Barney Frank kicks Neil Cavuto's ass
:)

Cavuto Battles Frank: ‘Congressman, Is It Always Incumbent Upon You To Be So Condescending?’

Fox News anchor Neil Cavuto had a fiery exchange with House Financial Services Chairman Barney Frank (D-MA) this week. Early on in the interview, Frank criticized Cavuto for repeatedly cutting him off. “If you’re going to interrupt every five words, we don’t have a show.”

Frank also took exception to Cavuto’s suggestion that Frank was in favor of arbitrary caps on CEO pay. “I’ve never said that. I can’t deal with all of your distortions here,” Frank said. Cavuto hit back: “Congressman, is it always incumbent upon you to be so condescending or do you just want to answer my question?”

7. He is the best at the smackdown
He never lets the idiots lead him. He also has more facts than the idiots.
Wesley Clark is good at it too.
Could they conduct some seminars for the other Democrats?

9. Neil acts like he's staying awake nights worrying about the poor CEOs
I mean, God, he kept coming back to their pay possibly being capped like it was the most horrifying specter he could imagine. The stupidity and avarice of these people is mind-blowing.
