Video: Impassioned Rubio Tears into Obama Over Israel Hostility


Stop what you're doing, take 15 minutes, and watch the speech Marco Rubio delivered on the Senate floor last evening.  I know Greg posted the raw clip last night, but this needs amplification. I pried myself away from the NCAA tourney to watch it live on C-SPAN, and it was worth every minute of it.  Responding to the Obama administration's extraordinary

The Obama administration is showing off its radical, petulant stripes and isolating itself in Washington. I'll leave you with Smart Power's public assessment of the UN's despicable treatment of Israel just a few short weeks ago.
