I've heard these allegations that Congressional representative Barney Frank raped young boys , these allegations in response to Mark Foley and I am wondering if there is truth to this because I have heard none and I think if that were true we would know about it already

Barney Frank has never been linked to statutory rape or sex with underage boys. In the late 1980s, while still closeted, a former lover was found to have blackmailed him and operated a gay sex ring out of Frank's home. This became public (as did Frank's sexuality), and he was officially reprimanded.

Frank has been directly involved in a sex scandal, but not with under aged boys, at least nothing that has been made public. Barney Frank allowed a "friend" of his to operate a gay prostitution ring from within his apartment (which was, btw, illegal). Frank also put that same "friend" on the government payroll for a couple of years as his personal assistant and driver. When it was diclosed, Frank was merely reprimanded.

Barney Frank's conduct was deplorable, just as Foley's was. Neither of them should be serving in Congress.

Barney Franks ran a prostitution ring out of his apartment . He has refused to resign . Because he is a democrat -that sort of thing is rewarded . He was later voted the most intelligent Democrat member of the House of Representatives . Countless democrat sex offenders are made into heroes ; and if they are dumb enough to get convicted -old Bill Clinton will pardon them -like he did Democrat Congressman Mel Reynolds , convicted of 16 counts of sexual assault-YET HE WAS PARDONED ON CLINTON'S LAST DAY IN OFFICE -OH , BY THE WAY , THE SEXUAL ASSAULTS WERE WITH A CHILD !

Franks is gay and has been out of the closet for years. He's also been reelected several time with his constituents knowing he was gay. Any accusations against him are a sign of desperation on the part of republicans. They are trying to shift the focus away from Foley.

Barney Frank, who referred to himself as a left-handed, gay Jew, was repremanded by Congress because he befriended a gay prostitute and allowed this gay prosttute to operate a gay prostitution ring from Barney Frank's home. He was never accused of rape, just really poor judgement.

No truth to it at all. Just gay bashing. The product of small, weak homophobic minds.
