You have all these constitutional battles beginning to take shape. Not only around mandate but around the bribes to states contained in the bills. The 2009 bills are all dead. Nothing happened in 2009. By the time the 2010 versions shape up in February and onward every chowderhead in office or running for office will be running either a platform of repeal or to amend. You cant turn back reform but all the core elements are certainly subject to amendment.

This will go on for for the rest of our lives. Just as in Canada and the UK. Always something being amended with the national health system. Can pass or not pass anything next month or in three months. Then what gets amended in the months after that? And so it goes.

Here is how the election campaigns are going to go "I voted for the bill with the medicare cuts in it but I have introduced an amendment to restore them" or "I voted for the bill with mandates because we need health reform but I have introduced a bill to make purchase voluntary because I believe mandates are unconstitutional, and oh by the way, so far most of the other house members have signed on for that and we expect more after the elections."

That should help make it all clear as to who won and who didn't - or not.

Change you can believe in.

Hatch, Shurtleff: Is health care reform bill unconstitutional? - Salt Lake Tribune

As a reference, Medicaid is not federally mandated - states can choose to participate.

Yup. You want your 950 million in state highway funds this year or do you want to pass that state seat belt law because participating in fed highway funding programs is not mandatory? Same kind of choice shaping up for health programs. How bout that state law against text messaging while driving. Coming right up.

Change you can believe in.

Don't know yet. Talk is big and Obama is still the biggest talker. Both the republicans and liberterians have some pithy things to say but nothing organized to go with it, yet. Can't keep dusting Ron Paul off and holding him up like a cardboard cut-out. Need to have some candidates somewhere along the line. Let's all run out and buy Palin's book and make her a celebrity. Yeh, that will help.

Congress is going to take a hit though in the fall and Obama is going to find them hard to work with unlike the lovefest to date. Actually, the health bill shows that the love fest is past its prime even though the dems are still going to be pink. Only thing you can do is remove as many as you can. Obama was elected and we are going to go all the way down the fiscal tubes.
