Looks like Barney Frank, the grumpy gay left-winger, is the only Democrat willing to house-train Howard Dean.


Looks like Barney Frank, the grumpy gay left-winger, is the only Democrat willing to house-train Howard Dean. The DNC chairman, addressing a convention of Massachusetts Democrats in Lowell, said that "Tom DeLay ought to go back to Houston, where he can serve his jail sentence down there." Interviewed on the convention floor, Frank demurred. "That's just wrong.... The man has not been indicted. I don't like him, I disagree with some [sic] of what he does, but I don't think you, in a political speech, talk about a man as a criminal ..." We assume, from the silence of other Dems, that they either agree with Dean, or consider him a spunky, incorrigible poop-dropper.
