Let me see if I have this right. Harry Reid just had the health care bill modified to give Nevada a special consideration for financial relief from the impact of the health bill. Max Baucus went along with the changes for Nevada and three other states where incumbents like Reid were having a rough time because of the cost of the bill. It helps Reid, the Senate president, to demonstrate he is fighting for Federal revenue for his state. Smoke and mirrors at its hypocritical, sinister best.

By the way...that little health care perk was going to cost $2,300,000,000 to Nevada alone. Should I be worried about my President's "deficit neutral" promise?

Liberals ..... you must be very proud of this great Democratic leader. Whoaaa....what about the rest of the states? Right....we pick up the difference for Reid's Nevada and the other 3 coat tailing states and their reps who are having political difficulty selling "the plan" to the folks back home. A timely sweetener for the mother of all health care bills on the backs of honest, hardworking Americans.

Dedicated to BTK..."and the sheeple will follow."

Hopefully it will be lost during the reconciliation process.....

Don't like middle of the night earmarks or sweetheart deals for either party but this stuff is just business as usual.

Reid is in a bit of trouble as is Dodd...actually hoping Dodd loses he deserves it.
