Because Bernie cares!

And he's not afraid to call the sonzabitches out for the greedy pigs that they are. Oh the Repubs will wrap themselves in the flag but the good Senator from Vermont will be the one busy working for we the people.

Last year Bernie fighting for our vets:

Senate blocks Dems' bill boosting vets' benefits

"I personally, I have to say this honestly, have a hard time understanding how anyone could vote for tax breaks for billionaires, for millionaires, for large corporations and then say we don't have the resources to protect our veterans," said Sanders, the measure's chief author.

Democrats noted that more than two dozen veterans groups supported the legislation. But Republicans said they still favor helping veterans while also wanting to be prudent about federal spending.

1. I hope others will get the courage to start speaking out against them also. Dems have

not been willing to FIGHT the corruption, or to name names which had they done so a long time ago, we might not be where we are today.

9. Yes, he does.

Democrats noted that more than two dozen veterans groups supported the legislation. But Republicans said they still favor helping veterans while also wanting to be prudent about federal spending.

They sure don't take prudence into account when it comes to funding their phoney wars and the war machine that makes them and their buddies so wealthy.

Fuck the liars that try to smear Bernie Sanders.
