1. His supporters explanation

is to just post a link to his last filibuster.

[Cha]

2. Wonder what BS' excuse is?

[Chevy]

5. Whoever is working

his twitter feed is clueless.

[NurseJackie]

25. That's pretty much all they have.

[Koinos]

3. There are lots of flights to DC. He could take any one of them and join his "colleagues."

DC is much closer than the Vatican.

[Cha]

7. Excellent point, Koinos.. BS can fly to the Vatican in search of The Pope.. but, he

can't make it to D.C. to help out our Dems Filibustering for Common Sense Gun Laws?!

Thank you!

[BobbyDrake]

19. And have to fly coach again? Teh horror!

Jane has grown accustomed to a certain lifestyle now. They have to cling to it as long as possible by not conceding.

[SaschaHM]

4. The primary is over. He is still a sitting senator.

He needs to be in DC working regardless. Any amendment will need as many votes as it can get.

[NYC Liberal]

8. And he's getting PAID.

He lost and now it's time for him to go back to the job he's being paid to do.

[eastwestdem]

11. Exactly!! nt

[Cha]

10. How ironic that he's not there helping the Democratic Senators filibustering for Common

Sense Gun Laws.

He needs to do this job.. he's a sitting senator

Thank you, Sascha~

[sheshe2]

6. Sanders sits while the Dems lift.

Revolution my ass!

[Cha]

12. Our Senate Dems are working so hard, she.. They're reading our messages and inspired!

brawaaaa I just read we don't get to Dare criticize BS because he filibustered in 2010.. uh huh.

[BlueMTexpat]

14. One filibuster in 2010

does not = a filibuster in 2016.

Another instance where the math doesn't hold up.

[Cha]

15. I know.. BS isn't helping NOW when & where he's needed. Also read

".. he put out a statement on assault rifles.." Like that's going to help our beautiful Dems.

I edited my OP on Elizabeth Warren's Tweet and added that about BS and his 2010 filibuster and his "statement".

He's sitting back taking cheap pot shots @ our Dems while they're doing the heavy lifting.

Thank you, BlueMT~

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

16. B.S. was just in D.C. on Tuesday. He couldn't stay in the city long enough to help the filibuster?

Full of shit, just like all of us thought.

[Cha]

23. According to his fans.. he filibustered in 2010.. and he made a statement.. that

seems to be enough for them.

I expect more.. Why isn't is in the Senate doing the job he's paid to do.. right Now?

Mahalo, Liberal_Stalwart~

[Demsrule86]

28. It was against an Obama brokered deal

One to keep government running and deal with the debt ceiling. It was not a real filibuster either...according to the papers.

[Cha]

30. Yeah, I read it was "fake" but how dare we question BS now on why he

isn't helping our Dems with This Filibuster!

We have a German Shepherd very over protective of us....

I have a friend whose German Shepard was named Shadow.

21. What's important to Bernie is: Bernie and his one

track mind. He would be a horrid President! Thankfully it won't happen. He must be hell to work with as he knows no other subject than his personal agenda.

[Cha]

35. Mind boggling how somebody doesn't tell him to stop thinking about himself for 2 seconds..

Here's who a true Dem hero is..

Chris Murphy

15 hrs on the floor. 2 hrs of sleep. And I'm back on my (tired) feet, ready to keep pressing Congress to end its silence on gun violence.

36. Hi Cha! I watched the filibuster for hours! So proud of our Democratic Senators. They

were passionate, eloquent and sincere. How can anyone diss our Democratic Party so much as Sanders? We are made up of the best people.

[Cha]

39. Yes, We Are! He's doing for his own personal delusional vendetta.. no rhyme for reason.

You watched history!

44. These are our leaders who Bernie Sanders has tarred with "Establishment"....

in other words "U.S. Senators who have friends and are liked by others at work".

[liberal N proud]

26. All Bernie Sanders has done is trash the Democrats

And they are going to let him set the agenda for the convention? What a croc!

I really don't see how they would let him do that, liberal N proud.

[Demsrule86]

32. Sanders is caught in a bubble. nt

[Demsrule86]

31. I called the regular number for both Ohio Senators

The mailbox is full for the free number. You can google the phone numbers for all Senators.

[Demsrule86]

29. I can' get through

Sen Brown's mailbox is full.

34. lol who cares at this point

If I'm legally able to donate to political campaigns in 2018 (can't due to my current job) I'm sending 27 dollars EVERY MONTH to Al G to get the Wannabe out of politics forever.

Gonna call both my Senators tonight.

[Blue Idaho]

38. The Explanation Is Simple...

He's no Democrat - never has been, never will be.

[Cha]

48. Well it's a damn shame he couldn't get himself to DC and do his job.
