Obama Criticizes Supreme Court - Where's the Outrage Now?

A few years ago, there were a few controversial cases (Terri Schiavo, for example) whereby Republicans criticized members of the judiciary. The outcry was immediate from the Left, calling them unpatriotic Americans who threatened the safety of judges.

Well, now Obama criticizes the Supreme Court in a television address to the nation and no one says a word...except for the Left, who cheered wildly at the criticism.

My mistake - Justice Alito did appear to say a few words to Obama as he criticized the decision to protect the Constitution's freedom of speech when it comes from an entity other than a labor union or George Soros foundation.
