Growing Speculation Hovers Over Bill Frist

[Mark E. Smith]

JACKSON, Tenn. - At stop after stop in his home state of country music and rhythm and blues, Sen. Bill Frist - the majority leader of the U.S. Senate - hears the siren song of higher office. From the boardroom of an all-black college to the head table of a county GOP dinner, Frist hears the same appeal: Run for president in 2008.

The presidential speculation, feverish in his home state of Tenn, may seem preposterously early. But it's become a plot line in Washington that hovers over Frist's obligation as Senate majority leader to push President Bush's ambitious agenda into law, from changing Social Security to appointing conservative judges.

Somebody needs to patent rubber dead cats now. Really gnarly looking ones that will make a nice effect when they fly in from the crowd and land with a thud on the stage at Senator Kitty Killer's feet.

1. Cat fetus

in formaldehyde.

Murderer murderer.

2. Mark my words,

Cheney will resign for health reasons in the next couple of years and bush* will appoint Frist as his v.p. so he can have some experience going into 2008. Write it down! :-)

[camby]

3. When Frist goes for President in '08 will the Religious Right

even blink about the fact that abortions are performed at Frist-owned medical facilities in Nashville? Naaaah...

[saltpoint]

4. A very plausible scenario, Bronco69.

I like the odds on that prediction.

[Bronco69]

7. The reason I say this is because the rpukes are nowhere near

finished with their agenda, in fact they've hardly begun. They need someone they can trust to fulfill it and since cheney* isn't running in 2008 Frist is as close as they can come to finding someone to carry on.

[saltpoint]

15. I think you're right about that agenda.

But I hold out hope that Frist will bore voters to bits. He's very dull on the stump.

[koopie57]

22. Maybe, which would be bad

but I think that when push comes to shove they will be shoving the florida bush down our throats.

[saltpoint]

27. Yes, ol' Jeb is probably down there weighing his options.

Perhaps Fate will be kind to the progressives and Jeb will be devoured by a ravenous crocodile on a public relations jaunt into the Everglades.

I don't think crocodiles are all that political, and a Republican governor is no better or worse to them than a Democratic governor.

But in this case I hope that the crocodile in question has a powerful hankering for GOP governors.

Bon apetit, crocodiles!

[Cobalt Violet]

23. Mark my words too: the media won't cover his cat killing past much.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

5. Frist: worse than Bush, even though it may not seem possible at the moment

[BillZBubb]

8. If that quotation is totally accurate, Frist is one sick dude.

Even fundies, if they love cats, won't support someone that creepy (I hope!).

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

10. He is sick. It's a quote from HIS book.

6. Elmer Gantry for president.

I hope he does. The press (and the voters) will tear him a new one.

[EVDebs]

9. Nobody told the TN doctor about "First Do No Harm"....what'd he do?

but go out pushing this Social security claptrap...

What a goes around comes around...

[despairing optimist]

21. He's dyslexic, read that as, "Frist Harm No Dog"

So he went after cats. QED.

[Nickster]

29. LMAO! Spewwwwwww!!

[The_Casual_Observer]

11. Well one things for sure, he has the fox news haircut down pat.

[Blue to the bone]

13. The bastard is a cat-killer!.....hope he supports abortion. n/t

[The_Casual_Observer]

16. He would never support abortion. Oh, he would if he felt

it would be a winning strategy, but it isn't in the bible belt, so there it is.

[Blue to the bone]

17. That was my poor attempt at irony. n/t

[The_Casual_Observer]

20. Sure, but it gave me a good excuse to pontificate some more

thanks!:+

[xxqqqzme]

26. it's the trent lott

helmet head. When he gets his har cut, he shows a pucture of lott 2 the stylist.

The rubber dead cat thing is a great idea!

[Mark E. Smith]

28. How about some "Hello Kitty!" stuff?

Hello Fristy?

Or that cat food our feline friends love so much, Fristies?

[Emboldened Chimp]

12. A Frist run would be a god-send....

...nobody is more boring and vulnerable to attack than Bill Frist. Bring. It. On.

[OldLeftieLawyer]

18. I get this weird feeling from Frist

Something's really not right there.

Maybe it's a girl thing, but that guy's far creepier than - I think - anyone even suspects.

Somewhere there's a door to a closet. Inside the closet are all kinds of secrets he's hiding.

I just get this feeling about him.

[yurbud]

24. he is creepy, but in a cowardly, furtive way

[karlrschneider]

25. I sure do agree with that. I can't put my finger on it but the guy truly

is awfully creepy. And I don't think I get the feeling just because of what I know about him, it's the look in his eyes or body language or...well shit I just don't know exactly. If I was having heart surgery and he walked in, I'd run for nearest exit, that's for sure! :evilgrin:

[Edgewater_Joe]

14. He'll Never Win

The guy's got all the charisma of a two-by-four, with less charm. None of that 'have-a-beer' thing the sheeple seem to want.

[OzarkDem]

19. They brought him to Cleveland

the other day, and the local right wing rag ran his pic (in scrubs, no less) on the front page.

They guy has no personality or charisma - he's like a zombie.

[not fooled]

30. Yeah, but folks...

...remember that Frist's true character/charisma or lack thereof has VIRTUALLY NO BEARING on his viability as a candidate. All the 'pukes need is kkk to work his evil spell and the press will lionize cat-killer.

Remember, if kkk could make an incompetent boob like * prezident (w/help from the voting system), he could take a homeless guy off the street and get him into the White House.

Expect that, whether Frist or Jebblubber or someone else, kkk has the next couple of yrs to turn some crooked nasty 'puke into Grade A Preziduntial beef.

And I, for one, have no more confidence that the corpse media will accurately portray the next heartless bastard than they did the chimp (= virtually not at all).

By the way, in addition to being a heartless psychopathic cat murderer, Frist and his family's chain of HMOs pulled the biggest scam in Medicare history (record fine for ripping off the taxpayers). How much about THAT do you ever hear??? (crickets chirping)

P.S. I agree that Frist is exceptionally creepy.
