What the heck happened to Bill Frist? Did someone spike his coffee with the liberal Koolaid? I must say - I am disappointed.

In the end, Republicans always cave. That’s why they’re not in power.

Is kind of disappointing, but I had a poor impression of Frist when he took over as Senate majority leader. Ted Kennedy was dancing parliamentary circles around him and it seemed like he could not get a handle on things.

The problem is that he - as are all Washington denizens - is a politician, and, as such, can’t even consider the proposition that Government may not have a valid role in many - if not most - situations...

He’s a screwdriver who thinks he’s got to be a hammer.

Hello, DOCTOR Frist? Why do most of your colleagues believe they will bail out of an Obamacare?

Frist has always been for this, forcing everyone to buy health insurance. As I long as I can remember.

“That’s what leadership is all about.”

Exhibit A why the Repubs lost their way.

Congress has made it perfectly clear that even the opposition was 100% against this crime, they don’t give a damn what we think, they’re determined to shove it down our throats,,while exempting themselves. This is tyranny!!!

Watch how this goes viral and is used as cover on all the Sunday shows.

“How radical can it be if the former (R) Senate leader, a doctor no less, woud vote for it.”

“Shows how far right the republicans have moved.”

Etc.

There is one question that never gets answered; how are you going to pay for it? That doesn’t seem to stop them from keep saying we need more and more.

Our “leadership” has bankrupt this nation and still they want to spend more.

What the heck happened to Bill Frist?

Nothing. He was my Senator and he was a disappointment in the Senate from day one. As with most Republicans Frist was far too willing to compromise on fundamental conservative issues. Frist is yet another glaring example of a so-called Republican that goes along to get along....

If John Warner (”R”-VA) were still there, there is no doubt in my mind he would be supporting this.
