Last night, Rep. Tom DeLay (R-TX) appeared on Hardball with Chris Matthews. Matthews asked DeLay who, if any, Democrat he admires or believes has a moral compass. Astonishingly enough, his answer was…

Barney Frank (D-MA)

“He’s a strong, moral Democrat. I respect him greatly. He’s a true liberal and he’s unashamedly a liberal.”

DeLay went on to say that he doesn’t believe in homosexuality, but he likes Frank (who is openly gay) all the same. Wow Tom, you are a really sensitive guy. We never even knew.
