What is with Mass Congressperson Barney Frank causing a ruckus on the Fire Island Ferry down heah in the New Yawk metro area. I really think you can do a summer humor piece on this one, he was bent out of shape because he didn’t get the 1 dollah senya discount. Like this guy knows how to watch a buck, billions to the Investment Bankers disappear and he worries about a buck senya discount.
Pack.

Now, while I know that the Packy is an unimpeachable source, I just had a hearty laugh and decided to check it out before posting. But since it’s on Fox25, I guess the story is out there…

More after the jump

Come with me to the Fire Island Ferry…

Frank – I get the discount, too.

Clerk – I’m sorry, sir, but you need a valid photo ID for that.

Frank – But I’m famous! Google Me! You’ll see I’m old enough!

Clerk – I’m sorry, Congressman, but the government ferry terminal has a porn blocker, so I can’t access you on Google…

Frank – I AM A QUALIFIED SUFFICK COUNTY RESIDENT!

Clerk – We DO have a discount, but it’s for SUFFOLK in JOISEY, not some SUFFICK…

Frank – I DEMAND my dollah! I’m ENTITLED! My friend – SENATAH – John Kerry will take me on his boat next time, and then…

Clerk (now wishing she hadn’t filled out that damn summer job application) – I am SORRY, sir, but I cannot MAKE exceptions…there are people behind you, sir, and the ferry is getting ready to leave…sir, I am going to HAVE to ask you…

Which would make him a Middlesex County resident.

  You forget that all the Republicans in MA are just Texans who came up here to vote for Scott Brown. So don't expect them to actually know anything about Massachusetts.
