Who's calling their GOP Sen. tomorrow about the "nuclear option"???
As suggested in an emailing I got from...some group.

Anyway, it's a good idea and I've got Domenici's number ready to call.

Talk is that the Repugs will try to do the nuclear option soon, maybe this week, as soon as they get back to DC....

3. My Senators are Dems....Durbin and Obama!
:loveya:

The Democrats are prepared to shut down the Government over this. This should be an interesting week, politically. I hope this is what the Democrats have been working on for the last 2 weeks while the repukes have been foaming at the mouth over Schiavo. I hope their plan of action is a winner. We can't afford to lose this one. :(

6. Hmmm. I suspect we have the same two senators.
I called Hatch's office. Made my pitch to an obnoxious woman but it was wearing, very very wearing.

7. Still call them to offset the calls from the rabid right
Just tell them you feel the filibuster is important and we should keep it.

And sign the petition please

11. I signed the petition. It would be refreshing to see
the party of the working man (democratic) grow some testicles.

12. Half of me wants them to try it...
...it will really make them look like extremists. All the Dems have to do is say "We let 95% of the judges though. Do you really want the 10 most extreme judges in the country making decisions for you?"

It will backfire on the GOP.
