Frist Threatens Nuclear Test

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- In a fashion reminiscent of Kim Jung Il, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-TN) has threatened to conduct a test of the "nuclear option" if Democrats continue to threaten a filibuster over President Bush's judicial nominees.

In a blustery monologue, Frist took on a tone unusual for this normally mild, soft-spoken member of the group known as Washington Insiders Making Progress. "I will turn this Senate into a lake of... tepid water... that's unfit for bathing in", he said. "So there. Take that, you big bad Democrats you."
