“Tinkered with? It was pwned. That’s why Feingold is acting up.”

Sorry...left off the sarc...

Bastard dems. Anything that a normal person does is inappropriate to them.
Whatever a dem does is perfectly OK, and they go to great lengths to forgive and forget anything a dem does, including racism, lies and crimes.

[Lily4Jesus]

You got that right!!!!

[lacrew]

I think Obama OWES the SCOTUS an apology!

Call them out and have 400 people around them stand up and clap in derision?

Stay classy ‘O.

[khnyny]

Hey Obama:

YOU LIE!

[Ladysmith]

Is this asshole's seat in play?

Yes Sir, it is! I so cannot wait to vote against him!

Feingold is just mad that his own legislation, McCain/Feingold ie Campaign Finance Reform, was ruled un-Constitutional and, in opinion, called un-American by Justice Kennedy.

President Wrong on Citizens United Case [Bradley A. Smith]

Tonight the president engaged in demogoguery of the worst kind, when he claimed that last week's Supreme Court decision in Citizens United v. FEC, "open[ed] the floodgates for special interests — including foreign corporations — to spend without limit in our elections. Well I don't think American elections should be bankrolled by America's most powerful interests, or worse, by foreign entities."

The president's statement is false.

The Court held that 2 U.S.C. Section 441a, which prohibits all corporate political spending, is unconstitutional. Foreign nationals, specifically defined to include foreign corporations, are prohibiting from making "a contribution or donation of money or ather thing of value, or to make an express or implied promise to make a contribution or donation, in connection with a Federal, State or local election" under 2 U.S.C. Section 441e, which was not at issue in the case. Foreign corporations are also prohibited, under 2 U.S.C. 441e, from making any contribution or donation to any committee of any political party, and they prohibited from making any "expenditure, independent expenditure, or disbursement for an electioneering communication."

This is either blithering ignorance of the law or demagoguery of the worst kind.

Feingold is the clown that took the azz-whipping from the Supreme Court, yyou have to be expecting him to look for some sort of cheap petty revenge, and this is the best he could do.

What a “little” man he is.

[ALPAPilot]

Apparently, he thinks he gets to make the law

Congress shall make no law . . . abridging the freedom of speech

He just agrees that you don't get to make the law: you loser.

Feingold was losing to Newman back in 98 until the large liberal county votes (acorn produced) came in and pulled it out for him at the last hour.

[LucyJo]

Yes, and scolding about things that were “not true” was even worse.

[wmposh]

Alito knew he was lying when Obama said that foreign governments could influence elections. That is misleading and misdirecting the public into a false choice HIM or our Republic

[Salvation]

Obortion O was wrong to say anything at all about the Surpreme Court.

He needs to apologize for overstepping.

[Venturer]

I look at this picture and I ask myself : Is Ginsberg really catatonic?

[My Favorite Headache]

These people have real balls lemme tell you. The President broke protocol with calling them out to begin with in the SOTU address.

Eat it Feingold.

[Norman Bates]

Interesting. Has Tommy Thompson declared yet?

[Cheap_Hessian]

No. He is being like Brett Favre.

[shield]

Oh good grief...now who was out of line at the SOTU speech? That impostor giving the speech.

[DCPatriot]

"Apparently, he thinks he gets to make the law. He should maintain his judicial demeanor, and that was inappropriate."

LOL! Hey Feingold....WTF does 'Supreme' Court mean to you?
