I am ashamed to be a Democrat after viewing the State of the Union address. I can fully understand the Democratic members of Congress not applauding the president’s remarks. What I don't agree with is their not acknowledging the “heroes" the president singled out. I saw Sen. Jack Reed slumped in his seat at one point when others were applauding.
Are these people that petty?
I think these politicians take a hypocritical oath.
