Pelosi: Judge's ruling in health care lawsuit 'astounding'
Yahoo Finance ^ | September 10, 2015 | MATTHEW DALY

House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi said Thursday she is astonished by a judge's ruling that clears the way for a Republican challenge to President Obama's health care law to move ahead.

Pelosi told reporters at her weekly news conference she's confident that Wednesday's ruling by U.S. District Court Judge Rosemary Collyer will be overturned. Collyer said the House can pursue its claim that the Obama administration violated the Constitution when it spent public money not appropriated by Congress.

Republicans hailed the court ruling, and Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said Thursday that "this victory sends a strong message that no one - especially no president - is above being held accountable to the Constitution."

Pelosi called that ruling "astounding" and unprecedented. She says congressional Republicans "have tried 60 ways to repeal the Affordable Care Act and I believe this will be overturned."

The California Democrat says an appeals court "will not want to be an arbiter" in a dispute between the legislative and executive branches.

The only astounding thing is that Pelosi hasn’t been institutionalized.

Pelosi would be astounded by a tic-tac-toe puzzle.

Does Pelosi even know the meaning of the word? Her staffers must’ve wrote that.

someday someone is going to write the book on how much horrible damage Pelosi has inflicted on America (including her doctoring or perjured “certification” of O’s eligibility for office......and her ramrodding Obamacare down America’s throat by not even letting OUR REPRESENTATIVES read the damned bill before she forced them to vote it!!!)

this old b*tch deserves to be retired to a Prison Cell, ASAP!

...

She’s probably right. If necessary, John Roberts will redefine the English language.

So let’s see:
Congress says “you can’t spend money on X.”
Executive Branch spends money on X anyway.
How is this not a problem, Nance?

Saw Pelosi commenting on Hilly a day or so ago ..... she’s looking pretty decrepit.

It sounds like this is just a suit involving the Horrible Care Act, not one that will overturn it.

Finally, what?

This goes to the supreme court where, once again, Roberts upholds Obamacare.

Well, because the president is “right” and congress was “wrong”, that’s the problem!

She has had her face lifted every few years, plus all the botox-her face is so stretched and expressionless it looks like a Halloween mask-and the nerves in her face are probably dead...
