Alito's 'You Lie!' moment

Glenn Greenwald explains why this video of Alito, shaking his head and saying "not true" to President Obama, during the State of the Union, matters:

On a night when both tradition and the Court's role dictate that he sit silent and inexpressive, he instead turned himself into a partisan sideshow -- a conservative Republican judge departing from protocol to openly criticize a Democratic President -- with Republicans predictably defending him and Democrats doing the opposite. Alito is now a political (rather than judicial) hero to Republicans and a political enemy of Democrats, which is exactly the role a Supreme Court Justice should not occupy.

Alito, a teabagger ... who knew?
