WASHINGTON – The White House has kept its preparations for the Supreme Court’s decision on President Barack Obama’s health care law close to the vest. Mr. Obama, White House press secretary Jay Carney said Wednesday, the West Wing is merely “waiting for an opinion, a decision, and we’ll assess.”

But Mr. Obama has been doing more than sitting back and waiting. The president has three separate speeches prepared in anticipation of the ruling on his signature legislative achievement, a person familiar with them said.

One of the speeches addresses a complete overturn of the law, while another is crafted as if the court strikes down the law’s individual mandate but upholds other provisions. The third speech, for if the court upholds the entire law, is more celebratory, according to this person.

I found a draft copy off an unsecure WH router!

1). Bush's fault!
2) 4 radical Republican honkeys and an uncle Tom on the USSC,

Is this story to give cover to the rumor that the results have already been leaked to the White Crib - possibly via a
‘wise Latina’?

Lies!

Obama does not prepare speeches. He speaks from the heart.

I don’t buy this: Obama has known the decision since the day the Supremes held their secret vote. Remember the Obama meltdown the Saturday after? Maybe this “claim” is just trying to provide some cover for Kegan.

The president has three separate speeches...

Unfortunately, none of the three is a resignation speech.

I'm betting that his pre-planned speeches won't work...because the decision will include a reprimand of both Congress and the President.

He will cancel, get a burger and an ice cream and go golfing.

Hillary will send him a letter of condolence. :-)

Michelle will say it's whitey's fault.

I believe Obammy will be viewing flames and destruction today in Colorado.

Rather interesting coincidence I think.

This way, he can update the D-Day Ike exhibit, and where it says “Eisenhower prepared two press releases, in case....” they can say that the Great Hussein had THREE speeches prepared...
