Barney Frank Present When Partner Arrested for Pot
Barney Frank Present When Partner Arrested for Pot - FOXNews.com 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.
...I bet he didn't inhale either

Yet he commands the respect of thousands...
However, because Barney Frank's partner did pot, he's suddenly unfit to serve?

Besides doing it in his presence? No, there are plenty of other reasons that demonstrate his unfitness.
