Baucus, Conrad, Nelson.... these guys MUST be corrupt right?
I mean, let's get right down to it, there is no way they would stand in the way with such force and conviction on an issue like this if they weren't "throwing the game."
As the money pours in, they continue doing their "job" of blocking our progress on healthcare reform.
Now, seriously... can't we just pay them off?
We raised hundreds of millions for the election. Wouldn't you think we could put together a few million to get these assholes to change their position back to the DEMOCRATIC POSITION?
Clearly this is how these dickheads work, so rather than fight the system and lose (like we are doing) we could just all chip in $20 bucks and buy these guys outright like the whores they are.
If the money isn't enough, and they refuse to change, it could be used to help in their primary challenges. It could aid people who would have a change, even if slim, to remove these d-bags from office.
This could extend beyond just this small group of spineless bastards, and extend to the rest of the Dem Senators in the form of a pledge, if a strong public option is passed. i.e. Dick Durbin is going to vote for the public option, but maybe if he knew that there was $1.1 Million out there waiting to be sent to his campaign fund, he might call up Max Baucus and tell him what a pussywhiped spawn of satan he is, and tell him that he better shape up, or he's going to get a wet willy next time the 2 cross paths.
So to those Senators who are standing in way, we know it isn't a question of IF you can be bought, but just how much it will take. So give us a hint, make your first DK post, and tell us: how much $$ will it take to get you to do the right thing? I bet we can make it happen.
