John Cusack attacks Democratic senators for absence during Sen. Rand Paul’s filibuster

Now that actor John Cusack has already publicly blasted President Obama for “shredding civil liberties,” he has moved on to attacking Democratic senators — despite that he calls himself a liberal. The actor went to town on his Twitter account during Sen. Rand Paul’s filibuster Wednesday, but instead of attacking Paul and the other Republicans senators filibustering, he pointed fingers at the Democratic senators for staying absent during the entire 13-hour marathon on the Senate floor.

Paul started the filibuster late Wednesday morning to stall the vote on John Brennan’s nomination for director of the Central Intelligence Agency and to discuss the constitutionality of Obama’s drone program.

But the liberal actor seemed less frustrated with the Kentucky senator’s 13-hour “filiblizzard” and more upset that the Democrats weren’t taking part.
