Senator Bunning is a hero, all bills should be treated this way.

What Bunning is doing is merely objecting to a unanimous consent request. The Democrats could very easily vote on the pending matter instead of trying to get 100% of the vote. But they don't want their vote to be recorded unless it is 100% unanimous.

And isn't it funny. The Democrats are trying to get 100 votes in the Senate to agree to extend unemployment benefits while also complaining that they have to get 60 votes to pass health care.

Bunning is not filibustering, he is merely objecting to a unanimous consent request. The State run MSM has it all wrong. It's a Democrat rule.
