The other Rats were pretty stupid for not holding out and getting their fair share of the bribe money.

I think the other states should sue the federal government for giving special privileges to Louisiana, Nebraska, and any other state that got special benefits in the healthcare plan. I had heard a few months back that three other states were getting the feds to pay for the state portion of the medicaid payments, and Nevada (Dirty Harry’s state) was one of them.

LOL. This broke about 6 hours or so ago and multiple threads have discussed it here on FR. Breaking indeed.

Maybe our elected officials should remove all doubt, and simply carry large price tags announcing, “For Sale to Highest Bidder.” It would be a step on the road to clarity.

Seems not only unethical but illegal. There is no reason why taxpayers from other states have to be bound to these deals.

what should we call Nelson for his historic sellout?

Judas Ben-Nelson (D-Iscariot).

The public option gets put back into the reconciliation bill.

Healthcare for illegals goes in the reconciliation bill.

Federal funding of all abortions including partial-birth goes in the reconciliation bill.

Pick the worst possible outcome; that is the reconciliation bill.

Obama is happy.

In short, Nelson is against killing babies unless paid enough money to kill them.

As an aside, favoring one state over another like this sounds unconstitutional. Or at least corrupt.

Ben Nelson is the new male prostitute. Even Tiger Woods is saying “Oh come on, at least I gave the ladies a good time”

"How about Ben Screwin the people nelson."

He just rolled over like a cheap whore. Email him like I did and let him know how you feel.

It would never pass the House.

My state's governor didn't see a problem.
