Landrieu's Vote Will Reveal her integrity (or lack of):

WASHINGTON -- Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's health care bill has millions of dollars to help Louisiana finance Medicaid at a time when he is hoping that state's wavering Democratic senator will support overhaul legislation.

The bill provides at least $100 million for Louisiana in extra funds for Medicaid, the state-federal health program for the poor.

Louisiana's Democratic senator, Mary Landrieu, has said she is undecided about the Democratic health care package. Reid needs the votes of all 60 Democratic senators for the Senate debate to begin.

Wizard,

I agree completely with you. I wonder if we all file a complaint with the FBI office in Washington DC, if they will do an investigation. Harry Reid, Mary Landrieu and Ben Nelson all need to be arrested for conspiracy to commit bribery, bribery and other charges.

We know Mary Landrieu is a whore, and now we know her price...

...$100,000,000.

***Let’s At Least Call It What It Is: BRIBERY***
Stardate: 0911.21

We may have to put up with a congress that has some prostitutes, but let’s at least call it what it is: Bribery.....

I remember the old days when regular folks went to jail for such things on the radio: play my record I’ll build you a pool....get caught and get fired....

But today we even practice reciprocal bribery: I give you 100 million, you throw me a fund raiser....my, my how we have grown.....

And the real sweetner in this is that these criminals use OUR money to do the bribing......Bowow and Peeelosi bribe the house and Bowow and Reid bribe the senate.....with OUR money to vote AGAINST what we want....

And they wonder if Madame President is good enough or smart enough to be a part of that......I’m amazed she cares enough about WE THE PEOPLE that she would even bother...

At least with a Whore you are getting something you want......with these people you are getting something you don’t want shoved down your throats and paid for with your own money.....

Some in Congress give prostitution a bad name, and I appologize to the hard working women in the “adult services” field for any slight I might suggest by placing some congress people on the same level....they clearly don’t raise that high. “

Irish Eyes: It is OUR money that he is using for his bribe to Landrieu.

Cheerio: There is something horribly wrong with our Congress when they can use our tax funds to BUY votes to pass bills that the majority of tax payers do NOT WANT.

Are you paying your taxes? If there is something horribly wrong...? If sewage was pouring from your kitchen faucet, depravity from your cable tv, explosive gas from your kitchen range, wouldn't you shut them off?

Instead, all too many are sitting around saying, "Just you wait, sewage! I've got me a stash of antibiotic!...You'll get yours, degenerates, when you come for my daughter I've got a pit bull here!...Make my day, blow the house up, I got a real big firehose I'm hankering to try out!"

So...are you still paying taxes?

As much as I can manage has been invested in Munis for the very purpose of denying the man-child his ill gotten gains.
