He isn't going to pursue a conservative agenda.

You're right. Nothing in these programs is authorized by the consatitution--shrub didn't fall too far from the bush did he?

Thank you Gail. Of course, the "perfect" conservatives don't like him.
Not to mention all the pseudo conservatives who are really here from DU.
Frist is a fine mamn, but these two groups will trash him just the same. I myself am quite proud of Dr. Frist as our new majority leader.

Ah yes, the new spin. First it was Dad Bush pulling the strings, then Cheney. Now it is Karl Rove.
Of course, Rove is arguably more conservative than the President, but that doesn't matter to any of you constant Bush-bashers. I am SO glad to see in the two months you have been here that you have gotten up to speed on all the anti-Bush lingo.
Pbbbttt!!

Look out for centrist Sen. Frist to pass a socialist health care bill of rights which will cause another major hike in the insurance premiums of all Americans forcing millions more Americans to drop their coverage. Passing another high-regulation health care bill is reportedly his top priority for the 107 Congress.

Swipe a billion tax dollars. Now I said TAX dollars, family biggest stockholders, sit on the board with total innocence, "why my goodness, do tell a billion, why we knew nothing about it"...republican apologists here remind me of Clinton lackeys of yesteryear.

Don't you love the way these articles are phrased? I tend to go back and inject their real meaning in these puff pieces.
"As a result, some Republicans(code word for liberal RINOS) think Frist could help the party (become identical to the liberals) close the historic Democratic advantage on health care issues much the way Bush's (throwing his education plan overboard and stuffing Teddie's toe in his mouth) education initiatives - such as the education reform law of 2001 - have narrowed the gap between the parties on that front. (Yeah, gotta narrow that gap until the party is fully as socialist as the Democrats and makes itself unneccessary)
See how fun that is?

I regreted voting for bush when he delt with teddy kennedy and got ride of vouchers. Of course you did. Doesn't matter that we have a real man in the White House. A man with dignity, honor, integrity. A man who lives his Christian faith and does not care who knows or likes it.
Doesn't matter that we had this great man who chose to put in place a top class support team to lead us after 9/11. A man who did not brush the attack under the rug like all others but one who decided to go after the terrorists and rout them out for future generations. Doesn't matter that we have a man that fights for the U.S. against the U.N. controllers and the enviros. Doesn't matter that we have a president that firmly believes we are taxed too much.
What matters to you is that you think he failed on the voucher issue with Ted Kennedy.
Maybe you will find another president that won't fail you on the voucher issue.

Unless he wants to kill babies to cure diseases.Unsupported useless statement -- yours!

Frist will be all for expamdimg health care, fit right in with the family business. Frist has now served several terms as senator. What is in the Frist voting record that would support your statement?
