Just heard Major Garrett on Fox say the Frist will not let this bill come to the Senate floor...

I predict Frist will substitute the Committee Bill for his. The Judiciary Committee considered and duly passed a bill. I think it sets up a very awkward precedent if the majority leader substitutes his personal will for the will of the appropriate committee.

Otherwise, Frist is tending toward outcome-based action, instead of rule-based action. What other actions of Committees will he overrride?

That's true...I didn't think of that!........I guess we'll have to see if Frist has the cajones to stand firm...

Frist's "bill" won't get anywhere, or will be filibustered by Harry Reid.

Which means Frist will have to bring up the committee bill. He will be thoroughly embarrassed.

Doubt it. Frist's bill will be filibustered by Reid and his gang of soft on crime goobers on the left.
