According to Michelle Malkin:
Update: A Hill source says to pay attention to Sen. Ben Nelson. He is reportedly being threatened with closure of an air force base if he doesn’t fall in line and will be offered a “blank check” bribe bigger than Sen. Landrieu’s.
Landrieu, as you may recall, accepted a $100 MILLION bribe – which she later said was really $300 million – in exchange for her Aye vote allowing the healthcare bill debate to proceed in the Senate.
No confirmation yet on the base closure threat, but if it’s true, it’s just furter proof that these Reid-led democrat crooks will stop at nothing – not even the weakening of our military and the destruction of a local economy – to get this healthcare bill passed.
If the threat alone doesn’t get Nelson, then we the taxpayers will fund the payoff that will buy Nelson’s vote – the very vote that will destroy not only our healthcare system, but our economy, our children’s future, and our very way of life.
Oh, and if you still think this bill is about healthcare, than you’re a bigger fool than you were when you voted these creeps into office in the first place.
