Barney Frank & Barney Fife - What's the Difference

If anyone has listened to Barney Frank recently and at the same time watched the meltdown of the financial system, one can't help but think that barney Frank is about as effective as a member and now leader of the House Finance Committee as Barney Fife was as deputy sheriff of Maybury. Neither Barney's had the slightest idea how to do their jobs, neither had the gumption to admit their shortcomings. and when times got tough Barney Fife tended to shoot his pistol off in his holster. Barney Frank shoots his mouth off and makes himself look as silly as his alter ego. The biggest difference between these two is tat Barney Fife's incompetence is intentional and makes us laugh. Barney Frank's incompetence is a result of his blind partisanship and makes us poorer. America loved Barney Fife. Americans who understand the financial crisis in America loathe Barney Frank. Frank has earned the nation's ire. He was asleep at the switch as his pet projects Fannie and Freddie crumbled taking the US financial system with them. Frank blames everyone else for his failings. Does anyone wonder why no one respects the US Congress. Barney Frank is leading the move to the bottom of the barrel, and he is the only one in the country too obtuse not see the obvious. What a loser, how can this guy still be in congress, he is a disgrace to us all.
