Against People...

“Senator Bill Frist, the majority leader, has agreed to join a handful of prominent Christian conservatives in a telecast portraying Democrats as "against people of faith" for blocking President Bush's nominees.”

Frist scares me. He obviously doesn’t care that a republic needs to protect diverse opinions if it is to survive. What do you call a country where only one opinion is allowed? We need an independent judiciary, not one that follows some party line…in this case, Frist is doing his best to demonize those who disagree with Bush.

And what if those Democrats are “people of faith” as well? Or can Frist see into the hearts of all? He obviously has superpowers as he was recently able to diagnose a medical condition by simply looking at a short video clip.

He does have a Doctorate in Medicine, but I wonder if that course of instruction included Ethics 101?
