Homage to Bill Frist

[swag]

[Fenris]

1. Man, he has a terrific sense of when to dump stock!

It's almost as if he was privy to inside information!

[swag]

3. Uncanny

"During the two-week period when Frist's sale occurred, the shares averaged $57.21, reaching a 52-week high of $58.60 on June 22. The shares closed Sept. 23 at $47.60, up $1.70, in New York Stock Exchange composite trading."

7. He shouldn't be in the Senate, he should be a trader!

He seems to have an amazing psychic ability to forsee upcoming dips in the stock prices of his family's own company!

[swag]

9. Fenris Speaks the Truth!

Frist is the Edwin Lefèvre of his generation.

Butcher Bill wasted both his time and much cute mammalian life skinning all those cats: he should have been skinning investors in bucket shops all those years, as he learned to do so many years later.


He seems to me a god, this Frist. Who is John Galt? Bill Frist!

[cynatnite]

2. Perfect!

:rofl:

4. Hey! Son of a Bee! What the heck ya know about this?

"Since he set up his blind trust in 2000, Frist has said that he is avoiding any conflict on interest on health-care issues because he no longer knows for sure whether he owns HCA shares or not."

but this?

"But documents suggest that Frist knew quite a bit about his accounts from nearly two dozen letters from the trust administrators.

Frist, R-Tenn., received regular updates of transfers of assets to his blind trusts and sales of assets. He also was able to initiate a stock sale of a hospital chain founded by his family with perfect timing."

Son of a bee!

10. Please remember, his family sold their shares too

All around the same time. Did they fear "the appearance of impropriety" too? :wtf:

[swag]

12. My, what a perfectly synchronized proper family.

Good People Beget Good People, after all. And customers respond! ->

[whistle]

5. Plus he says he ran it by his other republican buddies on the....

...ethics committee because he did not want to give the impression that he was selling for any other reason by to avoid a "conflict of interest". Right!

[swag]

8. Yes,

he wanted to avoid conflict of his own interest in achieving maximum profits for himself.

[ellenfl]

6. hey, now! the guy got lucky. you know, like martha! eom

[swag]

13. Destiny is just a roll of the dice.

Some wear ankle bracelets, some wear Tuck's Medicated Pads.

[peekaloo]

11. Lay off the good Doctor.

Remember someone sent him some evil paper dust once when it appeared his office had stolen e-mails from Democrats......can't remember how that investigation ended though.......it seems like the man is just plagued by unfortunate coincidence.

:sarcasm:

[swag]

14. .......it seems like the man is just plagued by unfortunate coincidence.

Yes, like the unfortunate coincidence of seemingly sharing a barber with Oregon Senator Gordon "Haircut" Smith.

[peekaloo]

17. lol....Jon Stewart calls that "style" the result of men who refuse to

let a gay person touch their hair.

[swag]

18. Dag, that hits the nail.

[Robertwf]

15. His best defense:

I was hearing voices. An Intelligent Designer made me do it.

[swag]

16. Will probably fly with today's judiciary.

[VPStoltz]

19. It's a talent he obviously learned from *.

[swag]

20. These brilliant Capitalist Heroes always fill me with Such Awe!

[Bozita]

21. looks like the medical doctor also has a PhD in market timing

Republicans are brilliant people.

It's in their DNA, the aristocrat gene.

IMHO, the blind in a blind trust held by a Republican is the public.

Fucking thieves!

[swag]

23. Well, it's interesting.

Remember a few years ago when his campaign fund lost half a million in the market?

No such problem here.

[karlrschneider]

22. Some guys just have all the luck.

:eyes:

[CitrusLib]

24. Or the uncanny ability to make their own luck.

What a hypocritical lying sack of shit he is.
