Terrorist in the US Senate???

One of the tactics employed by terrorists is to hold hostages and then release them for ransom. In an 11th hour move to obtain leverage on the Health Care Bill before the Senate...Senator (Ali) Ben Nelson of Nebraska agreed to give a Yea Vote in exchange for the concessions outlined below.

Nelson also secured full and permanent federal funding for his state to extend Medicaid eligibility to everyone below 133 percent of the federal poverty level. The bill would require all states to do so, but Nebraska alone would not be required to pay a portion of the additional cost after 2016. And he won concessions for some nonprofit insurers and for providers of supplemental Medicare coverage from a new insurance tax, and he was able to roll back cuts to health savings accounts


What happened to our President's pledge for CHANGE and TRANSPARENCY...we now negotiate with terrorists if the ends justify the means!
