Bernie Sanders sticks it to the man.

In an epic rant totalling 8.5 hours, Vermont senator Bernie Sanders has filibusted his way into the history books and hearts and minds of common people.
Astoundingly foregoing the need to pee, he spoke red-faced, enraged and articulate, about the economic and social insanity of the proposed bill to extend major tax cuts for the mega rich in a bid to prevent it.
In a time of global financial crisis caused by the recklessness of the banks and Wall st. brokers who were bailed out to the tune of $11.6 trillion [which the tax payer and working people will have to pay for], it is definitely a bit rich that the richest .3 of 1% of the worlds wealthiest people should be getting tax breaks.
The cost of these tax breaks will again be shouldered by the people, and it would be health, education and social services that would be cut to fund it.
Bernie Sanders has my deepest respect and admiration for standing up for truth and justice- a shining and rare example of such amid a rotten core of corruption and self-interest.
Major Props..
