Lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the new federal health care law are not likely to succeed, a former U.S. Senate Republican leader said.

Poster boy for the need to Pink Slip RINO incumbents.

[ErnstStavroBlofeld]

We need more people out there filing more lawsuits against Obamacare

From the article:

“Members of Frist’s family in 1968 founded Hospital Corporation of America, the largest private operator of health care facilities in the nation. Frist sold all of his shares in the Nashville, Tenn.-based company in 2005.”

The Frist family is the specific beneficiary of a section of the law that provides them with near monopoly power in private hospital ownership in their existing markets, of course Frist loves this law.

Thank God this guy is gone.
Now if only he had the class and common decency to keep his stinking mouth shut.

When is Bush I and II coming out with their support? You know it is coming.

Wasn't this guy supposed to run for President - but for some reason fell off the scope after resigning from senate leadership?
So why should I care about his opinion?
What has he done lately to give me credibility?

[SaraJohnson]

We all need to call him up and tell him to shut his pie hole. Most Americans are disgusted with his death care bill.

[montanajoe]

He’s probably correct. Its very doubtful the USSC will overturn this.

[Razz Barry]

Former U.S. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., said he is pleased that the Obama administration will be able to extend health care coverage to millions of uninsured Americans, Nashville Public Radio reported Thursday.

Dumb a$$!

[Prospero]

Whether or not a lawsuit can prevail, the bill is unconstitutional. If not, it’s probably time for a Constitutional Convention.

[HiTech RedNeck]

how may this be done without creating a precedent that the fedguv may require all americans to buy one box of kellogg’s corn flakes a week?

[cashless]

Once a worthless sack of Siberian snake snot, always a worthless sack of Siberian snake snot.
RINOS are like lips on a chicken and teats on a bull...worthless.
Hey EX-Senator Frist....quit being abiguous and change your party affiliation to Progressive er, uh, Democrat.

[TCH]

After we take the trash out in November... We must make certain that none of it gets “recycled.”

Frist is another perfect example of corruption.
