Barney Frank Competes with Jesus Christ « NewsReal Blog

Barney Frank Competes with Jesus Christ « NewsReal Blog: "This past week two of the most oft-used names among the talking heads of cable news shows were Congressman Barney Frank and Jesus Christ. I’m sure this is the first time Barney and Jesus have been mentioned on the same television show: Barney Frank for fighting back against his constituents who are angry about the prospect of government-run healthcare, and Jesus Christ because suddenly leftists want to use Jesus’ name to justify laws they think are moral obligations.

On Wednesday and Thursday Congressman Frank was featured on every show from Sean Hannity to Rachel Maddow and everyone in between. Of course he was vilified by those on the right and was made a conquering hero by those on the left for finally standing up to those “racist, Nazi, anti-American” people who are so bold as to ask questions about the cost of health-care. Keith Olbermann (when discussing Frank) went so far as to say on his “Worst Person in the World” segment Wednesday night, that if you compare Obama to socialist regimes of the past, then that makes you a supporter of Nazism and Hitler – oh yeah, and an anti-Semite. I’m not sure how to follow that logic."
