The nominee I want defeated THE MOST is...
Alberto Gonzales for US Attorney General.

Other Bush appointees will be lousy, too, but US Attorney General is a powerful position.

I don't want a torturer in that position.

Senators should not confirm Alberto Gonzales.

If you have a Democratic Senator, please ask him or her to filibuster against the appointment of Alberto Gonzales.

On a weekday...

Dial 1-800-839-5276 (Capitol Hill Switchboard), ask to be transferred to the office of your Democratic Senator, and leave a message requesting that the Senator filibuster against Alberto Gonzales.

1. Hi, Eric.
I have written email letters to the entire Senate, except the handful of new ones whose webforms aren't up yet, asking them to oppose Dubya's nomination of a pro-torture attorney for the nation's highest justice post.

3. I agree with you
but the gossip in DC is he'll definitely be confirmed. I don't think there's any doubt at this point. SUCKS, huh?

4. If one Senator filibusters, then he won't be.
Let's keep calling and writing.
