Sen. Mary Landrieu holds off on taking health care stand, while pressing for aid for Louisiana WASHINGTON (Nov. 20) -- Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La., remained mum Thursday on whether she will deliver a crucial vote Saturday night to enable the Senate to debate health-care reform when it returns from the Thanksgiving holiday. But Landrieu has already succeeded in adding a provision to the 2,074-page Senate version of the health care bill unveiled this week that would provide Louisiana between $100 million and $300 million in Medicaid funding in fiscal 2011. "Look," said [Louisiana secretary of health and hospitals] Alan Levine, who has been lobbying the administration and Congress on the FMAP issue for eight months, "it's good to have a senator in a position to be able to make demands like that."

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

Posted on Saturday, November 21, 2009 6:49:14 AM by The Wizard

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.

Reminds me of an old joke:

An old man at the bar walks up to a pretty young thing and says, “will you sleep with me for a $100,000? The young thing thinks about it for a few minutes and then says, “sure”. The old man than says, “well how about for $10”. To that the sweet young thing says, “hey, what kind of girl do you think I am.” “Dear we’ve already established that, now we’re just haggling over price.”

Apparently the Senator’s price has been found.

This painting serves to remind us that the current occupant of the White House and the US Congress have forsaken God and have disgraced this nation with their treason and corruption.

We The People will be cleaning the sewer that is the US Congress come 2010 and 2012 when these in-your-face corrupt politicians are sent packing. May their names go down in history to reflect their treason.

There was never any mystery here. This was all settled privately ahead of time. There is a show going on for the masses.

None of them, except perhaps Blanche will lose their job over this.

I just sent Landrieu an e-mai lon her website ( not that she will read it) but stated that the taxpayers of this state will be voting her out over this horrible bill. I wish now I had mentioned that she had accepted a bribe.
