To display your displeasure, simply mail 30 nickles to his office...

Ben will pocket them for his retirement fund.
I am going to send him the link for onlinebootycall.com so he can make some extra income.
Nickel is not the metal he needs to be sent!
Could I just send a photo copy of the coins? I don’t want to send him anymore than he already is getting...
Why nickles? Why 30?
Something like 30 pieces of silver to buy his vote.
I now believe the democrats will lose both houses in 2010.
You can single out Nelson all you want, but it will take 60 votes to pass this thing, so why not go after the other 59 equally?
I mean, if Chuckie Schumer’s folks had used a condom...
It’s an unnatural act for a Dem senator to oppose the D leadership on what they perceive as the biggest vote in 100 years.
I’m not supporting or approving, I’m just saying that making Ben Nelson in the villain isn’t going to help our cause one iota. He knows this is unpopular back home, and he’ll probably announce that he’s retiring and won’t run again anyway.
This is what is meant when they say: “elections have consequences”.
Providing that there is a meaningful election in 2010.
Knowing this bunch of power hungry _______ [Fill in blank] that have been placed in control of America by thaitors to America, do you expect them to give up their power merely because they were voted out of office?
No, a nickel is more valuable....send him some of them copper plated, zinc pennies that aren’t worth a damn.

Save your nickels- may I suggest printing and sending (you can fax and or e-mail it too) an image like this, to ALL those voting for this disaster of a bill.
send metal slugs. those punch out pieces from the electrical boxes. i have several hundred I have been holding for a special ocassion ( actually was going to take them to a metal recycler, along with copper, brass and so forth, once a year visit).
Exactly!
The Dems could have had a simple vote weeks ago - 60 Ayes, Motion Carried. The WHOLE drama here has centered about getting payoffs for holding out.
Nelson is just a better poker player than the average Senator. Mary Landrieu decided to call when she saw the color of their money a couple of weeks ago.
Forget Nelson. His vote was never in doubt, only the concessions were.
Ask YOUR Senator what he’s getting for YOUR state!
Heck, I live in IL and Rollie Burris said he wouldn’t vote for it unless he could bring a public option back to his constituents. So, that’s his price - now we’ll see if he gets it, or if he folds under pressure (which I expect).
Really?

Yes, 30 slugs seems best - wrapped in a picture of an aborted baby.
Oh. (Red-faced.) (I was raised Catholic.)
Mea culpa and thanks for the answer.
GOOD STRATEGY!
Judas Ben-Nelson (D-Iscariot).
30 pieces of silver was the price the Jews paid to Judas for betraying Jesus.
