House Majority Leader Frist is in hot-water with the SEC crowd...

It sure would be convenient to bring back the guy who was doing his job before all the trouble but wouldn't you know that an arrest warrant has been issued for that guy...

Maybe Karl Rove can handle it? Maybe not, he's too busy making contingency plans in case he gets indicted on another matter.

Dick Cheney's lapdog (Scooter) is in it pretty deep on this CIA thing. I'm sure that Dick knows nothing about it of course.

Sorry about all the links to LIBERAL MEDIA sites but I just couldn't avoid it. This stuff was splashed all over the front page. Or wait, no, I had to do a search to hear the latest. LIBERAL MEDIA is more concerned with whether or not a Wal-Mart heiress did her homework at USC, apparently.

As someone who leans, admitedly, to the republican side of things usually (not always) I would be pleased to see guys like DeLay and Frist out of the picture. They don't represent my views as well as some less radical republican politicians do. DeLay, I think and always have, is scum. Frist, while I don't know anything about any shadiness, is way too right for my liking.

Another guy is Kansas' own Senator Sam Brownback. I doubt he's crooked, but he's waaaaaaaaaaaay too right of center. He's also going to run for President (no chance).

To me, these guys are just as bad as the Nancy Pelosis of the world. Not that she's crooked, just too far left.

BTW...Frist is Senate Majority Leader, so he didn't take over DeLay's position.

It seems every the administration of every two-term President descends into scandal in the second term . . . . . Nixon, Reagan, Clinton and now Bush.

Ditto in Canada with Trudeau, Mulroney and Chretien.
