Unless you've been under a rock today, you know that
Sen. Frist is touring some of the areas hit by the tsunami. Hell, he has only been gone a few hours and already has his
smiling mug, holding a few underprivileged kids on his web site.
True to form, this style over substance senator, further downgraded America's status in the world view by tell a staffer that was taking pictures of Frist at the scene to "get some devastation in the back".
That's right. Get some money shots so when i go home, i can archive 'em and use them in my Frist for White House ads.
This is the same guy, that happens to be leading our Senate right now, and due to a lack of intelligent voting for the past 2 election cycles, is leading the U.S. Senate in setting the agenda for our country for who knows how many years.
What else can we say about our boy Dr. Frist?
Yeah, he's a jerk and egomaniac, but what else. Well, for one, he likes to torture animals. He was the
Dr. Mengele of the animal world.
According to his own book, Transplant: A Heart Surgeon's Account of the Life-and-Death Dramas of the New Medicine, the pressure of Harvard Medical School turned him into something of a demon. "somewhere in the middle of it all, exhausted by years of no sleep and high anxiety, doubting every opinion I ever held, questioning every notion about myself that ever kept me going, I realized that instead of molding doctors, medical school was in the business of stripping human beings of everything but the raw, almost insane, ambition you must have simply to get through."
According to Frist's book, he had to kill animals for medical research as part of this training to be a doctor. But, says the Boston Globe in its article (you have to search the archives), "his new dilemma was finding enough animals to kill. Soon, he began lying to obtain more animals. He went to the animal shelters around Boston and promised he would care for the cats as pets. Then he killed them during experiments."
"It was a heinous and dishonest thing to do," Frist wrote. "I was going a little crazy."
And, he is a damn damn liar.
Not only did he lie about judicial appointements and filibusters, he also lied when he sought to discredit Richard Clarke, and protect his master, George W. Bush's ass.
After Mr. Clarke provided his stunning testimony to the 9-11 commission, Dr. Frist, marched down to the Senate floor and condemned Clarke and accused him of committing perjury. It was actually Dr. Bill that was lying like a rug...again.
You see, old Bill, based his allegations on transcripts of testimony Clarke provided in 2002. Frist later admitted he didn't even read the testimony in question.
So, this guy leads the GOP senate. I'm am so glad that we have such strong christian, moral leaders in the GOP and gov't today.
By, the way. Do you know why he went to the senate? Well to protect his family fortune of course.
