Looked like Fancy Pants Nancy was gonna rap-a-tap-tap the ball with her big old (understated) gavel. - Humility on a stick.

Let us not count chickens before they hatch.

You do what you want. Nobody cares.

Elected officials, though, have to at least try to be adult about these things.

[GenXteacher]

Is there any concrete reason this failure is the Speaker of the House?

[txrefugee]

Boehner has no balls to spike. What a wuss.

[kenmcg]

Hey Mr. Speaker, stick your head where the sun don’t shine. If the SC strikes down the commies marxist Obamacare it is a blow for FREEDOM and every American should celebrate including elected pubbies. It’s time to take our country back and I’m sick and tired of pubbies that don’t want to stick it to the RATS.

EVERYONE SHOULD SPIKE THE BALL WHEN THAT DISASTER IS RULED DEAD!

There should be fireworks and parties!!

Killing this monstrous law will save the republic; for a while anyway.

[Ladysmith]

Damn straight! We’re fighting like dogs to save our country and supposed to act like pansies?

PING THE GLOAT-A-METER!

There ought to be a huge “before” and “after” poster of Pelosi.

The “before” shows her strutting around with the giant gavel.
The “after” shows her trying to walk with it shoved in her backside.

If congress has been active in cutting funding and defeating this instead of depending on the states I'd have respect for this useless moron. Give Boehner a box of Kleenex.

[HerrBlucher]

I think Boehner is laughing his ass off at the Prompter Punk.

I doubt that seriously, they are golf buddies. Boner will probably apologize to bambi at the next tee off.

How about celebrating the Constitution. A BIG celebration.

[stephenjohnbanker]

The economy, the national debt, and Communist Healthcare are the 3 things we have to run against Obama with. Boehner never should have brought this up in the first place. We DO need to make a HUGE case out of this to show the people how much of a total failure Obama has been. Boehner, STFU!!!!

[conservativebabe]

Can we PLEASE get rid of this douche in November?

[afraidfortherepublic]

Boehner is right on this. The marginalized will see this as the Republicans taking away their access to healthcare. “Spiking the ball” will backfire on the Reublicans in November if we look like we’re gloating.

[Third Person]

Yeah, O.K., coach.... no spiking the ball.

[Sir Napsalot]

??? This is not satire ???? Boehner is for real?

Think Democrats (esp. that pruneface Pelosi) would do the same vice versa?

[attyatlaw001]

At this point I think I’d be willing to quit my job, move to his district and vote for the Democrat if it would help get rid of this guy...

Please don't. I live in his district and he's still better than his competition.

[Snickering Hound]

How bout a Victory Lap then?
