La Raza Award Winner Barney Frank Says “Lazy People Don’t Immigrate”

(The Hill) — Two of Rep. Barney Frank’s (D-Mass.) best-loved qualities were on display Tuesday night at the National Building Museum: his razor-sharp wit, and his occasionally less-than-diplomatic delivery.

Accepting an award from the National Council of La Raza at a black-tie dinner, Frank told the Latino group, “There’s a problem in this country with bilingualism. And the problem is that not enough of us are [bilingual].”

The fast-talking Frank speaks only English, though his own brand of English.

Frank recalled a former South Korean ambassador who visited him in his office. “On his way out, he said to my foreign policy assistant, ‘The congressman is very interesting, what’s his native language?’

“We haven’t figured that out yet.”

Frank also took a witty jab at certain anti-immigration arguments. “Lazy people don’t immigrate. I mean, who gets up and goes to a foreign country where they don’t speak the language and they don’t have any contacts?

“The lazy people stayed home!” he exclaimed. “I don’t mean to be critical of them, but since they stayed home.”

    Word on the street is that the two best-loved qualities of Barney Frank are his butt and his mouth.

    When the Republicans take control in 2012 it is my dearest hope that Barney Frank, Maxine Waters, Harry Reid, Franklin Raines, Maxine Waters et al; all end up with a Federal funded retirement plan that I would gladly pay to support, there new digs would be in Leavenworth.

    He’s right, you know. Smart, dedicated people immigrate. Illegal aliens invade. Let’s refuse to use the PC terms. Immigrants are legal and welcome. Invaders need to be thrown out.

    99% of the Democrat Party gives the rest of them a bad name.

    Barney has only two qualities:
    1. Hatred
    2. Stupidity

    He gives gay people a bad name.

    The bilingualism issue always ticks me off. If you live in certain parts of the country, such as Texas, where I grew up and live now, Spanish is forced down your throat constantly. You’d have to be extremely ignorant or stubborn not to pick up a little Spanish here or there. By that same token, I find it incredible that Spanish-speaking immigrants live here for YEARS and do not bother to learn English. There are parts of Mexico–the tourism states–where many Mexicans are bilingual, because their economy depends upon being able to entertain and communicate with tourists. But I would never move to Mexico (laying aside the fact that I wouldn’t be allowed to move there as an American citizen and take a job away from a Mexican) and expect everyone to bend over backward and accommodate me by providing everything in English because I couldn’t be arsed to learn the language.
