is the Moonie Karl Rove! Just what we needed.

Thanks for the info starroute. I'm saving copies of all this information on my HD in case it should ever "disappear".

Notice the invocation of Bill Frist in the scare letter from this group. Bill Frist is the grand-daddy of corporate medical fraud. How appropriate he should be mentioned in relation to these swine.

The Bad Doctor: Bill Frist’s long record of corporate vices
January 10, 2003

by Doug Ireland
LA Weekly
While TV gushed last week over the Republicans’ new Senate majority leader, Bill Frist, intervening in a traffic accident, portraying the former heart surgeon as a "Good Samaritan," in truth the GOP has simply replaced a racist with a corporate crook.

Frist was born rich, and got richer — thanks to massive criminal fraud by the family business. The basis of the Frist family fortune is HCA Inc. (Hospital Corporation of America), the largest for-profit hospital chain in the country, which was founded by Frist’s father and brother. And, just as Karl Rove was engineering the scuttling of Trent Lott and the elevation of Frist, the Bush Justice Department suddenly ended a near-decadelong federal investigation into how HCA for years had defrauded Medicaid, Medicare and Tricare (the federal program that covers the military and their families), giving the greedy health-care behemoth’s executives a sweetheart settlement that kept them out of the can.
