Bawney Fwank Tired of Reading Things He “Doesn’t Care About”… There’s two things I know for sure Bawney doesn’t read, the bills he votes on and the articles in Playgirl. So I’m not 100% sure what he’s talking about. (Boston Herald)- He’s old, he’s tired and thinks it would be nice to have some free time and not have to read a lot of very boring and very complicated stuff that he doesn’t care about. That’s what U.S. Rep. Barney Frank told three college-age “Roadtrip Nation” interviewers during a July 2009 sit-down in his Washington, D.C., office for the public television program that aired Wednesday on ’GBH Kids. “I’m tired, and I think . . . it’d be nice to have some free time, not have to read a lot of stuff I don’t care about,” Frank said. “But I have this chairmanship. It’s an important time for the country.” Sean Bielat – Frank’s Republican challenger last November – said he wished he’d seen the Frank interview during the campaign. “This was part of the case that I was trying to make – that it’s kind of rote for him at this point, that he’s kind of going through the motions, but he feels like he’s so important that he can’t not be there,” said Bielat, who’s undecided about his own future political plans. “I’m in the middle of stuff, and I just . . . can’t walk away from it,” Frank told the youths. “I’m getting old and tired, and I’m working too hard, and this would have been a great job 20 years ago when I was 50 years old. It’s a lot of work now.” weaselzippers.us
