As he attempts to extricate himself from the kooky religious right in preparation for his ill-fated presidential run, Bill Frist acknowledges how wrong the Republican congress was to insert itself into the Schiavo family’s private business.
Asked on NBC’s “Meet the Press” if he had any regrets regarding the Schiavo case, Frist said: “Well, I’ll tell you what I learned from it, which is obvious. The American people don’t want you involved in these decisions.”
Yes, Bill, you shouldn’t stick yourself in the middle of people’s personal private decisions. Common sense to some, a revelation for a Republican.
But they *do* want you getting involved in abortion decisions! That’s strange! Oh well!
OW, that wasn’t the most startling part of the interview for me. When he didn’t back down from his “diagnosis” via video, while claiming that he saw special “court approved” (whatever that means) video to make his diagnosis, that was just unnerving.
Standard program of Republican Denial.
