Why do the put an I after his name? - he is a socialist that caucuses with the democrats, making him either a democrat or a socialist or both.
Go Bernie Go
Go Sanders! I hope he succeeds is sinking this spending bill. When the Republicans take over next year, they can put a tax bill on the table that actually cuts taxes. One that doesn’t increase spending.
So the Socialists are the Party of NO now?
When will Barry the Boy Prez denounce such tactics from extremist politicians?!!
Excellent!
If Dems stop this and largest tax increase in history is imposed, so be it. The blame goes 100% for dems (and to Obama for failing to deal with his party).
Next year GOP has more seats and is in better position to push even better tax deal.
In anyway, filibuster and shutting down work in Senate is great news. Hope it continues for weeks. Remember to keep sending supporting notes and calls to Bernie!
I agree with Rush and Hugh Hewitt that it might be better to scrap any bill that comes out of this Lame Duck Congress.
As the ‘Bush tax cut’ bill progresses through the congressional sausage-making process, it more and more resembles a pork sandwich. The addition overnight of an extension of the ethanol write off leads me to believe that the post-January Congress would do a better and less costly job of extending the Bush tax cuts.
Obama can’t win for losing. What a spectacle!
All that “hope and change” euphoria of 2008 seems like ancient history now.
They’re so cute when they throw their little tantrums, aren’t they?
Isn’t this actually better? The new Republicans come in and get it passed after the new year. Then the cuts are attributed to the Republicans, rather than the old dem regime. Plays better in the 2012 elections.
The “Democrats” now remaining in Congress are straight up marxists and members of the marxist “Congressional Progressive Caucus”
The right needs to institute a policy of ZERO TOLERANCE FOR MARXISTS IN CONGRESS.
CPC members need to be hunted down like the degenerate communist animals they are and jailed for subversion and grand theft.
Letting these people walk around as if they are ordinary Americans is a serious mistake, they are robbing the productive class via the legislative process.
They want to steal more of our money, let them do it the old fashioned way, at gunpoint.
Hey, I admire him for standing for what he believes in. Too bad nobody on our side was willing to do this to stop Obamacare!
You would think we would have some "conservatives" in the Senate who would have tried to kill the health care bill this way.
Hehe Make my day.
THERE IS NOT TAX CUT....IT'S THE CONTINUATION OF EXISTING RATES, and the REPUBLICANS MUST GET THAT MESSAGE OUT!
Bernie Sanders is a Vermont cow full of bull.
I hope this socialist piece of crap drops dead at his podium.
DylanRatigan What they don't want you understand about taxes in USA: http://bit.ly/g5qAlg @senatorsanders #taxes
I don’t understand why socialists aren’t summarily rounded up and either locked away or deported. Didn’t we spend all of WWII trying to defeat them? To hell with bernie sanders, he’s an enemy of America.
Isn’t Bernie a millionaire? As a Socialist, shouldn’t he be donating his riches to the state?
