Conservatives Say They Will Sue to Stop HealthCare Reform

By GottaLaff

See, this is what I admire about the Rushpublics. They are such optimists, always looking at the bright side, trying to make things work, sharing, giving, reaching out:

While they still believe Congress will not succeed in passing a healthcare reform package shaped the way the president and Democrats want, opponents of government-run healthcare are laying the groundwork for lawsuits to stall and eventually kill any Democratic legislative victory—just in case. A broad group of conservatives has begun to explore how to file such lawsuits, who would file them, and what components of the legislation would be challenged, if not all of it. [...]

Most of the conservatives involved say that the mandate amounts to a tax and that it will be fought on constitutional grounds. [...] Sources say the suits will also be filed in most states and in as many courts as possible to avoid putting all eggs "in just a few baskets."

"America first"? OUT. Frivolous "just in case" lawsuits that Rushpublics have always maintained that they condemn? IN.

Good thing "tort reform" hasn't been voted on yet. They need trial lawyers on their side for just a little while longer.
