Bob Kerrey Told Ben Nelson To Vote For ObamaCare
During his tumultuous tenure at the New School in Greenwich Village, liberal New York Democrat Bob Kerrey phoned his buddy Senator Ben Nelson and instructed him to vote for President Barack Obama’s $1.76 trillion healthcare bill. According to Kerrey’s hometown newspaper, he personally spoke with Ben Nelson and convinced him to support the bill and Nelson proceeded to make a backroom deal – commonly known as the Cornhusker Kickback – with Senate Democrat Leader Harry Reid. As The New York Times reports: Kerrey Spoke To Ben Nelson About Health Care Reform Days Before The Vote. “To help divine Mr. Nelson’s thinking, a wide array of Democrats have reached out to him in recent days, including former Senators Tom Daschle of South Dakota and Bob Kerrey of Nebraska. In the calls, Mr. Nelson has not disclosed how he is leaning, but his friends say they can sense the pressure he is…
Rep. Berkley Puts The Interests Of An Extreme Environmental Group Ahead Of Creating Jobs In Lyon County
Last week, embattled Congresswoman Shelley Berkley who once was a co-sponsor of legislation that would transfer federal land in Lyon County to create jobs in Northern Nevada, sided with a radical environmental group and voted against the Yerington Land Conveyance and Sustainable Development Act. This legislation would enable the City of Yerington and Nevada Copper to develop over 10,000 acres of land for the Nevada Copper Pumpkin Hollow project and it would yield nearly 800 new jobs. Over three-quarters of the Silver State is owned by the federal government, yet when the far-left League of Conservation Voters told Berkley to oppose the legislation – because it would privatize public land – she quickly obliged. A bundle of 14 proposals that included transferring federal land to Yerington easily passed the U.S. House on Tuesday, giving a spark to Lyon County where the unemployment rate stands at 15.1 percent. The proposed land…
Bob Kerrey Tells Nebraskans That He Would Have Voted For ObamaCare
While he was testing the waters for his upcoming candidacy, liberal New York Democrat Bob Kerrey said that he would’ve voted for President Barack Obama’s intrusive, job-killing healthcare bill. A healthcare bill that cut $500 billion from Medicare, raised taxes on small businesses by $500 billion, recognized abortion as a federal benefit and forced every Nebraskan to purchase health insurance. As WLKN-TV reports: Notably, Kerrey once said the longer he lives in Greenwich Village, the more liberal he gets on government-run healthcare. “Liberal New York Democrat Bob Kerrey doubled-down on ObamaCare when he recently admitted that he still supports this intrusive, job-killing law,” said National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) Jahan Wilcox. “It’s just another reminder that in Washington, Bob Kerrey will be a key ally in advancing President Barack Obama’s liberal agenda.”
Heinrich Warned The Democrat Brass About The Medical Device Tax, Yet Pelosi Still Got Him To Vote Yes On ObamaCare
Further Proof That Heinrich Knew The Healthcare Bill Would Kill Jobs In New Mexico When liberal Congressman Martin Heinrich voted for Nancy Pelosi’s government-run healthcare bill, he knew it cut Medicare by over $500 billion, but now it’s been discovered that Heinrich also realized the medical device tax – that partially financed the legislation would thwart innovation and job growth in New Mexico. Martin Heinrich penned a letter to then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her liberal lieutenants that the medical device tax in ObamaCare would kill jobs in New Mexico, yet remarkably he still followed Pelosi’s order and voted for the bill. REP. MARTIN HEINRICH: “I am concerned that the [medical device] tax included in the Senate legislation would impede innovation, limit access to life-saving medical technology, and lead to job losses in the medical device industry. I am particularly concerned about the impact this tax would have on a facility…
McCaskill: The Senate HAS Passed a Budget
McCaskill either in fantasyland or deliberately misleading Missouri voters This weekend Senator Claire McCaskill tried to convince the Quincy Journal that, unbeknownst to the rest of America, the United States Senate had in fact passed a budget. Watch this short video and witness how with such ease Sen. McCaskill can spin this falsehood. SENATE PASSED A BUDGET? It’s interesting that McCaskill would claim a budget has been passed when Politifact recently rated the statement that Democrats hadn’t passed a budget in more than 1,000 days as “true.” Further, even DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz in April didn’t deny that the Senate hadn’t passed a budget, telling Fox News’ Brett Baier to “please ask” Harry Reid about the process. As recently as May, Democrat Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia told Politico, “Sure I have a problem with [failing to offer a budget]. As a former governor, my responsibility was to…
