 Jake Tapper: I'm ashamed by U.S. leaders' absence in Paris

CNN   . . . "It is no small thing for the king of Jordan, a direct descendent of the Prophet Mohammed, to march in a rally prompted by the murders of people who mocked Islam as well as of innocent Jews - all of whom were killed by Islamic extremists.

"The United States, which considers itself to be the most important nation in the world, was not represented in this march - arguably one of the most important public demonstrations in Europe in the last generation - except by U.S. Ambassador Jane Hartley, who may have been a few rows back. I didn't see her. Even Russia sent Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

  "I say this as an American - not as a journalist, not as a representative of CNN - but as an American: I was ashamed." . . .
