Sen. Ben Nelson (D-Nebraska) has bravely dug his feet in on the current healthcare debate in the Senate over the issue of taxpayer funded abortions. His is a critical vote that the Obama administration needs in order to get the monstrosity of healthcare "reform" passed.
So, in the way of buying votes such as they used with Mary Landrieu (D-Louisiana), what goodies are the Obama folks holding out to Sen. Nelson?
Nothing of the sort! For Sen. Nelson, Nebraska, and the country, the Obama Administration is threatening to close a Strategic Air Base. Offutt Base is the home base of the US Strategic Command.
Offutt also provides some 10,000 jobs for Nebraskans. If Nelson stands his ground, will Offutt really go on the base closing list? Is the Obama administration really stupid enough to follow through on such a threat? Will the military let them do it? Would we the people really let them do it?
This looks like a darn good time to call the Obama bluff and let's see their cards.
