HomoQuotable – Barney Frank

“I can sum up the Republican agenda in nine words: Burning the flag, spurning the fag and earnings that lag.” – Barney Frank, speaking to the Florida GLBT Democratic Caucus, who did not invite Florida’s Democratic Senator Bill Nelson, due to his support of Florida’s gay marriage ban. (via NY Blade.)

Trivia: As a freshman Florida state legislator, Bill Nelson was the keynote speaker at my high school graduation in 1977. The following year I volunteered on his successful campaign for the House of Representatives.
