Anybody bother to watch the video? He threatened to out them as HOMOSEXUAL, not as pedophiles. As much as I wish this were true, this is incredibly misleading. I am surprised there are so many commenters who failed to realize this.
Actually, he admits to threaten to out other politicians as gay for accusing Tom Foley of pedophilia just for being gay. Back then, there was a lot of assumption that homosexuals were the biggest perpetrators of pedophilia. "I don't want to name them. But from time to time I want to threaten to. I've used the threat twice. In 1989, when Tom Foley was about to become Speaker, several Republicans spread the rumor that he was not only gay but that he had sex with underage children. So I made a public statement: "Republicans are trying to use an accusation of being gay as if it were a bad thing. If they continue to do this, I'm going to out some people." And they backed off. I did it again last year, when President Clinton issued an executive order abolishing anti-gay "security clearance" rules. And Bob Dornan and others said something like: "The President made a mistake. These people, particularly when they are in the closet, are a security risk because they can be blackmailed." So I said: "I do not believe that gay people, in or out of the closet, are a security risk. But if the Republican Party gets through Congress a law that says that closeted gay people are a security risk, I will send a list to the Ethics Committee of all the closeted gay Republicans." And they did back off. Bob Dornan accused me of being a bully."
And if you believe he's that innocent and take him at his word, despite the fact his underage prostitution ring was also run out of a nearby school, I've got ocean front property in Arizona to sell ya.
I'm already in AZ. ;) lol I don't believe anything until provided with proof or strong evidence. So far, I have not seen a single instance of what the OP claims to be true. I want this to take down the elite just as much as anyone, but it isn't going to help our cause to take meanings out of things that aren't there. I have not heard of a pedo ring "run out of a nearby school", but if you have some info, I'd certainly check it out. As it stands, the title of the OP is blatantly false and has not been backed up with any evidence.
Ha.. you need to do a little more digging. Barney Frank is guilty as fuck and has been for over 30 years.
Funny how you demand 'strong evidence' ( which if plentiful if you get off your ass and look for it ) from this investigation, while letting the MSM, the Police, the FBI, the CIA and our Politicians lie to our faces on a daily basis.
You're a flake who demands to be an arbiter with no apparent credibility.
Wow, you sure did get a lot out of very few words. It's that type of thinking that makes this investigation look like bullshit to many. If he's guilty as fuck, then there would be more than just what this thread has provided, which is very little. I've been researching all this since before the emails, btw, so this is the first I've really heard anything implicating Frank in any of this. Also, I do not "let" the "MSM police, etc lie to us on a daily basis" any more than you do. Seems like some of you fall apart when asked to back up your claims. Basic logic states that if you make a claim it is up to you to provide a source. Not me, or the reader.
Yeah... I've been on this pedo ring since 1989 when it broke while I was in college. Frank is intimately tied to the Franklin Scandal and was the key Democrat who diverted the story into a 'gay witch hunt' in DC. Look into it before you comment further.

Fair enough. That's the most anyone has really given me to go on so far. So thank you for that.
