Hope this hasn't already been posted. I am asking everyone who has faith to pray about this.

Frist once told National Public Radio that there are no absolute right, absolute wrong answers in medicine. During last year's stem-cell debate, Frist proposed using leftover embryos from in vitro fertilization clinics for scientific research. The Weekly Standard also noted that Frist believes there is a moral imperative to use one unsalvageable life to save another.

I'm not so certain about the 'moral imperative' but otherwise I have no objection with all this.

Actually, it has been posted

Plus, remember that Satcher is from Tennessee and the custom is for nominees from a Senator's home state to vote for them.

Frist championed the nomination by President Clinton of former Surgeon General David Satcher

Doesn't bother me.

[Wright is right!]

"Plus, remember that Satcher is from Tennessee and the custom is for nominees from a Senator's home state to vote for them."

It is not only "customary," it's practically MANDATORY. It's political suicide NOT to champion a nominee from one's own state.

Man, the din from the single-issue Freepers is deafening on this bogus issue.

Surgeon General David Satcher, a fervent supporter of unrestricted abortion and someone who actually performed abortions.

Does bother me.

Frist will be a big improvement over Lott.

Man, the din from the single-issue Freepers is deafening on this bogus issue.

I said the same thing about those who were railroading Lott.

Lott was the issue, and he had to go, no matter what, right?

There's been more resentment created in some sectors of the GOP by abandoning Lott than you realize. You should hear the calls on C-SPAN right now. Almost all of them on the Republican line think Lott was treated very unfairly.

That's not representative of anything, certainly, but some Republicans have been alienated, and they're going to give the anal probe to everybody.

Frist's a good guy, but, as a politician, he's as opportunistic as anybody else.

To those who are pro-life and ARE single issue voters (I'm not), their concerns have to be addressed.

LOL, I tried to warn as many as I could that removing Lott would cause much more problems than it could possibly have solved. Now, the race-hatred industry is emboldened, and if reports about Frist are true, conservatives have gained nothing. Congrats to the intolerant, who cast their "Lott" with the hypocritical ultraleft, to help castigate Trent; you shot your foot yet again! Can you say Don Quixote???

[Cable225]

Oh boy, here's a shock. Who would think WorldNetDaily and Joe Farah would have something uncomplimentary to say about a Republican?

Anybody remember the last time Joe Farah had anything positive to say about anything that didn't involve Pat Buchanan? I'll bet Joe had this article ready to go with ANY name he needed to plug into it.

It is not only "customary," it's practically MANDATORY Exactly. If he had not, think about the stink that would have been made about it, particularly since Satcher is black. Damned if you do...

[LWalk18]

Over the last few days I have seen lots of spectulation and rumors that Frist is pro-abortion, but no proof. Let's see some genuine facts before this man is attacked.

[Wright is right!]

"Over the last few days I have seen lots of spectulation and rumors that Frist is pro-abortion, but no proof."

That's because there is none. Frist has voted consistently pro-life. Dr. Frist is the heart-and-lung transplant surgeon and son of the founder of Columbia HCA, Dr. Thomas Frist. ColumbiaHCA is a large health organization that owns a lot of large, top-notch hospitals.

If you think that those callers to C-SPAM's Republican Line are actually Republicans, then I have some El Primo Arizona Seaside property you may be interested in. The GOP Line at C-SPAM is populated almost entirely by DNC Seminar Callers.

And this may well come back and bite the GOP when it counts the most.

Now, the race-hatred industry is emboldened

No thanks to the president and his race-minded sidekick Rove.

[Delphinium]

I agree, I want to know the facts?
