Senator Frist's last midnight add on

sean1 · Oct 25, 2006

I heard on the radio today that either this year or last year, around midnight, he added a small bill to a defense bill.

This small bill exempts drug makers from certain liabilities and lawsuits.

Anyone want to guess if his "blind" trust is invested in any major drug companies?

The guy is truly scum.

O/U 4.5 years on him being investigated and convicted of something. Scum is too kind a word.

I'm not sure if this is the issue but I recall something about vaccine manufacturers being excluded from liability.

I can't help but wonder why a successfull man in the medical field with an MD would WANT to become a US Senator.

Probably because he was tired of actually working for a living and couldn't impose his morals on the larger American public as an MD...plus, there's the fact that most people don't like their doctor to be a total scumbag

I'd really like to see his hand picked successor lose Frist's seat for the GOP. Y'all ought to go throw his opponent some coin to help make sure it happens:

His family is worth hundreds of millions of dollars from med buisnesses they formed. Undoubtably they have benifited from his influence.
