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." ( Listen to Congressman Frank's full audio to the left.)
Interesting... I know someone who once got arrested because they were in a vehicle with someone who had pot on them (in his pocket). Ended up getting released from jail soon after arriving, with no charges pressed. Still, by does this homo-traitor get a free pass?
Flashback

Although Frank and Gobie differ in some details of their relationship, they agree on the story line. They met on April Fool’s Day 1985. The representative answered a classified ad in the Washington Blade, the local gay weekly. “Exceptionally good-looking, personable, muscular athlete is available. Hot bottom plus large endowment equals a good time.”
Then in his third term, the 45-year-old representative had not yet stated his homosexuality publicly. He paid Gobie $80 in cash for sex.
Gobie, then 28, was one of many young men “freelancing” in male prostitution. Gobie said he was born in Boston and grew up in a military family. He has felony convictions for possession of cocaine, oral sodomy and production of obscene items involving a juvenile.
Gobie and Frank say they became more friends than sexual partners. Gobie says he attended a bill-signing at the White House, and helped coach and played left field for Frank’s team in the Congressional Softball League. “I was the star player,” Gobie said.
Frank began to help Gobie financially, paying his attorney and court-ordered psychiatrist. The House member also said he hired Gobie as a personal aide, housekeeper and driver, but Gobie said that was a “cover story” concocted for probation officers.
In late 1985, Gobie says, he began to use Frank’s apartment and two other locations for prostitution. Frank knew about the prostitution all along, but it was never explicitly discussed, Gobie says.
“He knew exactly what I was doing,” Gobie said. “It was pretty obvious. If he had to come home early {from work}, he would call home to be sure the coast was clear . . . . He was living vicariously through me. He said it was kind of a thrill, and if he had been 20 years younger he might be doing the same thing.”
Frank denies that he knew, saying he learned from his landlord and kicked Gobie out in August 1987. Gobie supports this part of Frank’s story.
Gobie said his disclosures are only beginning. “I think I’ll just slap a book together. Sydney Biddle Barrows made in excess of a million. I thought ‘Capitol Offenses’ would be a nice title.”
I know something else he smokes...
Naaah. Too easy.
“Frank... told police that he only smoked cigars.”
No comment.

He’s a Democrat elite.
Compare Charlie Rangel and Joe Wilson. Which one was denounced by the House?
“Smoking cigars” must be code for some other activity, illegal in some states.
Ah, the perks of being a courtier to America's royalty!
“Congressman Frank tells FOX25 that he was surprised and disappointed with what police found”
Paleeeeeeez ... he knew about it all along. He should have been arrested with his ‘partner’. I would best that if they performed a blood test he would have been positive for cannibis, among other things.
No Sh!t!
>> Takeaway: Barney Frank is “not a great outdoorsman” who “wouldn’t recognize most plants” like marijuana which his boyfriend cultivates in his house...
He knows all the members of the Fruit family by sight, however.
And by feel.
The police must have nothing better to do.
Bawney also said, “Hey, the voters once again have given me a mandate”.
...and the voters will send him/her/it back to Washington again!THAT’S how bad Massachusetts is!
DING! DING!
I’m not going to speculate butt you may be ONTO something there!
Drugs, prostitution ring, criminal activity - he is a Democrat.
Very prudent of you...
i like your comment- if Barney can’t tell what pot looks like as a leaf or plant i’m wondering if he knows what it looks like in the plastic bag that it’s put in when it’s dried?
Wow,this is great story- fWanker slimed and sleaze-balled himself out of this one didn’t he?
