In the case of Barack Obama v. Supreme Court of the United States, that was some oral argument on Wednesday night. With the Justices arrayed a few feet in front of him in the House chamber, President Obama blistered their recent decision defending free political speech for corporations and unions. As Democrats in Congress and Cabinet members rose and applauded around them, the Justices sat stern-faced, save for Samuel Alito, who was seen shaking his head and mouthing the words "Not true."

I have a dream. Picture this.....Justice Alito writing the majority opinion when they rule Obama to be in-eligible to be POTUS because of his (non)citizenship.

LOL! What a picture that would be.

He comes from low class. He would not know how to apologize.

Obama, and the rest of the elitist left, do not understand the separation of powers with the three branches of this republic.

Funny, I was just trying to think of something they might TRULY understand, and absolutely nothing comes to mind. They live entirely in FantasyLand.

Maybe it's late and my eyes ain't seeing too well, but I saw Justice Alito say “No way, not true”. Anybody else?

The SOTU was proof positive that the POtuS is a complete and utter fraud. Constitutional Lawyer? Not. Economics genius? Not. Populist? Not. Insane? Absolutely.

I surely hope you are right and the American voting public has awakened. I hope it is true that only 20% of our countrymen are this lunatic left fringe that wants the same as The One.

LAST PART OF THIS OP-ED WAS HILARIOUS:

‘His use of “foreign” was a conscious attempt to inflame public and Congressional opinion against the Court. Coming from a President who fancies himself a citizen of the world, and who has gone so far as foreswear American exceptionalism, this leap into talk-show nativism is certainly illuminating. What will they think of that one in the cafes of Berlin?...’

It’s really classless Barry versus the U.S. Constitution; his punk-ass shout-out to the U.S. Supreme Court was one of the lowest presidential moments in history.
