WASHINGTON (AP) -- While the rest of us have to wait until June, the justices of the Supreme Court will know the likely outcome of the historic health care case by the time they go home this weekend.

Can you believe Nine Citizens are deciding the fate of a Nation?

According to this, Kennedy has changed his mind on other decisions at the very last minute. And any of them can change their mind at any point.

Is this a very fast vote? History tells us that if a jury returns with a verdict quickly it usually means guilty. Maybe the dems are guilty of unconstitutionality.

They meet alone in a conference room. Seated at the table according to seniority. They speak in a traditional order with John Roberts speaking first. But you knew that because you read the article ... right? :)

This is the ‘straw’ vote.

And don’t forget this is from the AP.

OJ jury returned their not guilty verdict in 2 hours..Casey Anthony jury came back in I think 8 hours. After the Casey Anthony case I will never again try to figure out what a jury(or judges) will do.

It's even worse - not nine but one - Kennedy (revenge of the Kennedys!)

The Founders didn’t structure all of this to make it easy for tyrants to pull shite like nobamacare. These nine often have revelations or maybe visits from the Founders on Turning Point cases in spite of their political feelings and actually do what’s good for America and her key concept - FREEDOM. When the crux is YOU, your place in history is hard to ignore.

But, this time, there are 2 bona fide Obamaphiles that shouldnt even be there, sitting in on the judgement.

Kagan will be hot-linked to the White House.

From what I understand from the article, this is the vote on which the opinions will be written and exchanged and minds possibly changed. The only lib I see as a possible change is Sotomeyer. Kennedy is a loose cannon imo but ‘sounded’ fair & concerned during the snippets I heard.

You betcha. And if it's good news for them...they won't be able to contain themselves. I'm not so sure they can keep their mouths shut either way...their libs after all.
