HCR: Doom $ Gloom
I have concluded it is virtually impossible to write anything regarding the HealthCare Reform Bill now looming in Congress going in for mediation or whatever it is called.
Every time I read a writer’s interpretation of some parts of the bill, it is laden with suggestions someone or some group could be going to court regarding its legality. From the jump, I hear there is going to be a court case regarding the state of Nevada getting 100% Medicare funding. Now Constitutional Lawyers all over the U.S. can tap into state’s treasuries to further enrich their law firms with each and every part of the HealthCare Reform Bill they figure they can squeeze a dollar from.
Law suites will go on and on, states will get brooker and brooker, Constitutional Lawyers will ware perpetual $miles into every courtroom in America and Social Workers and their healthcare provider contacts will be all aflutter with twisted britches.
Mr. "Hank" Paulson asked for -demanded?- and got seven hundred billion dollars from our treasury with his request for said amount written on two and one half sheets of paper with no threats of law suites. It is my understanding the HealthCare Bill has over twenty one hundred pages and counting.
When Pres. Obama and Company would not let a group representing the need for a Public Option be seated and heard at the first meeting breaking open plans for the HealthCare Reform Bill, there were some arrests and so the whole procedure started off wrong. I am a firm believer that says if you start off wrong, you will surely end up wrong. I have never seen it to fail! I am mindful of the legitimate delegation of Ms. Fannie Lou Hamer not being seated at a Democratic Convention so many years ago and the kindness of other delegates to yield their seats to them. If I remember correctly, there were also arrests. I am also mindful it was *Republicans who helped pass the 1965 Civil Rights Bill with many a reluctant Democrat voting against it.
The height of cruelty would be to start programs under the HealthCare Reform Bill and having to stop them due to the fact their legitimacy is being challenged in court. “To have loved and lost” is a horrible condition to be in.
As always,

*Voting Rights Act
1965
Few talk about the positive contributions Republicans made in passing the Civil Rights Act under a Democratic President and Congress.
The Senate never had been able to muster enough votes to cut off a filibuster on a Civil Rights Bill. The final count showed 44 Democrats and 27 Republicans voting to close off debate, with 23 Democrats and only 6 Republicans opposed. The formal Senate vote on the bill took place on June 19, 1964. It passed overwhelmingly, 73-27.
In the final house passage of the bill on August 3, 1965, the breakdown was 217 Democrats and 111 Republicans voting in favor versus 54 Southern Democrats and 120 Republicans voting against. The final Senate vote on August 4 was 49 Democrats and 30 Republicans in favor, one Republican and 17 Democrats opposed, Robert Byrd of West Virginia and 16 Southern Democrats. Southern Democrats who voted in favor of the bill on August 4 were Senators Albert A. Gore (who had originally voted against the Voting Rights Act in 1964) and Ross Bass from Tennessee, Mike Monroney and Fred R. Harris from Oklahoma and Ralph W. Yarborough from Texas. [3]
