The Supreme Court is expected to rule on the constitutionality of President Barack Obama's health care law within the next week, and House Speaker John Boehner has issued a pre-emptive warning to fellow House Republicans if parts of the law are struck down: Forget about celebrating.
In a memo sent to his entire caucus Friday, Boehner warned members not to gloat over what most Republicans would see as a victory.
"[I]f the Court strikes down all or part of the president's health care law, there will be no spiking of the ball," Boehner wrote in the memo. "Republicans are focused on the economy—and under President Obama's policies, our economy is struggling. We will not celebrate at a time when millions of our fellow Americans remain out of work, the national debt has exceeded the size of our nation's economy, health costs continue to rise, and small businesses are struggling to hire."

It sure is!
If it is struck down, I’ll videotape myself spiking the ball and send it to both Boehner and the White House. It will be an epic inzone dance my friend.

obama just played king and ignored Congress with the Dream Act. If the vote goes against him, what makes anyone believe he will abide by the ruling instead of ignoring it?
I really don’t think any of the justices, even the liberal ones are cowards.
Anyone that can sit in a judge’s seat in a courtroom and pass judgment on cases is definitely not a coward.
I do think they don’t want to make public statements about any of their rulings.
Ginsburg already goofed on that one.
Big relief for you, Johnny, eh?
In light of the disastrous decision by SCOTUS you won’t have to worry about us knuckle-dragging conservatives embarrassing you in the Royal Court, among your fellow elites.
