Here's what I'm hearing. The deal for Ben Nelson includes additional Medicaid funding for Nebraska and carve outs for physician owned hospitals in Nebraska — and Nebraska only. Uncle Sam will take the hit for 100% of the Medicaid expansion for Nebraska, forever. Nebraska is the only state to get this deal.
It profits a man nothing give his soul for the whole world, but for Medicaid funding carve outs....

Now I’m even more pissed...
Did they throw in a better-fitting toupee for Ben Nelson? His current hair looks like he inherited it from Howard Cosell.
What hath we wrought?
I see the legality of this being challenged very early on. Asking 49 states to subsidize one, just won’t cut it.
I daresay about 60% of the nation’s taxpayers share your rage.
“I see the legality of this being challenged very early on. Asking 49 states to subsidize one, just won’t cut it.”
YEP!!!!
Under the Constitution it won't.
Under a kingdom it will.
Nelson never was interested in what was or is in the bill; he’s interested in what money he can get out of it. Dig deep, follow the money. My money’s on the probability that he’s got a stake in a couple of ‘Doctor-Owned’ hospitals therebouts. An effing crook just like the rest.
So I guess his vote was for sale, after all.
I feel bad for his staff having to answer the phone calls.
“Uncle Sam will take the hit for 100% of the Medicaid expansion for Nebraska, forever.”
Uncle Sam? No such thing. That there is OUR MONEY.
And my state should have to fund this?
Principles disappear quickly in Washington DC.
“Time to ne-goo-tiate.”
Why aren’t ALL the SENATORS DEMANDING THIS?????<P.If the bill is so damned good, why does THIS need to done and Mary Ho Landrieu’s 300 MILLION dollar bribe also??? WHORES...they are ALL WHORES!!
Oh no it isn't!
We HAVE to be up to at least our great, great, grand children by now.

Nelson is a miserable whore,paid for with our money.I am so pissed right now....
Obviously he didn’t give a damn about the ABORTION issue! What a FREAK!
So, then his stance on abortion was just a smoke screen. He used unborn infants in a despicable way to get a pay off. This man is lower than dirt. The name Ben Nelson and the term ‘scum’ can now be used interchangeably.
