HCR: The need for a time-line plan
After listening to the President’s speech today and witnessing “a difference of procedure” between CNN moderator Wolfe Blitzer and Sen. Lamar Alexander, I can immediately see a need for publishing a time-line plan for the HealthCare Reform Bill.
In my opinion, a time-line plan does not have to be date-specific but tracking the bill, even in generalities if necessary, going forward on its way to the President's desk for him to sign. Such a plan would help keep hope alive and momentum going forward. Such a plan does not have to be elaborate. As a matter of fact, it should NOT be elaborate. The reading primer "Dick and Jane" of the 30’s and 40’s comes to mind.
It would be to the detriment of the HealthCare Reform Bill to now let it fly to the whims and nefarious behaviors of obstructionist and naysayers. We all know how influential they can be and with the educational level of large portions of our society, it would not be difficult. That fact has been proven day in and day out for the past year or so.
People need structure, something they can look forward to, something for which to prepare.
Finally, I would think newspaper editors would greatly benefit from such a plan with planning and special hiring assignments and the like. I know I would personally see benefits in such a plan in picking my battles knowing what I am talking and writing about. (Smile)
Fighting for the dignity of my Ancestors,
God bless Bill Gates, WPFW, C-SPAN and the spirits of the unborn for the help,

P.S. As they say, "One good thing about having a plan is you can always change it!"
