The benefits of power
A little item that never made the news until now:
From
FOX News:
Barney Frank Present When Partner Arrested for Pot
Rep. Barney Frank admitted Friday that he was sitting on the porch of his partner�s Maine home when police came to arrest his partner for marijuana possession.
Frank, responding to new reports that he was present during the Aug. 2007 arrest of James Ready, said in a statement he was unaware Ready had marijuana plants.
According to a police report obtained by MyFoxBoston, Maine police arrested and charged James Ready with marijuana possession, cultivation and use of drug paraphernalia. He pleaded guilty to civil possession and paid a fine. The remaining charges were dismissed last year.
Frank was not charged.
WTF did he think the plants were? If this had been a Republican, the news would have been all over the place.
