My favorite #BarneyFrank memory #2 was "point of parliamentary inquiry! Will I be out of order if I call the gentlemen from Iowa a fool and a liar?" House chair pro tempore: "yes, you will be out of order." Rep. Frank "then I will not call him a fool and a liar!"

When Americans talk about gay politicians, the name Barney Frank invariably comes up. Frank, who died at 86 on May 19th of congestive heart failure, was the country’s preeminent gay political figure for decades.

Rest in Power, Representative #BarneyFrank! In his memory, I'm sharing my favorite stories from my interactions with him while working in Congress. #1 - during NAFTA debates, he explained that for free trade to work, workers overseas need to be able to afford our stuff. That means they need unions.

Still the perfect clip as a response to young gays acting like they invented gay rights because they listened to a Lady Gaga album and learned two lines from The Devil Wears Prada. #BarneyFrank
