They want to punish Nelson and close the Offutt Airforce base. What? What about our national security?

"the White House is now threatening to put Nebraska’s Offutt Air Force Base on the BRAC list if Nelson doesn’t fall into line."

You might also want to contact Sen. Nelson and ask him to leave the Party of Death. Contact info. for Nelson is at Post No. 6 at the above link, compliments of TheLurkerX.

They would never do it because the Republican leadership (in the party back offices and major donors) are PRO-ABORTION RINOS.

Oh yeah, that’s what we need - another RINO!

If Senator Nelson stands firm on his healthcare stance and does not let Pelosi et al dictate his conscience and his dedication to his constituency by doing the Will of the People, I'll be the first in line to thank him for being a man who means what he says and says what he means. Unless and until then, any belief I may once have had that there must be some democrats who would "do the right thing" is pretty well toast.

The question everyone asks is "whatever happened to the JFK democrats?" My dad (bless his soul) would be so disappointed in the sell-out, spend-all party of now.

Nelson needs to switch

Nelson has disputed the claim that Obama threatened to close Offut.

With this “Chicago Mob” running things in DC, it sure seemed plausible, however.

...and give him an attractive job in the senate.

Like what? Any leadership post they give Nelson means that they would have to take it away from a long-time Republican. So who do you piss off?

The GOP is in the minority in the Senate and will likely be in the minority even after a really good 2010 season.

The GOP has nothing to offer that’s worth taking.
