Bill Frist To Human Decency: "Fuck You"

The majority leader says in no uncertain terms that he doesn't care what happens in American detention centers:
Frist was asked if that meant he was not concerned about investigating what goes on in detention centers.

"I am not concerned about what goes on and I'm not going to comment about the nature of that," Frist replied.
Why should an elected official have to comment, after all? The accountability moment, as George Bush will tell you, has come and gone. These characters believe in one principle, the perpetuation of their own power, and nothing else. Link via Andrew Sullivan.
