IMPORTANT, Don't forget about Frist...

I know it's difficult keeping track of all the Republican scandals, but stuff has been coming out against Frist on a daily basis.

Yesterday, I saw him on CSPAN attacking the heart of Democrats. Boy, I hope he gets it like Martha.

1. He lied :)

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.) was given considerable information about his stake in his family's hospital company, according to records that are at odds with his past statements that he did not know what was in his stock holdings.

Managers of the trusts that Frist once described as "totally blind," regularly informed him when they added new shares of HCA Inc. or other assets to his holdings, according to the documents.

snip:
The letters seem to undermine one of the major arguments the senator has used throughout his political career to rebut criticism of his ownership in HCA: that the stock was held in blind trusts beyond his control and that he had little idea of the extent of those holdings.

2. I hope he gets it worse than Martha

Wasn't there much more money involved? I'd like the probation anklet to be around his neck!

3. Not that I necessarily support Martha, but...

wouldn't it be funny if Martha going to jail came back to haunt Frist. She was the scapegoat for all corrupt stockholders, and now her case might be used to send Frist to jail.
