Democrat Rep. Joe Sestak Admits Deal for Ben Nelson's Vote was "A Disgrace" - Video 1/7/10

Here is video of Democrat Rep. Joe Sestak saying in an interview with the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review that he thought the deal Democrats made with Nebraska Sen. Ben Nelson for his Health Care vote was "a disgrace."

Sestak said bluntly that the Democrats have been less than open in their dealings:


"At times, I find the caucus is a real disappointment. We aren't transparent, not just to the public but at times to the members . . . . "
You have to give Rep. Sestak credit for being honest in these comments. What they have done in ramming through the Health Care Bill with backroom deals is a "disgrace," and they have conducted themselves in a shameful way, hiding their deliberations from the American people. . . . . (VIDEO)

If they arent even honest with their own party members why do these SOB’s vote with them?

Why don’t they get together and shed themselves of one of the biggest crooks on the Hill ,Nancy Pelosi.

Only because the rats were caught was this a bad idea. If the public had not found ouot about it, everything would have been peachy in Dumbocrap land.

Sestak is a Dem running for Specter’s seat here in PA.

IOW, he’s just saying what he thinks will help get himself elected.

ALL leftists are liars by genetic design. Never ever believe any of them.

Only Republicans berate their own for no personal gains. This DemocRAT must be running for some political office to be mouthing off his own fellow travelers.
