Big Surprise coming from the betrayor in the Senate.

From our local daily wipe in Kearney. Ben will hold out on announcing his vote until the very end, then we know he will betray us again, and vote with the Dims.

WASHINGTON ? As Senate Democrats race to finish a health care bill before Christmas, the importance of Nebraska Sen. Ben Nelson?s vote was highlighted by a half-hour, one-on-one meeting he had Tuesday at the White House with President Barack Obama.

Nelson?s meeting with Obama followed a general meeting that Obama had with the rest of the Senate?s Democratic caucus. Afterward, Obama said he didn?t count votes but thinks a consensus exists on key elements.

?What I told my former colleagues today is that we simply cannot allow differences over individual elements of this plan to prevent us from meeting our responsibility to solve a long-standing and urgent problem for the American people,? Obama said.

Nelson said after his meeting with Obama that the president made his case for how much the bill has improved. Nelson said he agreed with that but suggested various ways it could be improved further. He said he made no commitment to support the legislation in the end.

Well if hussian obama, wants to close the base he's $hi- , out of luck when he'll fly out of DC and he'll knows the only other location to go to would be to G. I. and then where. Just why is it important to come to the midwest well more than likely is to believe the citizens will defend the office because of the american pride being longstanding here in the midwest. But due to his lack of a noggen and having a pea in there that rattles around is his thought of clear thinking and regardless are we as citizens ready to sell our future children for the cost of a job? Yes I may not work their but due to the money he give out ( The latest the bad boy buggy) 5900.00 rebate to beleive this will stimulate the ecomony no!!! I do not have the answer but I didn't run for the office saying I would solve the worlds problems either I am looking to provide for my familys, shelter,food,warmth, and security for safety... I guess I'm just ranting here so I'll quit for now but Ben Nelson better standby HIS peoples wishes and Not Give In to BLACKMAIL....

The reason I'm posting this on this fourm is because of the Security=(MY GUN'S)&(MY AMM0)

E. Ben Nelson (a.k.a. Earl)  needs to make sure his unemployment office knows he's going to need his benefits next year!!!!!

Fox News yesterday reported on the radio that ****-for-brains threatened to close Offutt unless Earl voted for the health care bill.  10 minutes later, I was home and got on Earl's website.  Already there in black and white was a statement that any threat was false!!  WOW!!!! that was quick for them to correct that!!!!

Don't hold your breath, Earl sold us out!!!! Don't let him fool you!!!!  He'll vote FOR the health care debacle!!!!

I have a call to the AG's office asking for Bruning's opinion on the health care bill and whether it violates the 10th Amendment to the Constitution.  Haven't received a reply yet-hopefully I'll receive a positive answer!!

Is that Earl's real hair or just a toupee??  Hard to tell!  Maybe Porklosi can take a lil' lesson from Sarah Palin and have Earl stand next to her as she spits in her hand and combs down his colic!!! :o

Palin in 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would have to say that if this is true that Nelson was threatened with this... Then whoever made that threat, should be tried for treason.

This rumor couldn't have possibly come from the same White House squatter that promised to not raise taxes or sign pork bills would it?

There is nearly always some truth to rumors.

I emailed, I sold the farm Ben and gave him a piece of my mind. >:D  I also emailed Senator Johanns  and asked him to tell Ben the next time he see him to say "You can not never wear Big Red again!"  I think I am going to go dig a hole and hide some stuff! ;D

I also just emailed "earl" benjamin nelson expressing my displeasure to his supporting the health care bill.

I reminded him that he WILL be voted out of office and wished him best in his retirement!

This swine sold us out in a "compromise"!!  I wonder what he personally gained out of this from Harry, nancy and the brown shirts in obongo's club of lunatics!!!

I recommend to "earl" that he contact bob kerry or chuck hagel to see if they'll give him room and board as he will NOT be welcomed here at home!!!!!

Sorry Guys, but I had to vent!!!  Do we still have to addresse him as proper?   I don't believe he's earned it!

I would say there was a pretty good turn out for the short notice that was given to the public. However, I did not see much media coverage going on while I was there. It will be interesting to see what is reported on the event this coming week.

I was sick all day and now can't sleep but really was hoping to make it out.  :-\ How many people turned out for this? Rough estimates? Something tells me that they won't cover anything about it but who knows sometimes you get surprised.

The Omaha Music Hall was ~ 95% full at the rally. I asked several people what the capacity of the Music Hall and no was sure. The total number ranges from 2 to 3 thousand. If someone knows the capacity number, then the rest would be easier to figure out.
