And Bernie keeps yammering. Who's up for a Barney Frank filibuster!!!!!!! /sarc

Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT)...

Seriously ... why isn’t it (S-VT)? He acknowledges, as does everyone, that he is a socialist. Is there a law against a socialist in the Constitution or something? I know that they don’t let such small things matter anymore in the Congress, but there has to be some reason he doesn’t officially change his party affiliation.

Coincidence he graduated from the University of Chicago in 1964 - and is a socialist. What’s up with Chicago? That means he was there when the anti-American crowd was really getting fired up.

I thought the longest was by Jimmy Stewart in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.

Sanders 8 hours Saturday?

Did the Senate change the rules?

Frist and Daschle (IIRC) had that deal where they could filibuster for 2 hours at a time.

[I hope that ‘serial’ filibuster rule is GONE. It was silly.]

I’m a bit surprised they had the decency to correctly identify Strom Thurmond as the Democrat he was at the time of his filibuster.
