1. I called. The staffer said he's voting yes on cloture, but will forward my

request to abstain from voting. CALL HIM. What an ASS!

4. Called.

He asked me what county I was calling from, and I told him that I was from Illinois. No reaction, just thanked me.

what a frigging idiot...he thinks there is no support...I told him it's idiotic to vote no to confirm and yes for cloture. And, it'll be the last vote he casts that will count for anything...

8. Yes, I know.....

I live in NM and I've called his office 3x's today.
Each time I get more upset! His staffer just told me
that he thinks a filibuster will fail and that the
senate should get on with other business!!!??

I told her that I belong to the DNC and actively
campaigned for John Kerry and Gen. Clark, but if
he does NOT vote to filibuster Alito then I will
NOT support him and I would consider him a traitor
in the Democratic Party!!

My blood is really boiling!!
:grr: :grr: :grr:

7. Hello. My name is Warpy. I'm a resident of Albuquerque

and a registered Democrat. If Sen Bingaman votes for cloture, I will be working for his opponent in the next election.

Think that got the point across?

That old maid in pants has been showing a few signs of life lately. If he caves on this, he's worthless.

10. Share this when you call

From capitalnews.org:

Will a filibuster of the Alito nomination help or hurt the Democrats?
Help 62%
Hurt 38%

9. Just got through. Excellent staff person. Just keep calling, NO CLOTURE,

I had to speed dial more than 20 times to get through -- that's good. Keep the pressure on.

Peace.
