Curious as to what Pelosi will say 

  • comment(22)

Do you remember the exchange between then Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and Matt Cover, a reporter for CNS News, on the issue of the individual mandate?  Here’s the transcript: 

Matt Cover: “Madam Speaker, where specifically does the Constitution grant Congress the authority to enact an individual health insurance mandate?

Pelosi: “Are you serious? Are you serious?"

Cover: “Yes, yes I am."

According to Newsbusters Pelosi then shook her head before taking a question from another reporter. Her press spokesman, Nadeam Elshami, then told CNSNews.com that asking the speaker of the House where the Constitution authorized Congress to mandated that individual Americans buy health insurance as not a "serious question."
 
“You can put this on the record,” said Elshami. “That is not a serious question. That is not a serious question.”

Now you may be wondering what Pelosi will say if the Court overturns the mandate.  Trust me, she will absolutely reject the ruling as anything other than judicial activism … probably paid for by the Koch brothers.   Pelosi has no respect whatsoever for the Constitution – and in that regard she’s not unlike most of the big-government, power hungry Democrat politicians who grovel before her.
