Props to Barney Frank

To say I’m not Barney Frank’s biggest fan is an understatement of monumental proportions, and I was livid when I heard he wanted to investigate the investigative journalists who broke the ACORN scandal. But, I feel it’s important to give props to the opposition when they do something right, and that’s what Barney Frank did less than 24 hours after signing a letter calling for the investigation, admitting that he didn’t carefully read the letter:
[T]he motivation of those who went to ACORN offices and initiated the discussions involving prostitution are wholly irrelevant to the fact that ACORN’s employees’ actions were outrageous and further indication of an organization that is at best poorly run in many regards. The defense against sting operations is not to ban them, but to behave properly so that they do not reveal as they did in this case clear evidence of gross impropriety.
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
