House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said Tuesday she’s predicting a six-to-three Supreme Court ruling in favor of President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul.
“I have confidence that if we’re talking about the law of the land and our compliance with it that we will be OK,” Pelosi said during a private event at the Paley Center for Media in New York.
“Right now there are over 80 million people who are benefiting from the bill,” the California Democrat added. “We can’t roll that back, so we have to find a way to keep it.”

Could even be Ginsburg who decides, at age 80, that this "young whipper snapper" needs to understand he doesn't RULE.
Barky is pushing the envelope and it's about to push back.
That’s quite a leap. Passing an unconstitutional law doesn’t get you blind folded and shot. It gets you voted out of office (see 2010 results) and the Supreme Court making you look even more foolish.
I think this is a CYA move. She knows its been leaked and by doing this she distances herself from the leak.
I predict that most Americans will commute to work in personal flying cars by 1970.
Indeed. Just wondering what the source she had in mind was? If any? Such a fruit loop...
Pelosi then admitted to freebasing a huge pile of cocaine and immediately proceeded to literally climb the freaking wall.
I wonder if it is an impeachable offense to pre-maturely leak information from the Supreme Court.
Of course, that implies that an impeachable act would actually lead to an impeachment. It wouldn’t.
Yeah, I’d like to see that.
Let’s say it’s 5-4 or 6-3 against bozocare right now.
oBozo comes out and waves his ego around.
Ginsberg thinks - it’s going down anyway, and this punk is waaaay too big for his skinnybritches. She throws in and makes the decision so lopsided as to be a smackdown.
8. The war in Libya with no authorization by Congress, and when they didn’t agree he decided to go against his legal advisors anyway (Constitutional Lawyer that he is NOT).
9. Fast and Furious illegal gun running.
10. Bringing a lawsuit against AZ through the UN.
11. Holding an office in the UN at that same time he is President.
12. Defense of Marriage act.
13. His association with the Muslim Brotherhood and other terrorist organizations.
14. Leaks to Hollywood of vital information regarding raid on bin Laden.
15. Failure to protect our citizens on the border from INVADERS that he and is ILK have RENAMED as ILLEGAL ALIENS.
16. Campaigning from the White House is illegal.
17. Appointed over 30 Czars who do not report to anyone else but Chairman Obamkov.
18. Has promised Russia after his re-election he will further dismantle the US Military.
19. Has repeatedly and openly proclaimed that the Constitution that he IS SWORN TO PROTECT is outdated and needs to be changed.
These are all acts of TREASON.
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.
The Congress shall have power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted
“or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort”
That to me shows she knows it lost. Right now, she hopes to get certain Supremes to CHANGE their vote, or the dems will fight this out in the media, who, of course, relish carrying dem water.
Appointing “Czars” is giving aid and comfort to enemies of these United States?
It seems that either you didn't know the definition of treason going in, or are willing to stretch the definition beyond all recognition in order to justify your position.
You stretch the definition of treason the way liberals stretched the definition of “commerce between the States”, beyond all recognition and to cover whatever you want it to cover.
Loony about covers it.
Good luck with that.
Items 26 and 40 address your obsession.
Communist Goals (1963) Congressional Record—Appendix, pp. A34-A35 January 10, 1963
1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.
2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.
3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.
4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.
7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.
8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.
9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.
10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.
11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)
12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.
13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.
14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
18. Gain control of all student newspapers.
19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.
20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.
21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.
22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.”
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a “religious crutch.”
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the “common man.”
31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the “big picture.” Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture—education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.
36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.
37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.
38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].
39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.
42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use [”]united force[”] to solve economic, political or social problems.
43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.
45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction [over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction] over nations and individuals alike.
Like I said - your view of treason is like a liberals view of the commerce clause - it means whatever you want it to mean and covers whatever you want it to cover.
Good luck with that LooneyToon.
Pelosi MO: say what she wishes were true, say it as established fact, ignore it & move on when proven otherwise. Leaves opposition falling over themselves trying to reconcile facts & consequences, while she’s moved on to other things.
A rather successful tactic...
So any politician who votes for or supports a law that makes divorce easier would ALSO be guilty of treason for giving aid and comfort to enemies of these United States?
Loony!!!!
They are facts, not an opinion.
They are the reality not an emotional reaction ending with ridicule.
I’m not bending the facts in any shape, form or manner. Our government has been infiltrated by Communists, they have been at it for over sixty years. Look at the list. Think about it. Use your skills of analytical reason, and the only logical conclusion is as I contend.
Facts are the edge of Occam’s razor. Sometimes a razor leaves cuts, sorry, I don’t make this stuff up.
