Tsk Tsk to Frist

Uncovered: The Frist File
Truthdig

No question. You can add this self-righteous PolitiCon to the list of crooks swaggering their corrupt power in America's face.
(And he looked like such a nice guy, too.... Tsk tsk.)
"The accusations are Medicare fraud, conflict of interest and insider trading. Bill Frist’s connection to his family’s Hospital Corporation of America (HCA) has landed him in hot water and earned him a subpoena from the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York and an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

HCA Inc., an international chain of hospitals founded in 1968 by Frist’s father, Thomas Frist Sr., and brother, Thomas Frist Jr., is one of the top-10 health care services companies, ranked by sales, according to Yahoo Finance."
