Sen. Bernie Sanders 'Filibusters' Tax Cut Deal : It's All Politics : NPR: "If you want to see an old-style Senate filibuster, check out C-SPAN.org.
Sen. Bernie Sanders, the Vermont independent who conferences with Senate Democrats, launched a filibuster at 10:30 a.m. Friday against President Obama's tax cut compromise with congressional Republicans. He shows no sign of letting up. He has vowed to go as long as he can.
He's getting occasional help from other senators. Democrats Sherrod Brown of Ohio and Mary Landrieux of Louisiana have come to the floor to assist him. He also has a Twitter feed going where you can follow along."
