Bill Frist Should Try Safer Investments
by matt at 11:00 am on September 23rd, 2005 in Bill Frist, EconomyWhile it’s a bit surprising to see the media actively reporting on Bill Frist’s latest adventure in the stock market, it’s also disappointing that their collective memory doesn’t reach back even nine months:
A campaign fund controlled by Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.) has lost almost $460,000 in stock market investments since 2000 and now does not have enough to cover a sizable bank loan, according to federal election records and the manager of the Frist account.
Guess he didn’t have any inside information on those stocks. Maybe he should look into municipal bonds or T-bills. Not quite as flash, but a whole lot less trouble for an ethically-shaky and intelligence-challenged Senator.

About as much chance of that as switching parties.
