Mickey Kaus...

He be funny!:

The comments of Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.), made as GOP lawmakers returned from a week of trying to sell the Bush plan to voters, underscored the challenge facing the White House.

Frist supports the president's proposal for creating personal investment accounts but acknowledged to reporters that the plan is in trouble. "We are never, ever going to do this," Frist said. "But I wouldn't take it off the table yet," he added, noting that when he was a medical student "cadavers would often lie around on top of desks for weeks."

I sense a skit for "Saturday Night, Live" in all this:

(Knock at Door)
Who's there?
(Muffled response)
AARP?
(Nothing)
Bill Frist?
(Muffled response)
SSA Lock Box?
("flowers")
Flowers? Your no florist, you're George Bush with Social Security Reform, aren't you?
("candy?")
(Opens Door)AARRGGHHH! Land Shark!
