Bill Frist is doing whatever he can to position himself for the presidency, but in doing so, one has to wonder if he’s not just making himself look that much worse.? Frist reversed himself and broke from what is the unofficial party line about the raid on Representative Jefferson’s office that has been rankling the Congress for lo this last few days.? Details are murky for the uninitiated, and really, the whole argument is largely proceedural in ways that don’t really interest the public.

Why, then, would Frist bother to reverse himself on the situation?? Why does he now claim that the FBI acted within Constitutional limits when most of his Republican colleges disagree?? One can never tell what is in the mind of the slipperly-witted Frist.? This is the same guy who said Terri Shiavo was perfectly fine based on his review of video cassette tapes.

Frist is trying to get himself into the running for the Presidency.? However, much as Tom DeLay is the oft-regarded evil of The Right, Bill Frist may be doing a lot more to position himself as the poster-boy for Right Wing Bafoonery.
