I watched the clip, it was a little flip but nothing to make a big deal about. He was just saying he wasn't going to give up his position on the issue to a reporter!

Spence, Frank is nothing but a politically entitled, arrogant, loud mouth pompous jerk who looks down on any of his constituents who don't see things his way. He has shown time and time again that when someone has the audacity to question him, he gets pissed off and belittles them with petty insults. He's one of the greatest arguments for term limits in Congress.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

You could replace "Frank" with just about any politician.

Not true, JD. As much as I don't trust most of them, I don't expect to see or hear them acting like him. Most of them are good enough liars and/or actors to come across better in public than Frank.

Right on!
Nobody took Barney to task for screwing up Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. If he couldn't get that right, he certainly would not get health insurance right.
