Why isn't everyone calling their "representatives"--even if they are Tea Party representatives--and letting them know how angry we are?????

This will be the end of the Democratic Party! At least let your Democratic representatives know--even if they are Blue Dogs.

This is serious.

1. I call all the time. It's amazing that
it is so easy to get through. I wonder why I'm the only calling too.

4. The end of the Democratic Party? Really?
May I suggest reading the bill first and learning what is and is not included in the deal? I'm a lifelong Democrat and my party is not ending- I'm even a card carrying liberal, progressive and although the deal is by no means something I am thrilled about- it is not the end of the world as we know it. Chill out and read on please...

5. I just called ten minutes ago & got right through
Please call!

I told my Rep (Cummings) to let the Republicans come up with the vote to pass this mess.Last time the Dems stepped up to the plate to "save the Country" was to pass Tarp to save the banks. The Repubs voted No & then turned it against us in 2010, even though they were the ones who really wanted it passed to save Wall Street.
