Senate Democrats Reach Deal On Health Care

Health Care Overhaul

Democratic officials say Sen. Ben Nelson intends to support health care legislation backed by President Barack Obama, giving the measure a 60th and decisive vote.

These officials say the Nebraska Democrat will make an announcement later Saturday. Marathon negotiations with the White House and Senate Democratic leaders produced fresh concessions that will mean additional abortion restrictions in the legislation.

The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because Nelson hadn’t announced his decision.

Word of Nelson’s decision came as Democratic leader Harry Reid of Nevada unveiled a final series of revisions to the health care bill, and Republicans dug in to prevent its passage for as long as possible.

    these STUPID GREEDY SELFISH GUTLESS ASSHOLES should be expecting to ALL- and i mean EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM- should be looking for NEW JOBS since they dont qualify to be in the US HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES!!!
    those SORRY IGNORANT MOTHERF**KING SONOFAB***HING JACKOFFS should see if they can get a job working in CHINA where i am certain they would fit right in getting rid of not only American rights but HUMAN RIGHTS as well!!!!
    congressmen and senators should be put on a boat and dumped in the ARTIC since most of them dont support GLOBAL WARMING legislation and they should be fed to the POLAR BEARS so they can learn what it is to go hungry and without work for years on end!!!
