    No idea. Possibly having consensual sex with another man from time to time. Why?

    Back in the 80's Barney hired a male prostitute to "run errands" for him. He ended up running a prostitution ring out of Barney's Washington apartment.

    And Barney still got re-elected many times over.

    O-Trap- I understand the skepticism. I have it too. My friend showed me that youtube link yesterday along with another that has an audio piece that is supposedly John Pedosta torturing a child and how it sounds just like Podesta talking at HRC's after-election announcement. I tried to explain that audio files can be manipulated fairly easily these days.

    Exactly. If it was ACTUALLY him, there would be more of a stir, because there are people with the sort of expertise who can compare audio to a much more precise degree, and they would have done so by now. At least, one would hope.

    Look, "Pizzagate" won't die on this site...unless something comes up that puts some prominent right-wing names at its heart, at which point it will become "fake news" and no longer worth discussing!

    Well Denny Hastert is in jail.

    He liked to proposition boys, in the capitol building.

    I know the story. He was investigated by the Congressional Ethics Committee, as I recall, and they found no evidence that he knew about the ring.

    By any account, all he knew was that his driver/assistant/peen-massager was living in an apartment he paid for.

    It would no longer be big, even if true.

    Fairly common knowledge back in the '80's, in addition to the make prostitute ring being run out of his DC apartment.

    Lets just say there were some congressmen anxious to have this matter swept under the rug.

    Wrong.

    Pizzagate is NOT about party line. It's about exposing all of them.

    So, he was soliciting minors because a lot of people thought so?

    Moreover, I've yet to see anything about Frank himself running anything.

    Keep digging. Maybe you'll find something that hasn't been public knowledge since I was in pre-school.

    Oh? Not that it would surprise anyone, but do you have names and sources for this?
    Stated nothing about Frank soliciting children or knowing about the ring.

    I agree... no party line on this one, if its true it crosses both sides... wouldn't be surprised if there are SCOTUS involved either.

    It wasn't at a pizza joint, no just the Republican Caucus of the House.
    That was the danger site for young boys.

    No. The talk was Barney would take others with him by exposing them as gay. It's not good for reelection efforts if you are a conservative Republican and you've gotten a massage at Barney's Brothel.

    After the Gerry Studds scandal in the early 80's where he had sex with congressional pages who were minors and was only censured and surprisingly went on to reelection, likely caused these theories to win credence.

    Obvious troll is obvious.

    That seems like a fair assessment. Taking the Studds incident into account, you could say there was precedence for there to have been more going on, but without proof, it still seems presumptuous to assume it as true.
