THE SPEECH – AT 8:43 A.M. ET:  The prime minister of Israel makes his controversial speech to Congress today.  The number of Democrats who plan to boycott the address has now ballooned to almost 60, and includes Elizabeth Warren.

It is absolutely disgraceful.  Whether one agrees or disagrees with Bibi Netanyahu, his country is one of America's closest allies, and the only nation in the Mideast that shares our culture and values.  The walkout by the spineless Dems is clearly the work of the White House, in conjunction with the Congressional Black Caucus, which has led the rudeness.

I truly believe that this walkout symbolizes the end of the Democratic Party as we once knew it.  The party of Roosevelt, Truman, and Kennedy is gone.  Now we have the party of George McGovern, Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama, a party built upon the blind worship of the current president.  Imagine:  the prime minister has come, by invitation of the speaker of the House, to address some of the most critical issues of our time, and almost 60 members will refuse to hear him, serving instead the greater glory of Barack.  The little town councilman from Chicago has once again shown his pettiness. 

As for the 60, many come from safe Dem districts or states, so they probably won't be punished.  But they deserve to be shamed.
