I can't quite figure out what the author is talking about; just HOW is it that Dr. Frist is responsible for what his brother did? So he's a stockholder, his holdings were in a blind trust when the alleged problem occurred and he had nothing to do with running the compnay. Where's the "scandal", other than scandalmongering on the fringes?

HCA stole over $700 million in tax dollars from medicare. That is not investor money, that is tax dollars. His family sits on the board, yet they knew nothing, not a thing. Frist family before they were caught, were worth over a billion dollars just thru HCA. Dems will pin the moniker "Honest Frist" on him then watch Bush jump to his defense.

Frist is a GOPer. And if the Dems talk loud enough, the words "medical care", and "scandal" in the same sentences should doom him. Esp. if they can find a minority patient who died after being covered by HCA.
It's a simple formula.

Frist is going to challenge HillaryCare.

She will go after him with everything she's got.

She saw how quickly the GOP folded with Lott. Let's see how this one goes.

I am becoming sick of this attempt to tar Senator Frist. I'll wager that there are not 1 in 1000 politicians that can match him for integrity and service to humanity.

We are seeing real McCarthyism reincarnated. And it seems that it's not just the degenerate DemocRATs but some Republicans.

May they roast in Hell.

Guilt by association. They share the same surname and probably eat Thanksgiving dinner together. That's more than enough for a good conspiracy.

It doesn't matter who the pubs put up. They could put daschle up in a whispering voice, and the dems would tear him to pieces like the pirahnas they are before they knew what they did.

Suck it up and get used to it...this is just the begining.

I'll take it one step further. Expect someone to come forward to say that they were harmed from medical malpractice by Dr. Frist or some such nonsense. Count on it.

Good on ya, jackbill. Bill Frist, wealthy cardiologist, doesn't do volunteer medicine in Africa for publicity sake, he cares about human beings. Don't forget that dissonance and disinformation, obfuscation and out right lies are hallmarks of democrat methodology. Much of the garbage sepwing forth in the media is from leechatarians or democrat sycophants. The media also loves to keep things stirred up, to feed their insatiable 24/7 news system.

Oh, yes! He's been going to Africa to treat the poor there. I'm sure the Dems can find some cute little African kid who didn't have the best outcome.

The same way Trent Lott was responsible for Strom Thurmond's 1948 Presidential bid.

Well this is interesting. I wonder if they send their records transcription offshore to Pakistan or India. If so, that would not be good.
