Seven-year-old playground war

Roberty Gibbs continues the White House’s rather childishly-enacted attack on the Supreme Court. Chief Justice Roberts was right to criticize the way President Obama singled out the Court during the State of the Union. The action was not unconstitutional; it was not illegal. But it was in bad taste to subject the Court to a standing ovation against it in a setting where it had no chance to defend itself. If he is upset about the tone of those opposing Health Care, he could set a better counter-example than that.
