When a filibuster is in progress - those who are FOR those tax cuts
needs to stay in the chamber and listen. Filibustering on an empty chamber isn't helping.

The R's and the D's who's supporting these crap needs to sit down, listen up and listen to the stories.

Chain 'em if you have to. Do it Clockwork Orange style.

1. He's in the chamber? I figured they put him in a closet.
That's how its done, isn't it?

2. I agree...
I've been trying to call my rethug to ask if he is in the chamber and if not, to suggest that he get in there and listen.

Got the automated message - they've probably turned the ringers off.

3. I agree! That is the least of the respect Sanders deserves!

4. And those who agree with Bernie should be there on the Floor helping him out!
Kind of pisses me off he's doing this all alone.

Mary Landrieu, of all people, helped him out earlier, even though she said she wasn't sure how she was going to ultimately vote on this.

5. Bernie is now repeating it. I turned it on about an hour in, and he just started...
...repeating the beginning about 20 min ago.

:thumbsup:

6. Wish I could watch it, with captioning...
But my son has the boob tube and Sesame Street is on for him.
