Harkin Admits Socialized Medicine Coming

This bill is just a "starter home" before they build the mansion. Geez, what a bunch of liars.

Tom Harkin Hopes to Give Left Hope on Health Care

Ben Nelson Caves On Health Care

How many threats were issued? Many are saying that Nelson got many concessions, but Nelson knows what this bill actually represents. Huge deficits, federal control of over 1/6 of our economy, higher costs for individuals, penalties for those that don't want health insurance, the demise of options and the eventual adding of taxpayer abortions and government control over individuals private lives.

I hoped against hope that Nelson would actually show some ethics, but I am not surprised. I hope when he votes on the eve of the celebration of the birth of Christ that he can be at peace with himself. I wouldn't be able to be.

UPDATE:

Nelson says he cannot be bought

but, but but...

Every man has his price, apparently, and Harry Reid found Ben Nelson’s price for a cloture vote on ObamaCare

Best comment from above:

"Looks like assisted political suicide is covered under Obamacare."
