"With all due deference to separation of powers, last week the Supreme Court reversed a century of law that I believe will open the floodgates for special interests - including foreign corporations -to spend without limit in our elections. 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 I'd urge Democrats and Republicans to pass a bill that helps to correct some of these problems."
Never before has a President in a State of the Union address condemned a Supreme Court Ruling. The Supreme Court did not reverse a century of law- they reversed maybe ten years of law- but that's beside my point. The supreme court is the final authority in our Government- Did our President really suggest that a bill be passed to "correct some of these problems"? In front of the nation, with the Justices sitting in the front row? I guess he could try to appeal it- oh wait.
