Stand up, Bernie Sanders is passing.

[asdjrocky]

Thank you Sir.

[Lifelong Protester]

1. You bet, I did.

A great huge thank you to Senator Sanders.

[gateley]

2. I missed the end of it - just turned to CSpan and he's gone. Was he applauded?

Man, I'm exhausted FOR him.

[asdjrocky]

4. I heard none.

Except that in my house.

Shame, shame on every Senator who did not stand with him.

[gateley]

11. Shame is right. And I've been posting this all day and will again - thanks go to

Mary Landrieu for her appearance there. I e-mailed her to express our gratitude.

[aquart]

17. Me, too.

[KoKo]

26. I just checked out C-Span II on Internet...and he's on! Link:

Maybe he took a bathroom break and that's why it seemed he was "gone."

[ThomWV]

3. You're damned right - stand and salute!

[Individualist]

Hear, hear!

[jannyk]

5. Standing and applauding wildly! k&r

6. I've been glued to C-SPAN for the last five hours

I regret not hearing it from the start.

Senator Sanders gave me a little hope today.

[xiamiam]

7. me too..nt

[ThomWV]

8. I flipped over right at the end of Washington Journal and caught it from the beginning

Had to go out to buy new batteries for the truck, but other than that I've been glued to the TV all day. I've called my Senators and e-mailed all my friends to tell them to at least watch and listen.

[asdjrocky]

10. 8+ hours of truth.

Seriously, when was the last time you saw that on Cspan. Or anywhere on TV for that matter.

[dana_b]

9. excellent!

wish I could have but I'm glad that I got to hear some of it.

[asdjrocky]

12. I wasn't able to see it all.

Ran some errands, came back home and Bernie was still going at it. Amazing. I'm on truth overload.

[Goldstein1984]

13. Just called Senator Mark Begich, asking him to follow Senator Sanders' lead

[asdjrocky]

14. I did the same with Boxer.

Don't even bother with Di-Fi any more.

[laughingliberal]

30. Called Reid and Ensign. Said there was no way I was supporting the 'deal' & I stood with Sanders. nt

[Goldstein1984]

32. It looks like Mark Begich is one of eight Democratic senators

who signed a letter opposing the Obama-GOP bill and offering an alternative extending the tax cuts for those who make less than $1 million per year.

I don't know if there's enough opposition to stop Obama and his fellow neocons, but I hope there is.

Regardless, Obama is a lame duck president as far as I'm concerned. If the Democratic party decides to stick with Obama in 2012, then they can have him. I'm done with him.

[laughingliberal]

33. I hope more Senators join those 8. nt

[KoKo]

24. C-Scan II will have it on this weekend or on their website probably to re-hear.

He's up now:
