Barney Frank to step down; Gingrich on cannabis

Massachusetts lawmaker Rep. Barney Frank is expected to announce that he will not run for another term. From the Advocate:
The Democratic lawmaker, who has represented the state’s 4th congressional district for more than 30 years, will announce his retirement at a 1 p.m. EST press conference today at Newton City Hall in Newton, Mass. C-SPAN will live broadcast the afternoon news conference. Founder of the Stonewall Democrats, Rep. Frank "blazed a trail for the LGBT community in many ways — most especially for the openly gay Representatives who followed him into the halls of Congress," said Jerame Davis, the organization's new executive director.
Gingrich flip-flops on Paul/Frank cannabis legislation, too. Newt has brain damage.
