Justice Alito's Joe Wilson moment

by: Jason Springer

Thu Jan 28, 2010 at 12:00:00 PM EST

The Republicans tried to be on their best behavior last night after Joe Wilson's outburst during a Presidential speech last year. But someone didn't let the all of the Justices in on the "let's be on our best behavior game."

Check out this video as Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito shook his head no, and mouthed "not true," while President Obama criticized the Supreme Court for their recent decision permitting lobbyists and corporations to exert more influence in elections:

Way to make NJ proud Justice Alito. Congressman Anthony Weiner even said after the speech on Olberman, that he expected Alito to jump up and shout "you lie." How hard is it to know that there are cameras on you from every angle? You can say whatever you want as soon as they turn off, but put a smile on your face and act like you can take it. None of Alito's other colleagues had a problem containing themselves. Just because you're a Supreme Court Justice, doesn't mean that people can't question the rulings you hand down.

Will Christie join the "Acorn Pimp" and Joe "You Lie" Wilson at the Morristown Tea Party?

by: Jason Springer

Wed Oct 28, 2009 at 11:00:00 AM EDT

What a star studded lineup in Morristown this weekend as they'll hold yet another tea party:
Rep. Joe Wilson, who gained fame for heckling President Obama with the words "you lie" while Obama spoke about health care to a joint session of Congress last month, will join a rally Sunday in Morristown.
Famous or infamous? Either way, he'll be joined by another fox news icon:
Other speakers at the rally Sunday morning at George Washington's headquarters in Morristown include the "ACORN pimp," James O'Keefe of Westwood. O'Keefe posed as a pimp with a prostitute who visited offices of the community group ACORN with a hidden video camera.
But the question isn't who is attending, but rather who may not be there:
Wilson is expected to speak around 11:30 a.m. before attending a private fund-raiser, Weingarten said. Wilson's office confirmed the visit was planned.

Weingarten said Christie has not agreed to appear "even though he's only going to be half a mile away" on Sunday. Christie's campaign did not immediately respond to a call for comment.

There's a nice contrast. While Democrats hold events with President Obama, the Acorn Pimp and Congressman You Lie will rally the GOP base. And Christie will turn his back on them while they do it, instead attending a private fundraiser under a mile away.
