Cenk makes a good point. Obama wants us to call who exactly? We should be calling Democrats that he
has endorsed. What's the use of calling Republicans? It's not up to them. It's up to Democrats.

2. But he's not calling out the people he should be calling out. I haven't heard him say anything about
Blanche Lincoln.

5. If you have Republican and Democratic reps you should call them both.
One is not better than the other, you just get more headway a lot of the times with the Dems. Secondly. You can have proof that you contacted the Republican ones and they obviously intentionally ignored the calls of their constituents. That's like not voting because you assume that the other guys team is gonna win. You vote to exercise your rights and to get your message across when you vote for what you believe in. I can't see why calling out weighs calling both when the other call is a few seconds of your time.

6. It makes no sense. I recommend the OP just call both his/her reps.
S/he seems adamantly against it.

7. Cenk is getting on my last nerve...So damn negative, goes on and on and on
We like this bill, the President wants us to call our reps. to push them to vote for it...It is that simple.

If you hate the bill then don't call anyone, just bitch and moan all day every mother fucking day!

Next time vote for Palin ar Dennis Kucinich!

10. ITA. If these idiots think there is nothing we can do
then they should STFU and sit back. let the people who care take action. The negative nellies can sit back and watch if they like.
