Patting Frist on the back

There are those who seem skeptical of Bill Frist's motivations to buck Bush on stem cell research.

Some think that Frist is only doing it to position himself for a Presidential run in 2008. Some think he's trying to distance himself from Bush's tanking approval ratings. Others believe that he finally found his inner doctor and decided that science isn't as bad as his campaign funders would have him believe.

I'm sure it's the pragmatic politico in me, but I really don't care what his motives are.

Funding and expanding stem cell research is the right thing to do. I have loved ones that can potentially benefit from this research. Perhaps Frist does too.

I spend a lot of time on this blog tearing new assholes for conservatives who I believe deserve it. It's only right to pat this particular conservative on the back for stepping up and doing the right thing.

Well done, Senator Frist.
