Boos for Barney Frank


The crowd gave a big boo to Rep. Barney Frank.

At a rally in Fayetteville today, John McCain mentioned the Massachusetts Democrat while talking about the recent bailout bill.

The crowd interrupted to boo Frank, making Xs with their inflatable red noisemakers.

I get this complaint every time one of the candidate visits. If I am at a major event like this, I will post multiple times from the event, regardless of the candidate or their party affiliation.

As for the Barney Frank thing, I thought it was interesting that folks even knew who he was enough to boo. I didn't think he was that well-known outside the Beltway insider types.

Big friggin deal. It was a Republican rally for McCain-Failin. What did you expect? A bunch of rabid Republicans boo an openly gay Democrat congressman. I just don't see why that is worth a blog posting. Let us know when something tolerant, intelligent, and enlightened happens at a McCain rally.

There's a first. A charge of media bias AGAINST Obama. Pretty funny.
