Face time for Frist...
Is this what this ricin "scare" is all about, just to give the KatKiller some free face time, tea, and sympathy? I've had my TV muted on CNN, but he's been up there blabbing on incessantly for over thirty minutes, I know!

I don't recall them giving Daschle or Leahy their own personal press conferance when they were attacked with anthtrax. Sheez, these Pugs really know how to pull the punches, don't they? I wish there would be just ONE outrage that they weren't able to get away with... and this would be a nice one for starters. :mad: :grr: :spank:

Edited on Tue Feb-03-04 03:14 PM by Drifter
shit on TV this morning. He was waaaaaaay to jovial to have just experienced an attempt on his life.

I remember seeing Daschel after the Anthrax attacks, and he at least looked as though someone had tried to kill him.

I think this whole Ricin thing, was a safe way to get the bush* investigation/AWOL off the front pages, and fear back on everyones minds.

Cheers

3. That ricin sure was
caught in a hurry. I wonder who dreamed up this plot. I feel the anthrax was actually real. I really would like to know the joker in the cards. And wasn't G. Gordon Liddy supposed to have been a hitman? Back in the Nixon years.

5. Wasn;t there something important going on before
the ricin and boob incidents? Seems like there was.... hmmm I don't remember now. Must not have been important. I know the media would keep me informed of it.

6. Another Right Man at the Right Time
Aren't we lucky to have a doctor -- WOW a REAL doctor! -- watching over us in this scary age of imminent bioterror threat? I know I feel my babies are safe when I see his handsome face on the televsion.

I thought we were already lucky that there was A Sheriff in Town on 9/11!

/sarcasm off

Isn't it kind of creepy that Republicans would be the target this time, when the Main Talking Point is "Democrats are attacking the President!"? Gee, could it be just as Ann Coulter has been warning us? And to think almost voted for Kerry --WHEW!!!

Just a coincidence that this happened just before Super Tuesday?

Frist the Kat Killer is a very creepy guy. Seems to me the last time he got face time was when he "saved" people from a burning SUV in FL the day after he was appointed by Bush.

It may not be a tightly organized conspiracy all around BUT the smirkistas all seem to have all their ducks in a row spin-wise, doncha think?

7. OMG...
I had completely forgotten about "SuperFrist... Hero du jour" and the SUV wreck. Now that you mention it, I thought that was really weird at the time. These "coincidences" may be just that, but things are happening with too great regularity NOT to have a very suspect origin. Argghhh!!!

10. Right, right, right! You're RIGHT. Since frist will replace cheney in 04
and will run for prexy in 08, he's getting, as you say, face time, that he wouldn't otherwise.

GOOD call.
