What lead to Barney Frank's insult on the House floor today was criticism from Rep. John Culberson (R-TX) about the limited time Democrat's allowed Congress to read the 1000-plus page stimulus bill. Culberson said this permitted the AIG bonuses.

Frank fired back saying Democrats were trying to fix the original stimulus bill with the five-page bill currently up on the floor. Frank finally stated that the GOP criticisms came from "a psychological disorder I am not equipped to diagnose."
