Dr. Bill Frist (R- TN) is retiring from publiuc servece. He is one of the most honest and accomplished men in the history of the US Senate:


"He is currently licensed as a physician, and is certified in general surgery and heart surgery. He has performed over 150 heart transplants and lung transplants, including pediatric heart transplants and combined heart and lung transplants."


The Democrats want to replace Frist with Harold Ford Jr., now a member of the US House. Here is what a constituant had to say about Ford:


"For our non-Tennessee readers, a little more about the Ford family's checkered past:

His (Junior's) own father, Harold Ford, then a respected congressman, fought for years against charges of involvement in a bank-fraud scheme with banker Jake Butcher. Butcher and his brother were convicted and went to jail. Ford was acquitted.

Junior's uncle Emmitt Ford was convicted of insurance fraud while he was a state representative and served time in prison. And then there's his other uncle, State Senator John Ford. Whew! His numerous foibles are too many to list."



Other say the the Fords are nothing but family of crooks and petty crimnals.

Harold Ford Jr. can be seen on YouTube in a film clip. He claims to be a lawyer but flunked the bar exam.

This is waht the Dems put up to replace Dr. Frist? Shame on them.
