...he supports fetal stem cell research.

Your statement is unobjective in it's incompletness -- please try again.

I'll be back after breakfast to see how you made out.

Thanks

My charges???? Goodness, those were Federal charges that have been ongoing for five long years, Federal Charges, not mine. They pleaded guilty, guilty, guilty to 69 counts of fraud of a billion dollars. My God man, those are Federal crimes and our tax dollars.

Bad enough when Enron swindles billions from investors, but swindling a billion in tax dollars is a bit much. All of this was ongoing for five long years and all of a sudden last Wednesday it is settled. See any coincidence there????

Rightwing2. There you go again! Apparently, you can't explain Frist's high NTU rating so your response is to ignore it.

[Austin Willard Wright]

It seems that he can't provide evidence. Frist is no anti-big government messiah but his rating from the authoritative National Taxpayers Union (which is calculates every anti-spending vote) is 84, better than both Lott or Santorum. Now....Frist may become a raving socialist in the next few months but his past record is pretty good when compared to many conservatives such as Santorum.

"Unless he wants to kill babies to cure diseases"

Would that be before or after he offers prayers to Satan at a black mass, with the President holding the blood-goblet?

Seek help.

republican apologists here remind me of Clinton lackeys of yesteryear.

Now you're talking!

[RJCogburn]

he supports fetal stem cell research.

Good.

[Long Cut]

"he supports fetal stem cell research. "

This is a far cry indeed from "killing babies".

In fact, it is imbecilic rhetoric, as the fetal cells in question would never develop into humans anyway. You zealots really should quit operating from emotion so much. Makes you look like Democrats.

"he supports fetal stem cell research."

Good.

Incomplete -- not objective -- bad!

Yes, our anti-big government messiahs crashed and burned back in 95. A politician would be crazy to be such, today.

"I regreted voting for bush when he delt with teddy kennedy and got ride of vouchers."

This is classic. Leaving aside the spelling and grammatical errors here, which pretty much establish the writer as unworthy of any credibility, let's examine the so-called "substance", shall we?

The President did not "get ride" of vouchers. They simply were not included as an option in the bill he signed. They were NOT made illegal or banned, as you imply. In fact, they were removed by the Swimmer himself, as there was NO WAY his drunken ass would ever support them.

Why don't you obtain an education, beginning with spelling and grammar, before attempting to form an opinion? It'll be more persuasive that way.

Or, failing that (as I would expect), you could just go back to DU.

What the hell are you talking about? The GOP caved in 1995 and paid for this with loses in 1996 and 1998. Had it stuck to its guns, that budget battle could have been easily won. The case of 1995 is a perfect example of what happens when you cave. What you are recommending? That the GOP continue to embrace socialism in baby steps rather than giant leaps. Thanks but no thanks. Such a strategy only leads to the same statist goal. Life is too important to take part in such scams.

"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. "

Do all paranoid demagogues use run-on sentences and poor language skills?

Do they all also believe that their fears and innuendos constitute fact, absent any evidence?

Give it a rest, Dave.

Rooster....

I am an unabashed Conservative American...These party ideologues, whether republican or democrat, by becoming party and personal apologists, are all brothers under the skin. At this juncture of American history, they do this nation a disservice.

In another year the pubs will be around here whining for conservative votes to hold off the barbarian democrats. The sky will fall if we do not vote republican, and on and on. Same litany every election cycle. Until then, we are attacked on a personal basis over and over by the same people.

Swipe a billion tax dollars. Now I said TAX dollars, family biggest stockholders, sit on the board with total innocence,

Partial innocense -- what? Why don't you just come out and say Frist is guilty or innocent of your charges?

My charges???? Goodness, those were Federal charges that have been ongoing for five long years, Federal Charges, not mine. They pleaded guilty, guilty, guilty to 69 counts of fraud of a billion dollars. My God man, those are Federal crimes and our tax dollars.

Frist -- sits on the board -- not totaly innocent. Those are your charges as you posted above.

Frist has been federally charged and plead guilty to 69 counts -- to one count? What are you talking about??

[cynicom]

Free...Dont read things into what I post. Get up to speed on HCA.

[Wait4Truth]

President Bush has the unflagging support of 95% of Republicans, which stuns the liberal media. Get over yourselves.

The GOP caved in in 95 because of the withering attack directed at them from the Clinton slime machine and their friends in the media. They were deamonized non-Freeping stop and the polls showed it. As 95 progressed, the majority of the people in this country did not support the R's and their limited government plans and instead began to believe the slime machine.

Now you tell me why the *HELL* should any freeping politician care about Freeping limited government, when the majority of the voting population doesn't give a rats arse???

I'll wait here for your answer......
