    JUSTICE SCALIA: You really want us to go through these 2,700 pages?
    (Laughter.)


    JUSTICE SCALIA: And do you really expect the Court to do that? Or do you expect us to give this function to our law clerks?(Laughter.)

    JUSTICE SCALIA: Is this not totally unrealistic? That we’re going to go through this enormous bill item by item and decide each one?

1. How can they rule on it

if they don't know what's in it? Why did they agree to hear the case if it all boils down to 'he said/he said'? Thomas should be disqualified from hearing this case anyway considering his wife's lobby efforts against the law they are considering.

why actually do their jobs? Because In our currnent state of delerious national division; a simple ruling from their "gut" will suffice. And not only suffice, will be gladly and willfully accepted as an "informed ruling" by the right wing.

The Left asks for accoutabilty, the right asks for and usually gets what they want to hear not what is good for the nation.

Judicial review is a thing of the past. Fascism isn't just a boot on your face forever, it's also lazy adhearence to the rule of law which allows mob mentality to be the judge, jury and executioner.

Somethings just leave you speechless.

Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

Oh, the ironic-ness.  Nancy Pelosi said they had to pass the bill so we could all find out what's in it, you big DUmmie.

Didn't the GOP get raked over the coals for refusing unanimous consent on the reading of the bill?
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Kagan should be disqualified because she wrote all the talking points for Verrilli.

And how can Congress vote on it if they don't know what's in it?

The Justices or their aides only need to read the part of the law they are ruling on, they have no need to read any other parts of the law.   Probaably wouldn't even need to read those, since I'm sure it would be covered in the briefs from both sides.

Project we much and much we will!
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

They're only rulin' on the individual mandate ya stoooopid DUmbass! Besides, the DUmbass DemonRats didn't include a severance clause in the final bill!

If they follow the law, and we all know the 4 liberal P'sOS, will ignore it as they always do, they cannot sever a single ****in' thing!

Primitives are stooooopid, they're stooooopid all the time!
I'm the guy your mother warned you about!
