Second Thoughts on Dr. Frist

My blog of July 30 threw some partial praise on Bill Frist for taking a contrary stance to the White House on the expansion of stem cell lines. As I noted in that blog, this was a very welcome development as I was beginning to doubt his scientific background when he "diagnosed" Terri Shiavo via video tape.

Alas, Dr. Frist has done a complete turnaround again.... This is from today's Wall Street Journal:

"Senate leader First echoed Bush in urging "intelligent design" be taught with evolution. Democrats say he sacrifices science for evangelical votes."
