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!

That crossed the line of protocol, quite ridiculous!!!

That was a low moment for the President of the United States and the Democrats in the Congress. Neophyte, he is arrogant and crass to the Supreme Court, very disrespectful.

It's that community organizer that will always be a part of him - very crass and arrogant. Well, we knew that before he was voted in.

Obama said: "I don't quit" 
The Senate, House, and Congress say "I wish you would."
And the American people say "Amen."

How's he going to do that, since he's never held a job in his life?

Re: State of the Union
So this was his way of saying "Bush screwed us, the Republicans screwed us...everything is their fault, but be glad that you have me for president"

This is the same clown that put on a great show and duped millions into voting for him. It was a speech. BHO is great at giving speeches.
I wasn't moved.

I can. He's arrogant and condescending. He also told us why we were angry, none of which is the reason I'm angry, but whatever.

I looked at the clip a couple times, but didn't see anything. What did Alito do?
