Quote: Blue Dogs threaten to bring down Pelosi’s healthcare bill By Mike Soraghan Posted: 07/15/09 07:36 PM [ET] Centrist Democrats are threatening to oppose their party’s healthcare legislation unless House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) accepts changes that make the bill more to their liking.
Seven Blue Dogs on the House Energy and Commerce Committee have banded together to draft amendments that they’ll co-sponsor in the committee markup, which starts Thursday. Rep. Mike Ross (D-Ark.), the Blue Dogs’ point man on healthcare, says if those changes aren’t accepted, they’ll vote down the bill. [continues... .]

Here's a deal for the Congress.
I'll support any national health plan that has these two structural elements designed to insure that it really is a good deal for all Americans. Neither I nor you can outsmart the congressmen or industry lobbyists writing this monster so let's harness the self-interest of those in power and in industry to everybody's horse. 1. The single national American Health Care plan must REQUIRE the President, Cabinet Members, Congresspersons, federal employees (and retirees) and their families, to participate in it with identical options offered to ordinary citizens. "Equal protection" from injury and disease. It's only FAIR. 2. The single national American Health Care plan must ALLOW everyone -- those with current individual or employer coverage, those switching jobs, those who are self-employed, those who cease working temporarily or permanently, those new to employment, and anyone who wants to -- to freely select and pay for unrestricted private health care insurance through an HSA or otherwise. "Freedom of choice" regarding coverage. It's only FAIR. 3. [Reserved.] We'll see what other "special privileges" need to be extended to ordinary folk. It's a 1000+ page bill only now seeing the light of criticism. As a lawyer, I can guarantee that there are both more "goodies" and "traps" hidden in the bill.
