Is Barney Frank seeking a new high with George Soros?

July 31, 2008 (LPAC)--On Wednesday Rep. Barney Frank, who chairs the House Financial Services Committee, held a press conference in Washington, D.C. to announce the introduction of a marijuana decriminalization bill (HR5483). The bill is entitled the Personal Use of Marijuana by Responsible Adults Act of 2008. Attending the press conference in support of Frank were a gaggle representatives of George Soros-linked organizations: Rob Kampia of the Marijuana Policy Project, Bill Piper of the Drug Policy Alliance Network, and Allen St. Pierre, executive director of the National organization for the Reform of Marijuana Law (NORML).

Frank, who has played a leading role in blocking Lyndon LaRouche's Homeowner and Bank Protection Act, and who instead has functioned as a frontman in Congress for the London and Wall Street mega-speculators and their insane and desperate bailout schemes, has now lent his hand to Nazi-collaborator George Soros's notorious drug promotion policies.

The Washington, D.C.-based group, the Marijuana Policy Project, receives direct funding from Soros, through the Drug Policy Foundation, which, in turn, has received more than $15 million from Soros in recent years. The Drug Policy Foundation recently merged with the Lindesmith Center, a project of Soros's Open Society Institute tax-exempt foundation. The new, unified entity, the Drug Policy Alliance, is run by Soros employee Dr. Ethan Nadelmann. Soros has poured at least $25 million into various dope legalization schemes over the past five years, and has vowed to substantially increase his bankrolling of the dope lobby efforts.

The Marijuana Policy Project was launched by a former official of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Legislation (NORML), the oldest of the drug legalization fronts now under the Soros umbrella.
