14. Part of the current rules and those rats don't want to be
seen with their fangs out.

Methinks Bernie wants to be heard. Go Bernie!

17. Because Sanders doesn't have 40 votes backing him, I think
it's symbolic, because if 60 Senators vote to cut short debate, it won't matter that Sanders (or Sherrod Brown, who's talking to support him) still want to talk.

Truly.

9. "25-30% CC interest rates are usury. Yet government lends these huge institutions at 1-2% so they..

11. Comparing the growth of China's infrastructure to our stagnation.
Makes me want to cry. Everyone knows Bernie is right, we need, we must, re-invest in ourselves.

15. Bernie's an American hero. Please email or call his office and let them know
how much we appreciate an American Senator who is not in the pocket of Wall Street and who works for the American people, not the multinational corporations.

20. Elected Democrats take notice - this is what yall should be doing! This is what
yall should look like. Are the Dems really so corrupt that the only real representative we have is Bernie Sanders? Maybe Al Franken will take over and give him a break at some point. C-Span says he's been doing this since 10:25am. And this will be on the record - it's on national cable - I hope people pay attention. He's doing such a good job I'm just in awe. :wow:
