According to
Vote-smart.org, he voted "YES" on the PBA ban. Also, I think it was either him or Santorum that gave his floor speech on it when the child started crying out from the balcony.

Pelosi up right now on Fox... Always a good opportunity to take a break and relieve myself . . . (in the bathroom, that is, not on the TV)

Rats! I had Monday, the 23rd, in the pool.

Careful what you break off there.

Don't like his reported ties to an abortion-providing institution, and don't like that he helped David Satcher get Surgeon General. Well, his "ties to an abortion-providing institution" are that his brother and father started a medical corporation that now owns hospitals all across the country. Bill Frist has never worked for HCA, and has never been on the board of HCA. Instead, he started his own transplant clinic at Vanderbilt University. He did inherit some HCA stock from his father.
Now, does HCA perform abortions? I don't know, but abortions performed at hospitals are usually because the life of the mother is at risk. Elective abortions are almost never performed in a hospital, just because of the cost. Another question would be, does the hospital at Vanderbilt University perform abortions? If it does, does that mean Frist is tainted because his transplant clinic is associated with the college? This kind of guilt by association can get pretty ridiculous.

Thank you for that info!
To: Joe Hadenuf
Are the voices in your head screaming at you again?
: )
To: ThinkingMan
People are obviously looking at the "hit-piece" article that came out today about his stock holdings in a private hospital. Terry Jeffrey's title in that article was misleading. He said Frist owned stock in a for-profit abortion center. Actually, he owns stock in a hospital sttarted by members of his own family.
That they perform abortions is incidental.

, when the other side is going to overreach, you just sit back on defense and slam `em hard.Or sometimes, you just step aside and let 'em charge off the cliff, then shout "Happy landings!" after them :o)

When I see post that insults people often you name is attached. Does it make you feel good to be meanspirited?
To: NY Catholic
Why all the talk? Because RightWing2 is an idiot, who can't read facts... can't write them, either, apparently...
Take everything he says witha grain of salt - it'll make you rlife a lot easier if you do ;0)

"We didn't push Lott out to please the Dems."
Doesn't matter. They'll think we did, and they'll use that to whatever advantage they can - including judicial nominees.

Thanks very much.
To: SupplySider
I think the best way the GOP could act to show they've but this behind them, and to call out the Dems on the race baiting, would be to send Judge Pickering's nomination up first, and stick it in the Dems eye.....

The talk is that he and his father are majority investors in some hospitals that commit infanticide.
To: Poohbah
Politics are better described as a marathon instead of as a sprint. Worth repeating. And Lott won't quit the Senate or switch. He realizes this also or he never would have stepped aside in the first place.
