This guy is a total jerkoff for pulling parliamentary tricks to block Sen. DeMint amendment to audit the Federal Reserve, but yet the Dems. had earmarks and other legislation in violation in the bill. If he votes no on S.604, then his representatives need to make sure he does not get re-elected.    </content>

Looks like Sen. Ben Nelson has cut a backroom deal, (special favors) to put America's economy in the garbage. Nelson has sold his soul to the devil and we all are going to pay for it. Now America gets to pay the medical expenses for the guy down the street who smokes three packs a day and receives a welfare check. When will America wake up? This administration and the Democrats are destroying the system that has kept America economically stable for 250+ years. Next thing you know, if you don't vote Democrat you will be denied medical attention. Welcome to obama's America! You should be ashamed of yourself, &quot;Senator&quot; Nelson.     </content>

Senator Nelson, despite you saying that the Public Option vote has been shelved due to not having the votes! Sir, millions of Americans want Health Care Reform with a Public Option. You need to get the bill for Public Option on the floor for a vote. You were elected to represent the People of the United States, not Corporate America.

How can you VOTE on something, without reading it through totally?

I find that stupid.  He is not representing us, if he does not read a bill and quantify it.  That is just plain lazy and stupid in my opinion.

Senator Ben Nelson, You my sir is one of the top names with health care &quot;reform&quot;. I hope the smart Nebraska's citizens do everything they can to show how you take a blatant disregard for what America really wants . You will be one of the top Senators that will be known for destroying America. Hard working Americans want reform, but nothing rushed to meet Obama's arbitrarily deadlines. I vote for reducing the time senators are allowed to be office. Remember you are elected and should be working for the people, not your political career or whats left of it.    </content>

Senator Nelson, I have a question for you.  How much did you sell your soul for?  How can you say the majority of Americans want this, when it is very evident that they do NOT want the government to have any say in their health care?  You sir I believe just signed your own pink slip.  Shame on you for turning you back on Americans.    </content>

Sen. Ben Nelson,

I just wanted to send you a note to let you know that I hold YOU personally responsible for Obamacare being signed into law. If you had respected the wishes of your Constituents (67% DIDN'T WANT O-CARE!!!) then the entire country's health care wouldn't be at risk now. You sold yourself out for, well, as it turns out, NOTHING! How does that make ANY sense to you?  It CAN'T. 

I can tell you that every single health care conversation I've heard on TV in past several months have ALL included the words &quot;Cornhusker Kickback&quot;. YOU sir, have embarrassed and ticked-off this entire state (except for the 23% of do-nothing, give-me-a-free-handout, losers who still support you.) No vote u make in the remainder of your career will ever make me forget the backroom bribe u took that set up this entire bill for passage. If u hadn't voted 4 it, the ENTIRE country wouldn't b subjected 2 this disastrous bill now. This is on YOU!  YOU are the ONE that made this happen. (continued)

I have a very, very long memory when it comes to those who attempt to mess with my personal life, not to mention those that steal liberty from me.  And I'm not the only one.  I won't LET anyone I know FORGET the role YOU played in getting Obamacare passed.  I'd love it if you would just RESIGN NOW and, we the people of Nebraska, could stand a chance by electing someone who may actually represent US in the Senate!  Your time is over.  Now we just have to suffer through the remainder of your worthless term in office.  You AND Obama will be leaving office the same day.  Sound good to you?  Sure does to me.

Your CONSTITUENT,

If you are apart of the American unemployed or share the same views as the unemployed and want to have a peaceful march on Washington to show that we do need our unemployment or in support of unemployment, email me at unemploymentmarch@yahoo.com. This has to be done, a peaceful stand needs to take place soon to make a difference. Before a lot of Americans lose the little bit that they do have. We didn't ask for the economy to be this way and it is not our fault that we can not find jobs all at the same time. We worked all of our lives and now that we need help, the people in congress is saying no! We are the ones that help pay for wars, national disasters, and the congressmen paychecks. Now they are telling us that they cannot pass a bill so we can feed and house our families. What is more important the &quot;Oil Spill&quot; or the unemployed and their children. I don't think so, it's time for a peaceful march, email me at unemploymentmarch@yahoo.com, to make a peaceful stand now.    </content>

Senator,
I feel betrayed.  I worked hard all these years and have been a good citizen and paid my taxes.  My employer paid unemployment insurance in case I was laid off.  I have not collected benifits for years.  When the automotive business was bailed out I was put on part-time and then in December I was laid off even though I had more seniority than most of my office workers.  This was not my fault!  I am not looking for a hand out like my neighbors on welfare.  I am looking for help until this world turns itself around.  Please support us so we can get on our feet and once again start contributing back to the good ole USA.      </content>

You are a terrible representative for your state. Voting against the American Workers (UI Extension) was terrible. You do realize these people are putting money BACK into the system. So now you've hurt the small Mom and Pop, Bus drivers, job seekers to get to and from these painful interviews.
 
WHAT IS YOUR PLAN TO HELP THESE PEOPLE NOW!!!! I've been looking for over 8 months now I have two weeks left. I have no idea what I'm going to do. WHAT IS YOUR PLAN FOR US NOW... I'm very eager to know. You're going to cause more disruption and instability. Can I come and live with you until this job &quot;thing&quot; is taken care of?

WHAT IS YOUR PLAN? I really want to see it, cause it needs to take place very quickly (in days, not weeks). email me sedgeneric@yahoo.com

some Democrat you are... worthless.    </content>
