Today's American Banker has this nice little quote from Barney Frank about bankers:

"Here's the problem: People really hate you, and they are starting to hate us just for hanging out with you."

Do you think he's right or has he been hanging out too much with Chuck Schumer?

Barney Frank should watch the jokes about "hanging out" with undesirables.

Didn't Blustering Barney's partner once work for Fannie Mae?

Actually, I think Barney's partner actually went by the name of "Fannie Mae" in Miami for a while....
