FISA PROTECT AT&T ACT. FILIBUSTER!
I Just wanted to say to my fellow DUers you can help me today; I really need it. (866) 675-2008 is the number to Barack Obama's campaign line. Just keep pushing 0 until you get a live person and tell them"
you will support him ardently if he filibuster the Protect AT&T FISA act."
The way you help me is by doing this I will keep what little piece of mind I have left. I still believe we do make a difference but We must do this together.(866) 675-2008
Call it and let me know I am not alone in my belief that someone still has a spine in our party.

Edited on Sun Jun-22-08 02:30 PM by barbtries
"that selection is not recognized" 10 times or so, than, "you have made the maximum number of selections in one call. if you wish to make further selections, please call back. good-bye."

0 isn't the number to push. i'll try again and listen to the bot.

i hate bots.

5. It's not going to happen. His job is to get elected, not to draw fire.
There is probably no chance at all for a fillibuster, maybe some chance to get protest votes that won't have any real effect. :(

6. so i went to his myspace page:
RE: fisa

i can't believe you're supporting such a terrible bill that is so anti-constitution! please stand up for the people's rights and oppose and/or filibuster this bill. don't let it pass! withdraw your support for it!

and get on board with impeachment! the gw administration should be stopped before they do any more damage. i hope when you're president you will pursue the proper criminal charges against all of the thugs currently in the administration and those who have slunk away in disgrace over the past several years.

thank you,
a voting constituent lifelong democrat who has voted for you once and will vote for you again.
