55. I recognize the irony.

But your 'outrage' should be reserved for Eric Holder for being in France and not attending the rally and "white hot rage" for Netanyahu for attending the rally. I guess this is sarcasm, except I have seen it. You can find threads for both "outrages." Wanna guess which one produced MORE threads?
