Lowest of Lows

When we're talking about Congress, identifying a low point is problematic. But in terms of public displays, nothing is lower than its marathon ass-kissing session the other day with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and, by implication, the Israel lobby. Simply disgusting.

The next time you hear a member of Congress (with one or two obvious exceptions) talk about freedom, justice, self-determination, and democracy, remember that scene. Palestinians need not apply.
