Greed
 
Sen.Nelson from Nebraska stands for and is a prime example of everything that is wrong with America/Government. In order to get reelected (which may not now happen) he sold out the country and proved that you can deal with the "devil". Can anyone see Jefferson being bought out like Nelson.
It is a sad day for the american people.

Yes the class acts:
 
Spectre
Burris
Rangle just to prime the pump with a few more dregs.

Just like the gal who held out not too long ago and got $300,000,000 in goodys for her state then sold out.

And oh by the way....theses concessions and favors come from what fund? Source? The tax payer. Stealing without a gun and a mask.

And Reid has the nerve to categorize it "...as the way negotiations work in politics...":yuck:

I believe that someone from the WH/the Admin advised Sen. Nelson that if he did NOT vote FOR this bill, the Strategic Air Command facility in his state would be SHUT DOWN - a further loss of jobs and resources to his state - its citizens - his constituents.

If this is so, I do not see Sen. Nelson's vote as a vote FOR the bill or as selling out the country. Rather, I see it as more arm twisting, negative reinforcement, threatening and retaliatory actions of this POTUS!

Such behavior is not acceptable in my book. I can't wait to vote against my incumbent representatives - so much so that I mught be the first in line to vote on election day!

Get Rid of Incumbent Politicians

Or maybe a better word for it would be "bribery"?
