Burn up their phone lines again today!

FYI,

I called all three of my reps yesterday: one senator's phone rang until i got a voicemail, which said his mailbox was full and then hung up. The other senator's staff picked up adn took my comments. My representative in congress answered and was polite. When asked, she said that their phones have been ringing non-stop and that all were against the $700 billion bailout.
 
My hubby and I are meeting for lunch and we're going to Senator Levin's Warren, MI office.

If you live near a Congressional field office, take an hour get off the internet and give them a polite piece of your mind in person.

In a wonderful world, we'd be filling up their parking lots.

And this "we" goes beyond the RPF crowd. Every single person who is against the bail out should be showing up to fight.

Not protest. Fight.
 
Just made my calls for today.

Senator John McCain's mailbox was full so I couldn't leave a message :rolleyes:

The guy who answered the phone for Senator Jon Kyl was shocked when I said "Vote no on any version of the financial bailout". He's like what? Any version??? :D

The girl who answered the phone for Congressman Rick Renzi said they have been swamped with calls all day. :cool::cool::cool:

I like the "any version" spin. :D

We should also tell them that we're watching the hearings and are not satisfied with Paulson & Bernanke's justifications.

Good point. They will just spin out a new version to appease some points, and still steal all the power.
 
It was working last night and this morning before I posted it here.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

I will take that to mean that they are getting HAMMERED HAMMERED HAMMERED.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
 
Done again...Senators Enzi and Barrasso, Representative Cubin. Keep calling! We are getting heard!
 
I called Sen. Lugar, Sen. Bayh's voicemail was FULL so I had to email him, also emailed Rep. Souder.

This is important. Just do it.
 
If you guys are getting voice mails, I encourage you to LOOK UP THE LOCAL OFFICE NUMBER and call that.

Seriously - tell them at the LOCAL OFFICE that the folks in DC are not accepting calls and you DEMAND that your voice be heard!

DO NOT LET THEM SHUT YOU OUT!!!

(I am feeling sort of ... menthol patchy. :eek:)
 
Called Senator Burr and politely gave his aide my reasons for opposition. Senator Dole is still ringing off the hook. Called Congressman Price and told his aide that I opposed the bailout and would vote against any representative that voted for it-- he seemed much more interested when I told him that I lived in Price's district.
 
Done.

Congressman Ander Crenshaw (202) 225-2501
Senator Mel Martinez (202) 224-3041
Senator Bill Nelson (202) 224-5274

They all said that they are being flooded with calls.
 
Just called both Senators from Washington State. Cantwell, voice mail, Murray, i got a live one. Told him i was just elected a PCO and the people in my precinct who i have talked to are ready to pick up pitch forks and torches, and i said 3 times, very slowly, that i implore Senator Murray to use her clout to get this proposal deep sixed. No version of this should see the light of day. I repeated myself with deliberate tones, and and gave him a veiled warning about the people out here in the wild west are getting to panic mode, and God help us all if this happens.

More calls latter. I have to calm down first.
 
Texas senators:

coryn voicemail after 1 ring and hutchinson's line is busy.
