  President Obama may be struggling to tilt the balance of the Supreme Court – but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t already made his mark on the bench. The president, over the course of his two terms, has appointed hundreds of justices to the lower federal courts, leading to a majority of appeals courts now dominated by Democratic picks. While those nomination battles aren’t nearly as high-profile as they are for the high court, the impact of the appointments is just as pronounced.   “It's often overlooked, but nominees to the lower courts ... are often one of the most important legacies a president leaves behind,” said Elizabeth Wydra, president of the Constitutional Accountability Center.

A man verbally attacked a mother for publicly breastfeeding her baby inside a Connecticut Target store, and video of the encounter went viral, Fox-61 reported Tuesday. Video of the Monday outburst was posted online by Jessie Maher, who was sitting in the café section of the Torrington, Conn. store, feeding her young child around 11:30 a.m. [embedded content] Before she began filming, a man stared at Maher and called the public breastfeeding “[expletive] disgusting,” Maher wrote on Facebook. “Can’t you do that somewhere else?” the unidentified man angrily asked Maher, she wrote. Maher, of Canton, Conn., said she told the man she had the right to breastfeed her child and that he should walk away. In the video, the man asks a Target employee for a refund after witnessing Maher’s breastfeeding, later accusing the mother of being disrespectful. “Because I’m feeding my baby, this man is going crazy—and I’m shaking,” Maher can be heard saying quietly. Another customer soon comes to Maher’s aid, telling her that feeding her baby is a “beautiful moment.” A line of Target employees later separate Maher from the man. One employee gestures toward the man, apparently asking him to leave. Connecticut law protects women who choose to breastfeed in public. Target corporate policy also allows for breastfeeding in their stores. The video recorded 2.5 million hits as of Tuesday moing. Torrington is located 30 miles west of Hartford.
