TALK TO AMERICA'S RABBI! RELIGION/CULTURE ANALYST: Rabbi Aryeh Spero, known worldwide as America's Rabbi, is a Middle East observer and political analyst. Spero is president of Caucus for America and author of Push Back: Reclaiming Our American Judeo-Christian Ethos. "Angry at the government shutdown and peeved over attempts to stifle anti-Israeli boycotts, Senate Democrats on Tuesday filibustered a bill that would have strengthened U.S. relationships in the Middle East while punishing the anti-Israel boycott movement. Some Republicans said the vote smacked of anti-Semitism, but Democrats said the GOP showed skewed priorities in pushing a foreign policy bill at a time when hundreds of thousands of federal workers are on furlough. The bill fell three votes shy of the 60 needed to overcome a filibuster, with just four Democrats joining the GOP. Republicans made clear they aren’t giving up, with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell signaling more votes in the days ahead to try to break the filibuster."
