Bill Frist Engages in Demagoguery


This is unconscionable
: "Senator Bill Frist, the majority leader, has agreed to join a handful of prominent Christian conservatives in a telecast portraying Democrats as 'against people of faith' for blocking President Bush's nominees."

An advertisment for the show reads: "The filibuster was once abused to protect racial bias, and it is now being used against people of faith."

When the two biggest Republicans in the congress are leading a national campaign to out demagogue each other to conservative christians, it would appear the Republican party is now firmly in the pocket of Christian Conservatives.
