E. Benjamin Nelson (the E. stands for "Earmark") in his infinite wisdom and concern contributed the following quote this week...
“I’d just as soon see that set aside until we work through the economy,” said Sen. Ben Nelson (D-Neb.). “What we don’t want to do is have anything get in the way of working to resolve the problems with the economy.”
Now he's worried about the economy...after selling out the majority of his constituents and the nation to ObamaCare? Nope...entirely different subject that will only add another nail in the coffin of our Republic's fiscal collapse.
Don't worry Ben...despite how pathetic the NEGOP field of contenders will be...you won't have to worry much longer...Nebraskans plan to turn you out to pasture in 2012. "Anything Is Better Than Ben." will be the NEGOP mantra.
Still waiting for Governor Dave Heineman's formal letter demanding E. Ben return the Medicaid Judas Money to Harry Reid. It ain't gonna happen folks...turns out Heineman is one of the "vocalists" in the Titanic Band.

Heiney may be a lot of things, but politically naive isn't one of them. Nelson made the mess, and, in spite of his valiant efforts to drag Guv Dave into it, he is gonna have to clean it up hizownself. No way is the Guv gonna get involved ... and I don't blame him; I'm kinda enjoying watching E. Ben twisting slowly, slowly in the sun.
Unc...
In light of the current budgetary SNAFU at all levels of govt and the economy...you are damned if you do and damned if you don't. It does make political sense to sit back and let Nelson hang himself with his own rope. I would at least like to see Heineman grow a pair and call Ol' Earmark's bluff.
Happy New Year to you and yours Unc!
Heineman is in bed with all of them. It is easy to say from the highest mountain, "I'm agin it!!!" But, while Tiny Man is patting himself on the back, the other hand is picking my pocket. Remember Gov. Dave and the NSEA?
The most savvy, cold, and toughest politician this state has ever had is living in the Gov's Mansion in Lincoln. He sprays himself with teflon spray every morning so s-it don't stick.
I'm glad this year is over. Happy New Year!!!!
The above is from the Pip. Don't let the bastards get you down!!!
Pip...
They haven't made it to my door yet. I'm thinking of giving it all up and becoming a welfare recipient...no work...no worry. That my friend is Shangri La.
I was goofing you...I have too much pride...and Catholic guilt to allow that.
Happy New Year to you and yours as well and may 2010 be a great hunting and fishing year for you.
