OK. Chutzpah is a good word. Chutzpah is actively campaigning against a majority party’s candidate while begging for a Senate chairmanship. Chutzpah is threatening to filibuster against the party’s pet bill – a historic bill no less. But chutzpah is one thing. Racism is another. Take it away, Israel’s United States Senator:
