Thank you for posting this. The author is one of the few uncorrupted people in Washington DC, and has maximum credibility.

This is new information to me...I have known something was amiss with Frist for some time, having witnessed firsthand his anti-conservative tenure as head of the NRSCC...but the fact that he and his family are directly profitting from the abortion trade explains alot.

Everybody needs to pray for a way to derail this Frist coronation and that we can get a real conservative like Nickles into the ML spot. But I am afraid that it is too late.

God help us all.

I'm surprised at Human Events. That headline suggests that Frist is a major shareholder in an abortion clinic, when it's a hospital chain.

My guess would be that abortions are probably performed from time to time in all, or at least most, hospitals in this country.

[P-Marlowe]

That explains a lot.

And what kind of evil person are you? :-)

So Frist supported Satcher.

If he hadn't, he'd be accused of being a racist.

GOOD GAWD where does all this one-issue political hysteria end? Doesn't anyone remember that there was a 9/11 and there are other life-and-death issues at stake? Is this the time to be picking apart every GOP Senator, handing bullets to the DemoScum so they can keep shooting us?

I value human life more than any of you santimonious armchair "Christians" do.

By supporting a pro-abortionist? No way.

And Frist has shown he's worth getting behind.

Especially as in standing behind him in line at a bank when he cashes his family's check for murdering babies.

Right.

All it would take is simple majority of the Congress.

Its a STATE issue. The Supreme Court had no constitutional authority to even hear the Roe v. Wade decision in the first place. Did that stop them?

If they won't accept a constitutional prohibition against exercising their Jurisdiction, do you think they will accept an act of Congress? Heck no. They'll just declare the act of congress to be unconstitutiuonal.

Congress can't change the situation. We need to appoint judges who adhere to the original intent of the drafters of the Constitution. This is not going to happen any time soon, no matter who we elect as ML.

According to the researchers, the decline of the U.S. crime rate may be the result of two mechanisms related to legalized abortion. First, following the Roe vs. Wade decision in 1973, more women at risk of having children who could later engage in criminal activity––teen-agers, those living in poverty or those with unwanted pregnancies, for example––opted for abortion. And second, improved maternal, familial or fetal circumstances may have led to better environments for raising children.

I think there's less crimminals because they killed off a whole section of society.
If I killed all of NY, their crime rate would go down, too. Nobody would be left to do anything wrong!!
(PS - I'll never back Frist until he "repents". He's has to speak out against abortion before I'd support this guy. All we need is a baby killing liberal running the show!)

Should Republicans in the Senate be led by a man who profits from abortions? I think that's something conservatives should seriously consider.

Do you have any mutual funds? (rhetorical question)

Excellent post.

Mothers are just incubators to these people.

Didn't Patricia Ireland(?) say the same thing a couple of years ago about the pro-life movement?

You keep good company.

[eastsider]

Even Catholic moral teaching allows for entopic pregnancies to be terminated.

My reputation was ruined.

Not to God, or me.

ross did his part, but many of the christian righteous stayed home because they were pissed at bush.

No, that's not true. They came out in droves to vote against Gore, but not to vote for Bush. They voted.

Should anti-abortion posters on FreeRepublic be treated by hospitals that perform abortions? Have you ever been treated by a hospital that performs abortions?

I think that is something you should seriously consider.

BTW, don't all hospitals perform abortions? If the answer to that question is yes, then what would we do without investors who invest in hospitals that perform abortions?

[A2J]

I'm amused at all of you who took Lott's gaffe as a means to kill him and at the same time prostrate yourselves at the altar of political correctness but now you run circles to defend any hint of an issue with your boy Frist.

It's all about the politics in the end isn't it? Your talk of principle and falling on swords is only so much smokescreen.

Good post.

The problem that the RINOs have is when the smoke clears, they look no different than their cousins, the Democrats.

He'd have a lot more credibility with me if his article hadn't contained so much "reported" and "reputed" stuff.

The title of this article is deceptive.

I am not about to dump my stocks.

Yet, you have no problem dumping babies down the disposal.

Sick.

Yes!!! Frist is another Lott. I don't like it one bit, never did. I vote Nickles!!!!
