Smart move on Rick's part!
Someone needs to place a baseball bat to the side of "Dr" Frist's head!
5,4,3,2,1 countdown for the Santorum haters to show up and say he is a quisling, traitor, et al.
Frist would be better if he returned to medicine rather than continuing as such an embarrassment as he tries to be a Senate leader.
Repeat after me: Federal acceptance of embryonic research will result in baby farming.
(Cue in the Ignorant Masses: "B-b-b-but that would NEVER happen!")
Rick is wrong.
If they're going to mandate the cannibalization of babies for spare parts, they should mandate that all Congress Critters have stem cells applied to where their spines ought to be in the hopes of deterring further catastrophic legislation like this energy piece of crap the President will be signing sometime next week.
Yet he campaigned for Specter.
Frist has never been comfortable with Bush's position on embryonic stem cell research. However, he really went about this the wrong way. Apparently, he sent a letter to the NY TIMES stating his new position before informing the President. That certainly doesn't win him any friends at the White House. You gotta wonder what was going through his mind.
Just as Rick lost his chance for the presidency when he campaigned for Spector over Toomey, Frist lost his chance for the presidency, with his latest move to support Federally Funded Embryonic Stem Cell Research.
later pingout.
Conservatives elected Frist. Conservatives can also unelect him. Time to check out his business connections, which may not stand up under scrutiny.
