Representative Barney Frank held a town hall meeting in Dartmouth, Massachusetts, on August 19, 2009, to discuss the proposed health care reform.1
One woman asked Frank how he could support a "Nazi" policy, to which he replied by asking the woman on which planet she spends most of her time. He went on by calling her question "vile, contemptible nonsense" and comparing having a conversation with her to "arguing with a dining room table."1
