'As Compared to What?'

is the title of a forthcoming documentary about Barney Frank, who has a lot more intelligence/common sense than the average congressman. Barney is the subject of a new film, and says he got the line from Henny Youngman, who used it when asked, 'How's Your Wife?' It applies to a BUNCH of issues that the Con/Pubs just can't understand, like 'don't bother the patriot cattleman, legalization of pot, no gay marriage, not negotiating with Russia and deportation of illegal immigrants among others. Sure, it's not always an ideal situation, but some issues are kinda gray, and they live in a black and white world. You have to balance the issues and compromise (the NASTY word they can't tolerate) cuz you can't just turn back the clock and live in a 'Father Knows Best'/ 'Leave It To Beaver' world that was ruined by 'those damn hippies'.
