Sen. Bernie Sanders is in the middle of a heated Democratic presidential primary, but that didn't stop him from taking a few minutes Tuesday night to rip U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

All of the senators in the race (eight?) should be echoing this over and over. One person should not be able to block the functioning of the entire federal legislature.

I am seriously torn as to which POS I hate more. Even though I'm leaning Biden, I commend Senator Sanders for taking a richly-deserved shot at the KKKentucky asshole!
