Let's Tabulate The Bribers, Extortionists And Cheats For Health Care Reform III

Bernie Sanders publicly stated that he hated the Senate's health care reform bill, but now he's voting for it. Huh? Well, Bernie wanted $4 billion more for a program he likes, so Reid gave it to him for his vote. Basically Bernie wants to love people with other peoples money and now that the taxpayer will have to cough up another $4 billion Bernie will vote for a health care reform bill that nobody likes or wants. Socialists are lovable that way.

Buying the Left, Too
Earlier this week, Vermont socialist Bernie Sanders expressed his disappointment with the Senate bill, particularly its lack of a government-run insurance plan, and went so far as to say, "As of this point I am not voting for the bill." Now Sanders appears to be back in the fold. If you're wondering how Reid secured his vote (I was), here's how:
