican government. For both groups, the idea that millions of...

Barney Frank deflects semi-tough questions - 04/07/09

... recent exchange between Rep. Barney Frank and a student at Harvard University concerning TARP on the video below [1]. I don't have enough knowledge to tell who's telling the truth, but it's clear that Frank "won" or at least didn't lose. For over two years, I've been urging people to do things like this, albeit a bit better. Here are a few tips based on the video for those of you who want to...

Rep. Ruben Hinojosa wants millions for the National Council of La Raza - 06/02/07

U.S. Rep. Ruben Hinojosa (D-TX) wants the feds to underwrite the National Council of La Raza ("The Race") to the tune of $5 million per year for 2008. In 2009, that would double, with the National Council of The Race receiving $10 million from the federal government thereafter.

Deval Patrick knew about New Bedford immigration raid in February ("humanitarian crisis") - 03/14/07

... Kennedy, William Delahunt, and Barney Frank supporting "grieving" illegal aliens. Now, a different picture is emerging. Namely, the Patrick administration had months of foreknowledge of the raids and seemingly every chance in the world to try to prevent the "crisis". From this: "We had an open and frequent exchange of information to make sure that (the state Department of Social Services)...

Kerry, Kennedy, Delahunt, Frank support illegal immigration (New Bedford, Congressional investigation) - 03/13/07

For further proof that Democratic Party leaders do not support our laws, here's the caption of the following photo: Sen.

"222 House Members Put Interests of Banking Lobby Ahead of Homeland Security" - 09/15/04

... Representatives Michael Oxley (R-OH) and Barney Frank (D-MA), allowing banks and other financial institutions to accept the Mexican matricula consular document in lieu of valid U.S.-issued documents, FAIR issued the following statement: "Once again, Congress has placed the priorities of a powerful special interest ahead of homeland security interests.
