Barney Frank Blasts Libyan Diplomat's Anti-Gay Remarks



Massachusetts Representative Barney Frank on Wednesday blasted a Libyan diplomat's anti-gay remarks.

Frank, the nation's most powerful openly gay elected official, called United Nations President Ali Abdussalam Treki's anti-gay remarks “bigoted.”

“This is par for the course for a Libyan official – offensive, stupid and bigoted,” Frank told On Top Magazine in an email.

In a press conference to open the 64th session of the United Nations General Assembly, Treki said a UN resolution that calls for the universal decriminalization of being gay was “not acceptable.”

Where are the other members of Congress? Seriously. This is a no-brainer to criticize, but they don't even have enough spine to do that.
