"Former Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., responding to al-Qaeda’s criticism of his sexual orientation in the latest issue of their magazine, compared the terrorist organization to the Tea Party and cracked that the two groups are “aligned” with each other against gay marriage.

“I wonder how the right wing in America feels about being aligned with al-Qaeda?” Frank said to Buzzfeed, adding that “there is an irony that the most active anti-gay [groups] are al-Qaeda and the American right-wing.”

The latest issue of Al-Qaeda’s Inspire magazine spotlights “Barney Frank, Gay Congressman, Symbol of the American Dream” to argue that the United States is “a nation standing on no values.”

“It sounded like what the Tea party said when I got married,” Frank replied.

Frank’s comments come about a week after an NPR analyst suggested that “anti-government, 

right-wing” terrorists attacked the Boston Marathon." via Free Republic

=================================

Ed. note: About the Tea Party and the above remarks. The Tea Party beginning had nothing to do with social issues. It was a sudden realization that the GOP had thrown the country overboard, that we'd been sold out by the Bush crowd which was and remains merely a money laundering outfit. Various right of center people became attracted to the Tea Party as they had nowhere else to go. Equally important have been fake Tea Party groups (like TheTeaParty.net and Tea Party News Network) which were created to sabotage, hijack, or assimilate the real Tea Party. As a result, you never know today what a real Tea Party person thinks because the fake groups have been quite successful.

There are supposed to be two viable political parties in this country. Little enough choice as it is. Millions of people want nothing to do with either one. People don't like being stuffed like sausages into one of only two slots. Today you don't even get that. The remaining establishment GOP has joined with their true love, the democrats, so there's really only one political party.
