Anatomy of a Smackdown: Barney Frank schools Bachman
This is brutal man…brutal[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHQ3cN47Mkc&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.huffingtonpost.com%2F2009%2F05%2F19%2Fbarney-frank-michele-bach_n_205529.html&feature=player_embedded[/youtube]
Frank uses his seniority on Bachman and I can only imagine how it goes over that a guy like Barney schooled her.
I’ll bet she doesn’t even know he schooled her because she’s so clueless.
Saw this yesterday…
I am not a huge Frank fan (as you will not find anyone as beholden to the banks in congress), but this was a classic.
She needs to stick to venues where they don’t ask questions meant to do anything aside from set up her next point… go back to O’Reiley!
And you could tell it pained Dobbs not to jump in and help her… his show had it out for Acorn nearly as much as Mexicans before the election.
No thread on the new fuel efficency standards? The Big Three CEO’s refused to do it while they collected their huge bonuses. So did GWB, but his bonuses were tied to oil and gas. This President just changed the landscape for the better.
The changes will start with smaller cars and trucks, and improvements to the internal combustion engine,according to industry analysts, including new technology like direct fuel injection and high compression of the air-fuel mixture, that will make cars and trucks more efficient.
Car companies are rewiring vehicles so components such as air conditioners and power steering pumps are powered by electricity rather than by the engine, saving fuel. Thank God for Obama.
And they’re developing computer-controlled transmissions with six or more gears, adding efficiency, and rolling out more gas-electric hybrids — among the few cars sold today that meet the 2016 standards. Right on. Progress is made by voting democratic.
good point jd do you have an article you are directly referring too?
John Doe, hugs your way!
Elections are the ONLY way to change things. Vote Democratic!
The clip reminds me why I don’t watch TV.
Frank is a longwinded blowhard but he knows what he’s talking about and makes a good point.
Was Dobbs trying to stifle his laughing at Bachman?
good question. I think he was smirking at the Acorn thing. He hates Acorn and he really seemed like he was trying to actually be a mediator
She just doesn’t have a clue. I guess the folks in here district either had brain freeze or a brain fart to reelect her.
