Another Barney relationship gone “up in smoke”

Barney, Barney, Barney …. too much. Barney’s buddy is busted for dope smoking (plus), and Barney … well … he was there … just helping a grieving friend of course. But he wasn’t smoking, nope, nosireeeeeeeeeee. Big hat tip to Hot Air “picks.”

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.

You can listen to Barney’s explanation here.

So, first we have Barney not knowing a male prostitution ring was being run from his home. Then, of course, there was no conflict of interest when he carried on a relationship with an executive at Fannie Mae, while he was a member of the House Banking Committee. And now this.

But Joe Wilson … nope, he deserves to be spanked for simply telling the truth. My goodness.
