Barney Frank present during marijuana bust:

BOSTON (FOX25, myfoxboston) - FOX25 has learned that Congressman Barney Frank was present during a marijuana arrest at James Ready's home in Ogunquit, Maine. Ready is well-known for his relationship with Congressman Frank.

According to a police report, police charged Ready with marijuana possession, cultivation and use of drug paraphernalia in August of 2007. Ready admitted to civil possession and paid a fine. The remaining charges were dismissed in 2008.

Sources tell FOX25 that when Frank was questioned he told police that he did not live in the house and that he only smoked cigars.

Congressman Frank tells FOX25 that he was surprised and disappointed with what police found. He also tells us that he wouldn't recognize a marijuana plant if he saw one because he is, "not a great outdoorsman," and ,"wouldn't recognize most plants."

I guess if you have to be with Bawney Frank, sedation is the way to go. No wonder he's pushing for the medical marijuana bill...

    George -

    The audio of him telling the story of this to a FOX reporter is priceless. Looked for a direct link but you'll just have to grab the embed from mine if you want it:

    Yeah. Right. And he knew nothing of Steve Gobie, who ran a male whorehouse outa Frank's DC home during the 80s, nor did he know that Gobi was reportedly a convicted felon.

    By his own admission, Frank claims his father was a gangster who ran his actitivities under the guise of a NJ Truckstop and his mother - drumroll, please - was an 'activist' who 'wrote' for commie pinksheets having a circulation, no doubt of twenty two.

  • I believe those "cigars" are actually called "blunts."
