they're NOT going to attend Bibi's speech should take their seats early.........and just before Bibi comes out to deliver his speech, they should get up and go for a bathroom break and NOT return......just hang out in another office and watch it on the tube....any thoughts of a staffer sitting down and occupying a member's seat and not knowing if they're going to return would be insane......

Case closed!
