Everything else aside, I've respected Barney Frank in the past for speaking his mind in direct, cutting fashion. He's good at it. Particularly when, despite his anti-war stance, he called out Eason Jordan at Davos in 2005 for slandering U.S. troops as murderers. So what's with this? Bush practicing "ethnic cleansing by inaction" in the wake of Katrina. Very clever. But as Bryan at Hotair notes, there's no way that isn't a genocide charge. And there's no way that isn't cynical race-baiting.

Why is it that lowly Home Depot employees have to take a drug test and congressmen don't?

Do ya think that publically acknowledged recovering alcoholics in the White House should have to take drug tests too?

I think ALL elected and appointed officials, local, state, and national should take drug tests regularly.

I am with you Purple Avenger. Why does it feel like the more powerful, influential, or rich you are, the more the rest of the world lets you get away with stuff us peons can't? Hmmmmm....

You go ahead and let your hero Mr Bush know that.
Liberals would pitch a fit over drug testing politicians...
...because a significant number of them wouldn't be able to pass ;->
I think the public has a right to know its representation is making decisions in a clear non chemically enhanced manner.

My hero? Hardly. What ever leads you to make that fatuous statement?
Any casual examination of my blog would turn up THIS POST stating exactly where I stand politically because its a permanent link on my sidebar that's been there for well over a year.
I'm afraid I'll have to accuse you of making unfounded conclusions and general BDS afflicted moonbattery.
Here's my challenge to you Pamela.
Why don't you take some political orientation quiz (pick any, there are many, or just use the one linked on my blog) and let us all know where you stand.
You'll notice I'm closer to democrat than republican. Abusing me does nothing but LOSE you support (because I'm a vindictive bastard who takes that kind of stuff personally and translates it into anger in the voting booth)
