The fact that Barney is gay has absolutely nothing to do with my disappointment
in his choice to support Hillary over Bernie. NOTHING.

It has EVERYTHING to do with Barney now working for the industry he supposedly
"reigned in" with Dodd/Frank, and then failing to support the ONE candidate in this
primary race who wants to re-instate Glass/Steagal.

Barney's gayness does not render him somehow immune to any & all criticism of
his poor choice to support Hillary over Bernie in the Primary.
