Frist follies. Doing the Houston Shuttle. Kosovo and the War on Terror. Baghdad blues. Permanent evolution. Plus much more.
p> FRIST SHALL BE LAST br> Re: The Prowler's The Celling of Bill Frist : /p>

One would deduce after reading the spin from whirling dervish Frist supporters about his 180-degree turn on embryonic stem cell research is the White House staff is guilty of shear blindness. Oh yes, Senator Frist has been talking to "a lot of people" including the New York Times. If he did speak to a lot of people his about-face would have wet the pavement long before he tipped off the liberal establishment. Apparently he did not speak to the President or his staff before he made a decision that was sure to cause turbulence.

The Frist supporters and lobbyists who depend on their "top flight air controller" are afraid of being grounded after their flight plan resulted in hitting the side of a mountain. If they think they can spin this thing to make it less bitter to the political base then they are in a thick fog and deserve to be grounded... and then pounded.

p>It is the staff of Senator Frist that is weak in the anticipation department. Here is an outcome Senator Frist's staff should anticipate: his much talked about run for the presidency has stumbled very badly. They only have themselves to blame for mistaking pot leaves for tea leaves. br> -- Diamon Sforza br> San Diego, California /p> p> Bill Frist has come to his senses. Why don't you? br> --
