Bill Frist Is Unroastable

From The Hill:

Retiring Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.) is apparently un-roastable. He’s not even lightly toastable.

On Thursday, newly minted Senate Minority Leader-to-be Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) hosted a little goodbye get-together in the Capitol Building’s Mansfield Room for his buddy Frist and friends both on and off the Hill. Such occasions are usually marked with much ribbing, roasting and good cheer. And, naturally, we thought it would be a good chance to finally get senators to ’fess up about some of their favorite funny Frist moments.

Alas, there don’t seem to be many.

“I don’t think he’s the sort of person you hear anything funny about,” said Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), who said some nice things about Frist, but couldn’t seem to cough up any funny tales about him.

That sums up the leadership of the Republican party, doesn't it? Dry as toast. Blander than bland. And as spineless as Ined Loopner's deceased husband.

At least at a Democratic roast, there's always something to laugh about: Bill Clinton getting a blowjob from an unpaid subordinate and him sticking a cigar in her pussy, Hillary's cattle futures and legendary bad temper, Nancy Pelosi's facelifts and botox injections, John Murtha's ABSCAM involvement, the judicial impeachment of Alcee Hastings, Ted Kennedy being drunk and killing a woman, Barney Fag, Christopher Dodd fucking Bianca Jagger, Robert Torricelli fucking Bianca Jagger, Jesse Jackson having an affair and fathering a child, Robert Byrd's KKK past, Dennis Kookcinich, and so on. I'd rather be at that party.
