Bill Frist is damned out of his own mouth, courtesy of some research from Billmon. I guess this is a good example of that “revisionist history” that the president was talking about. This process is what Ben Hyde calls the “internet acid bath.”

And please read the comments section, where Billmon explains his rigorous and physically demanding research methods.

What does Kenneth Pollack have to say about WMD these days?

I think that he’s in full spin mode – he meant that Iraq should have been invaded sometime in the far, fuzzy future, or something like that.

And in terms of ‘acid bath’, that metaphor will hold only if there is some damage done to Frist.
