6. Cornyn and Huchison have never
been moved by my comments. There is no reason to believe they would listen now but I will give them my 2 cents worth.

12. I called and left a message with a staffer.
She said she would pass along the message,,, probably to the trash can. Our Congress has failed us people. We need to be doing more than calling these failures. I dream of a time when we will collectively stand against the utter shit that is being pulled against us. For starters; What if we organized a "no-phone day"? Millions of people turn their cell-phone off in protest of this "Retroactive Immunity" bullshit. Do you think that anyone would get the message? Better yet, millions of people simply cancel their service. Now THAT would send the message that no matter what this asshole in the Whitehouse does, we refuse to have our constitutional rights violated by him or any willing participants. But alas, we are too fucking stupid and complacent. They have won. This is yet another dark, shitty day in the U.S.

14. They DO get the messages!! Really, they do! I'm glad you called but
It isn't just about cellphones! It's about ALL your communications!!

E-mails, phone calls (Land & Cell); internet tracking, text messages, IM's, etc, etc.

is ALL being collected without a warrant!! :grr:

You have TWO senators! Did you call the other one? :shrug:

17. Good job!!
My Senators staff says the same thing and they told me they keep a tally of all the
pro and con phone calls they get about a bill and then they give that to the Senator. ;)

19. Problem is, I see "Call Recorded" for one but not the other.
I'm wondering if the site takes some time to update?

Today is a VERY sad day in America. I will call, but I don't think it will do any good. Pelosi and the whole lot of them are worthless. I don't know how they sleep at night.

18. They sleep like the capitulating traitors they are...
Hopefully, that asshole Pelosi will be out on her ass soon. I've had it with that mealy-mouthed, deer-in-the-headlights suckass. What a useless squeaker she has proven to be.

23. Yup, she's a worthless
idiot. We should all be out in the streets demanding more from our Congress. I don't understand how this could be happening.

24. It's happening because we are trapped by our mortgages
and credit cards, and outrageous fuel costs. They've got us in a position to lose everything we have if we protest, or raise hell. That's exactly where they want us.

25. The lack of oversight, regulation,
and all out criminal behavior of our government has definitely got the American people by the throat.
