The Ben Nelson "Cornhusker Kickback" is, in fact, illegal and unconstitutional.
The second the Nelson compromise was announced, I alleged it is unconstitutional for 49 States to pay for Medicaid cost increases for one State.

Nebraska (thanks to sellout Ben Nelson) is excempted from paying additional MediCaid expenses brought on by the Senate Health Care bill. All other 49 states will be forced to pay for new Medi Caid entitlements. Now how the hell is that fair? Equal Protection, no? Federal Law can now apply to only some states? Now how is that constitutional?
And here, I've been lauding Nelson's efforts. What a joke. Total sellout.
