All is not well in the good ship Elephant. It was bad enough that Republicans had to hold their nose and defend scandal-ridden House Majority Leader Tom DeLay but now it turns out the Senate's head honcho, Senator Bill Frist, has played fast and loose with ethics in some stock sales.
Frist, of course, claims he did nothing wrong. DeLay claims the same thing and everyone knows he's a crook. Frist suffers from the same disease that infects most politicians -- a blind belief that, somehow, the rules don't apply to them.
And they don't as long as voters continue to put these criminals in office and keep them there. Those who vote for crooks like DeLay and Frist (and support them in the name of "party loyalty') are just as guilty and contribue just as much to the moral decay within our government and society.
As far as Bill Frist is concerned, I say give him the same treatment that Martha Stewart received. She was charged and convicted of a crime also related to insider trading. If this atty general has the evidence and this guy doesn't spend some time behind bars, then government is lost as far as I'm concerned.
