Rep Frank at it again

Open mouth and insert foot. Seems to be the only thing Barny Frank is good at. Now he is calling Antonin Scalia, who is one of the smartest and best Supreme Court Justices, a homophobe.

Massachusetts Rep. Barney Frank called Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia a "homophobe" in a recent interview with the gay news Web site 365gay.com.

The Democratic lawmaker, who is gay, was discussing gay marriage and his expectation that the high court would some day be called upon to decide whether the Constitution allows the federal government to deny recognition to same-sex marriages.

"I wouldn't want it to go to the United States Supreme Court now because that homophobe Antonin Scalia has too many votes on this current court," said Frank. The video of the interview is available online.

Frank's office did not respond to a request Monday to expand on his remark. Scalia also had no comment.

Scalia dissented from the court's ruling in 2003 that struck down state laws banning consensual sodomy. He has complained about judges, rather than elected officials, deciding questions of morality about which the Constitution is silent.

Controversial topics like gay rights and abortion should not be in the hands of judges, he has said, calling on people to persuade their legislatures or amend the Constitution.

Scalia is 100% right. People like Barny Frank want to push there extreme homosexual agenda down our throats. But they know they can't keep on getting re-elected, well he probably could, but the majority of elected officials couldn't if they supported his ideas. So the only way to get his agenda through is with the court system. But judges shouldn't have political agendas.

More judges should idiolize Scalia. He doesn't have an agenda, he bases his decisions on the Constitution. And last time I checked that is how Judges are supposed to rule.
