Like you've got something better to watch for a few days in March?

We didn’t get to see how the legislation was made, maybe we’ll get to see it dismantled.

So leftwing commentators can skew the proceedings?

I don’t think so.

This would degrade the court’s stature, turning it into an OJ trial.

The actual thinking of the judges is behind closed doors.

Is the fix in already?

Will the decision become an Obama Poster just before election? If Obama wins, I'd say that's a reasonable guess. Just add pillars!!

The article does not mention WHO is pushing for this, aside from former Senator Arlen Specter.

I have always found it a good rule of thumb that if Arlen is for it, I’m against it.

If the Dems are pushing for this it is only to use in some campaign ads about the Eeeeeeevil Right Wing SCOTUS that is taking away health care from poor people.

“A Senate Judiciary subcommittee debated Tuesday whether Congress should or — even could — force the Supreme Court, a co-equal branch of government, to allow cameras to broadcast live during arguments.”

I guess the Supreme court will have to decide this case first.

This is nothing but grnadstanding in an attempt to politicize the whole thing in anticipation of the SCOTUS overturning the whole law.

Thay want to be able to spin and use the media to demonize the whole proceeding and use as an election tool. “Look what the evil conservative wing of the Court is doing to the poor, old and young!!!! Re-elect us so we can fix this INJUSTICE!!!”

Scumsucking gutter trash leeches!

All SCOTUS oral arguments should be televised, not just the Obamacare one.

I can't believe some here are so afraid of government transparency.

I can watch many of my state's Supreme Court arguments on TV. It hasn't degraded the court or turned it into a circus. Those are extremely weak arguments.

I just do not see Chief Justice Roberts agreeing to the wishes of the Senate.

The GOP ought to be harping on the fact Obamacare pushed through at midnight to “save His Presidency”

And most didn’t even know what was in it

And the most salient fact—Obama promised hearings and debates and coverage by CSPAN and transparency

He LIED
