WEATHERMAN BILL FRIST

BILL FRIST IS NOT JUST a senator, he is also doctor and a part time weatherman.  Yesterday Good Old Boy Medical Bill put down the embalming fluid cocktail that gives him his lively look long enough to warn Democrats about a long possible nuclear winter:

"It would be against the intent of the Founding Fathers and our Constitution to deny Sam Alito an up-or-down vote on the floor of the United States Senate," he said on "Fox News Sunday."

FRIST WHO ONLY LOOKS like he is dead apparently had a séance to speak with the dead to learn the Founding Fathers’ intent. The Founding Mothers were unavailable for comment.  Nobody on the ghost of journalism Fox News pointed out to Frist that the words “up and down vote” do not appear in the Constitution. Whether the Constitution is still living when Frist is done with it, no one knows. “The answer is yes,” Frist said when asked if he would he would say no to a Democratic filibuster of Sudden Sam Alito’s nomination to the Supreme Court.

I tell ya, that is one magical clairvoyant fella. He can do medical diagnosis through a TV set. And now time travel to go back and talk to Ben & the boys about the old "up & down". I hope he asked him about the old "in & out" at the same time. A genius! But, in order to gain independent confirmation I am going to have go back in time myself and ask Ben if that was REALLY what he told Bill. Because my sources tell me that Ben grabbed a hold of his "weather vane" and told Bill "howzabout you take this up and down your ass?" But that's just a rumor.

I can't help but wonder where Bill "Frosty" Frist was when Harriet Miers was denied her Founding-Father-mandated "up or down" vote.

A wise man once remarked, "You don't need a weather man to know which way the wind blows." Of course, that wise man was a liberal Jew, so I don't believe the good doctor ever made his acquaintance.
