Mostly the federal courts deciding on cases which established precedence where no law existing - effectively creating a law.
Its a big difference. Obama directly addressed the SCOTUS in particular reference to the health care law. Challenging them directly.
Please note, some of the supreme court judges where in attendance at Bush meeting and applauded.

He was talking about the Judicial Branch of Government, referring to Unelected officers serving for life....isn't that the SCOTUS?
and the 3 Justices in attendance were also the 3 that voted with him on the Miltary Tribunal decision the previous year.....so they may have enjoyed the little dig as well.
