President’s Verbal Jab At Court Is Questioned (cid:77)(cid:87)(cid:105)(cid:94)(cid:95)(cid:100)(cid:93)(cid:106)(cid:101)(cid:100) Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito did not like hearing President Obama publicly criticize the high court’s ruling removing corporate campaign spending limits — and he did not try to hide it. Alito made a dismissive face, shook his head repeatedly and appeared to mouth the words “not true” or possibly “simply not true” when Obama assailed the decision Wednesday night in his State of the Union address. White House deputy press sec- retary Bill Burton on Thursday defended the president’s state- ment. “One of the great things about our democracy is that powerful members of the government at high levels can disagree in public and private,” Burton told reporters traveling with Obama to Florida. “This is one of those cases.” Vice President Joe Biden also sided with Obama, calling the rul- ing “dead wrong” and saying “we have to correct it.” “The president didn’t question the integrity of the court. He ques- tioned the judgment of it,” Biden said. LAURIE KELLMAN (AP) 6 | EXPRESS | 01.29.2010 | FRIDAY ©2010 D.C.
