All of your video below was shown on CNN today. There was no spinning or editing. They showed all of this... and more actually.
This is what I saw several times today:
This was clearly edited to be a puff piece for Frank. Why does a man with such a checkered past, continue to get such a pass? The man works for those
people, not the other way around. There were some legitimate questions that he responded to with insults and summary dismissal, because he knows his
pals in the MSM are going to spin in his favor.
And Barney was right to say that having a conversation with her would be like having one with the dining room table.
No actually, he doesn't. He works for the people and has no right to insult these people. You cannot just dismiss everyone because there are a couple
rowdy people. They have a right to be. Frank and the democrats have controlled congress since 2006! Where are the results?
What's funny is that the local news here actually left out was the comments he was responding to. For example, the lady he called the
equivalent of a dining room table had just asked him why he was voting for Nazi policies, but they didn't show that did they?
Though I have to admit, even the reporter said that "it was mostly substance sprinkled with some silliness."
Is this really something new? Where were all of you during the last 8 years? It was quite common for Bush to be compared to Hitler and a fascist for
his policies. What has changed? Why do you think the rules for discourse has suddenly changed? Democrats set the bar for how the party out of power
acts and now you don't like it. Barney Frank is completely surrounded by the kind of groups that drummed up that sort of dissent.
Was he crass? Only as crass as the lady who was speaking to him. When he was shouted at, he responded in kind.
Hes an elected representative of the people! He is not the royal dictator he and you seem to think he is.

OMG I love that! Democrazy. 
That's perfect!
