“There was, however, one part of the president’s 70-minute speech that is deserving of serious opprobrium; and this has nothing to do with partisanship. In a truly unprecedented display of incivility, Obama in his speech explicitly criticized a particular, recent decision by the Supreme Court of the United States, and then called on the Congress to pass legislation overturning the decision. He did this with the nine justices of the Court sitting directly in front of him. [...] This unpresidential display of rudeness far exceeds in infamy last year’s outburst of ‘you lie’ made by one Republican congressman during a less-weighty address to a joint House-Senate audience. Obama’s remarks Wednesday night were hardly a spontaneous outburst in response to something that happened during the state of the union. The words were deliberately and with premeditation inserted into the speech by Obama’s speech writers; done obviously with his approval. He knew exactly what he was doing. [...] In asking the Congress ‘to right this wrong’ of the ruling by the Court, Obama displayed further ignorance of that about which he was speaking. The fact is, the case last week specifically overturned an Act of the Congress that had taken away the long-recognized rights of corporations to express themselves and their shareholders under the First Amendment. If Congress were to heed the president’s call, it would be deliberately passing legislation that already had been declared unconstitutional! Clearly, the absurdity of such an argument didn’t stand in the way of a president all-too-eager to score political points wherever he can — even at the expense of deliberately trying to demean the one institution in our country that should remain outside the arena in which such attacks are so often made these days. President Obama should know this, and it is disappointing in the extreme that he appears not to.”
— Bob Barr, January 28, 2010 (Atlanta Journal-Constitution)

The Obama, Himself quite sensitive to perceived slights from others, saw fit to berate the Supreme Court of the United States during His State of the Union address in front of both chambers of the Congress of the United States. All this by a supposed legal scholar, no less, and the perfidious preface, "With all due deference to separation of powers". Reprehensible.

Where is the liberal-left outrage now, I wonder.

I wouldn't worry about the "really good" thing either.
