Frist saves accident victims
Anyone here seen "The Contender"? $20 says this was staged.

1. Good Start, Bill ...
If the story's true, that's 6 people he's helped ...

What's his plan for the other 40 million who have no health care ???

Will he make house calls ??? He's gonna be a busy guy ...

They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I just think he should be a full time EMT and leave the Senate altogether, where he will be the official White House Whore.

11. That's EMH...

6. Being cynical here
but my guess is that this is a bit more of the usual bushista propaganda. Sure he may have happened upon an accident and got out to assist, but speaking as an ex-paramedic, we found doctors at the scene mostly got in the way unless they were emergency room physicians. Most doctors and nurses are not trained in emergency medicine and simply don't know what to do at a scene.

8. I have read
(I don't remember where so take it for what it's worth) that many will hesitate to assist because of potential liablity of a malpractice suit (triggered by the fact many don't know what to do in a Truama scenerio).

7. IF it's true ( I doubt it) BFD
the man is a freaking doctor. that's what doctors are supposed to do. Of course , being a republican it would be amaing if he did the right thing.

"An evil exists that threatens every man, woman and child of this great nation , we must take steps to ensure our domestic security and protect our homeland."
-Adolf Hitler


"The people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country."
- Herman Goering (second in command to Adolf Hitler) at the Nuremberg Trials

"He may look like an idiot and talk like an idiot but
don't let that fool you. He really is an idiot."
- Groucho Marx


"He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my
contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the
spinal cord would fully suffice."
-- Albert Einstein

9. Wait'll He Screws Up Running the Senate
Howard the Duck FINEMAN, a.k.a. Pompous Nowhere Man, said on IMUS 1-2 that he KNOWS this guy, that Saint FRIST has hundreds of pictures on his office wall of all the people he has saved, that as a world class surgeon his style is to COMMAND immediate compliance from a whole troop of auxilliary doctors and nurses in the operating room, that the Senate doesn't work this way.

Is this a breach of the canonization process? For now the ROVE flying monkeys are savoring their product's flying high. But as the Roman emperors knew, a successful general out there is a potential RIVAL. Unless he will be a TOTAL subordinate to ROVE-Shrub, without an independent thought in his sainted head, it will be difficult for them to control their Frankenstein's monster. His santification has gone so far that, if they ever want to dump him, how will they discredit him?------unless he does a melt-down.

10. It DID happen in Broward County...
...home of the right wing in Florida, the people who helped Luther Campbell sell millions of records. Somebody call Oliver Stone...

13. Another Case of LIHOP
It was the first thing I thought of.

I mean, THINK ABOUT IT, people!

Who benefits from something like this? (Frist + GOP)

Who justm "happened" to be in Miami? (Frist)

No, no, people -- there are just too many facts here that point to the unassailable conclusion that Frist/GOP/BFEE Let It Happen On Purpose -- or that they MADE it happen on purpose!!!!

And, as far as the two people who died, what makes anyone think that this current evil regime would care about two -- or more -- people dying, as long as it furthered their evil intentions and designs.

Perhaps someone should start another thread on this.
