28. The thought of this Bozo....
That freaking Frist and his Bozo the clown mentality literally makes me want to froth at the mouth like a rabid dog.

I was reading about his "charitable" foundation which is nominally to help victims of AIDs in Africa, but it was really a way to funnel the bulk of the donations into political "consulting" fees which are phenomenally high, and to keep his campaign staff together and "working" for the foundation.

I contemplate the good old IRS trying to pull the 501(c)3 from that Episcopal pastor who said the war in Iraq is wrong and should be ended because it was in the judgement of whomever pulls their strings a "political" statement, and I about pop like crayfish fried without oil. Then the IRS lets Frist pull this crap while enjoying a tax exempt status for his "foundation" without question, or challenge. Yes, he did give a little bit of what he collected as "charity", but the patterns of and operations of the foundation make it very clear that it is first and foremost a political entity abusing non profit rules.

And has anyone mentioned lately that he had full knowledge and control over his "blind" trust? Insider trading, fraudulent manipulation of assets he is not supposed to have access to while he holds public office, and now a "foundation" which is really a political organization. What more could we ask for? Is this a Renaissance man or what? All that and his much vaunted diagnostic skills in the Schiavo case.

The real question is, though, does that man now know or did he ever know his ass from a hole in the ground?:argh:
