Re: State of the Union

I can't believe he criticized the Supreme Court Justices in front of the nation like he did.

"Last week, the Supreme Court reversed a century of law to open the floodgates for special interests - including foreign corporations - to spend without limit in our elections," Obama said. "Well I don't think American elections should be bankrolled by America's most powerful interests, or worse, by foreign entities. They should be decided by the American people, and that's why I'm urging Democrats and Republicans to pass a bill that helps to right this wrong."

He forgets that it did leave in place the prohibition on corporate donations directly to candidates and on the ability of corporations to coordinate their activities with candidates.

Thus, Justice Alito pulls a Joe Wilson. Loved that!
