Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu Speaks to Session of Congres...

All I can say is... I thought this was one excellent speech, and I agree with him on every issue.

CBS News will present a special town hall on the economy with Republican leaders hosted by CBS News’ “Face the Nation” anchor Bob Schieffer and “The Early Show” co-anchor Erica Hill.

The town hall, conducted before a live audience at the Newseum in Washington, D.C., on June 13, is scheduled to air during the 7 to 8 a.m. hour of “The Early Show” on June 14, according to a news release.

Senators Tom Coburn of Oklahoma and Jeff Sessions of Alabama, along with Representatives Paul Ryan of Wisconsin and Allen West of Florida and Gov. Nikki Haley of South Carolina, will address economic issues with Rebecca Jarvis, CBS News Business and Economics Correspondent, facilitating questions from a nationwide online audience through a special partnership with YouTube.

Excerpts from the June 13 event will also be broadcast later that evening at 5:30 p.m. on the CBC Evening News with Scott Pelley.

The CBS News polling division will be helping CBS News journalists assemble and solicit questions from the audience at the Newseum; although anyone with access to YouTube will be able to ask questions and interact live during the event as well.

The complete unedited event will be streamed on www.YouTube.com/cbsnews and on www.cbsnews.com.

Allen West Nation - A Lasting Impression

Many times over many decades, leaders of foreign nations have addressed a joint session of the United States Congress. In most cases, such events have been soft sell, low key, mostly unimpactful experiences.

This time…it was different.

This time, it was Netanyahu.

In the wake of a widely criticized speech by President Obama just days earlier, within hours of the arrival of Netanyahu as Obama’s guest, the Prime Minister of Israel delivered an address, not to our congress but to the world.

To say the Prime Minister was warmly received would be an understatement as he was interrupted no less than 55 times by applause and standing ovations and yes, by a lone voice of dissent, which Netanyahu quickly responded to in a most gracious and dare I say, American values sort of way. The Prime Minister remarked how wonderful it was, whether in this country or his, such voices in protest were allowed due to the freedoms we both enjoy.

Bravo.
