Alright, Who will filibuster the $700 billion bailout???

Is there at least one member of the US Senate who has the Guts to Stand up to Fascism in America?

"So far, even though there are a handful of disgruntled conservatives who are unhappy with a major government intervention, nobody is predicting a filibuster when this legislation hits the Senate. Furthermore, senators in both parties warned Friday that the alternative was grim."

Okay, the Life cereal pun wasn't as funny as I had hoped,

BUT...

He's a master filibusterer. He would be perfect for it.

He's the only one I've seen that has proposed a 10% surtax on the rich to help pay for the bailout. He needs to raise that to about 30% so they pay the whole thing but at least it's a start. Couldn't hurt to contact him. Maybe if he hears from enough people, he'll filibuster.

My Letter -

Dear Senator Bernie Sanders,

Horrid fascism is at the door step of every American home right now. We, the People of the United States of America are under attack by the insatiable greed of corporate elitists. Our elected representatives no longer preserve, protect, or defend our constitution. Our President no longer respects or enforces our laws. If this blank check bill is passed, there will be no turning back... we will forfeit all of our rights: to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We will no longer be a nation deriving it's just powers from the consent of the governed but a nation dictated by criminal corporate masters. Please, Senator Sanders, Filibuster this madness and stop the destruction of our nation before it is too late.

Liberty or Death,

I sent one too but didn't do a text grab before I sent it. Suffice it to say I used significantly different language than I do whenever I contact Senator Norm Coleperson. ;)

Senator Russ Feingold and Senator Robert C. Byrd. Are there any other US Senators (R or D) that would be receptive to a Filibuster?

I don't believe the House has passed any bailout legislation yet. How can the Senate vote on it?
