Lieberman Assures Democrats He’s Likely to Support Health Bill
Sen. Joe Lieberman (ID-Conn.) privately assured President Barack Obama
and members of the Senate Democratic Conference on Tuesday that he
would likely support the chamber’s health care reform bill when it
comes to a vote.
He said it ...
Obama said his congressional allies were "on the precipice" of a
historic accomplishment that has eluded presidents and lawmakers for
generations, adding the emerging bill includes "all the criteria that I
laid out" in a speech to a joint session of Congress earlier in the
year.
Of course, even without a new government-run insurance plan, the Reid bill is a policy monstrosity.
It’s filled to the brim with mandates, fines, and new federal controls
which will erode the quality of American medicine and lead to
government-driven rationing of care. It’s a governmental takeover by
regulation and bureaucracy, not program enrollment.

Nelson's demand that taxpayer money not be used to fund abortion has still not been met.
As our source put it, this is a "naked effort by Rahm Emanuel and the White House to extort Nelson's vote." They are "threatening to close a base vital to national security for what?" asked the Senate staffer.
