U.S Senator Bill Nelson (D) Fla., spoke about a number of issues facing Floridians today. At his office in West palm Beach, Senator Nelson discussed a possible solution for the democratic delegate issue – and voiced concern that if something wasn’t done soon to reach a compromise there could be “blood on the floor” in Denver during this year’s Democratic Convention.
Senator Nelson also believes there’s still a chance to help people feeling the pinch from the current housing crisis. Low-interest loans – even federal bond issues to help states encourage banks to negotiate with non-speculators.
As hurricane season approaches, Senator Nelson says FEMA has come a long way but still lacks a plan to help Floridians displaced by a storm with short and long-term housing alternatives. He says he’s been pushing hard for FEMA to deliver him their plan, but that with less than two months to go before the start of another storm season, Nelson says they’ve yet to put that plan on his desk.
And this week, the senator says he will head a committee on Capitol Hill looking into a dark and disturbing allegation being made in Iraq. Women, working for private U.S, contractors, he says, have been drugged and raped – only to find their allegations swept under the rug. Nelson say he expects there will be dramatic testimony from victims this week, and he wants those responsible for these attacks brought to justice.

ROTFLMAO! So who is Charlie Crist’s twin? George Hamilton or Libarace?
I think we on FR better watch out on this kinda stuff and not cross over a line, if you get my drift. Just sayin......

Okie dokie.
Nattering nabob of negatism that he is...
LOL!
The crash and burn Senator.
I love it. ;o)
Interview with Senator Bill Nelson(D-FL)[”there could be “blood on the floor” in Denver”]....
can only hope....it will be better than the re-runs on TV!!!
Bill Nelson is one of my pathetic senators. The other is Mel Martinez. Together they couldn’t make one real man or one brain.
Oh great, another reality show. The blood will probably be paper cuts from all the daily DNC faxes.
My husband is PRAYING for RIOTS!
They WERE the illegal aliens; and the Israelites were hopelessly divided and pathetic. So the only Midianite view that mattered was the confounded view they had in the end. The only Israelite strength, wisdom or insight that mattered was that of a simple leader who obeyed the Voice of the ONE who could see the big picture.
As I’ve said here recently, there will be no Democrat convention in Denver.
I agree with you, we should be cautius............
Yeah, it's lots of fun now with Operation Chaos, and watching the Dems, especially Hillary, self-destruct ....but if it actually comes to violence, and people are hurt and properties destroyed, Republicans can expect to be blamed...
I think we are in a tough situation anyway.....no matter if Obama loses the nomination, or if he loses the General election, there will be trouble. Either way, the blacks will feel the presidency was stolen from them.
Sounds like Nelson has been rooting around in the swamp-sumps looking for something to throw at McCain.
This would set up a "show trial" of the War God McCain, in which Hillary the Vindicatrix would be the Chief Prosecutrix for All Womankind -- 'course, this won't work if Obama gets the nomination.
I always figured her for more of a Tokarev man. Or maybe a Stetchkin.
In a rat fight, the last one to surrender, wins.
It will make Rodney King and the ensuing riots and destruction look like a nice game of tiddlywinks in Hyde Park.
