FORGET Emailing Lieberman - EMAIL THE REST OF YOUR SENATORS
email EVERY Dem Senator you have and tell THEM to pressure Lieberman NOT to run! tell them to OPENLY and PUBLICLY pressure Lieberman to step aside.

MASSIVE letter campaign to ALL DEM SENATORS will help stop this. DEMAND they PUBLICLY stand up for the PEOPLE of Connecticut!

1. I think I'll email Lieberman and ask him to please stay loyal to
Democrats even if he is going to run as an Independent.

10. STAY loyal?????
He never has been loyal to the Democratic party. LIEberman is a repuke in Dems clothing.....always has been,always will be. Just look at all the repukes sticking up for him. That puts the icing on the cake...when you have repukes supporting a "Dem" candidate,it's a fact that candidate is a PHONEY and a real repuke! JOE.......GO HOME and quit being a SORELOSERMAN!!!!!!!!!!


Now that he is pissed off for being tossed,he will no doubt work his ass off to get Lamont defeated in November. He is an evil revengeful person who cares about NO ONE but himself. He is as disgusting as that piece of shit pRESIDENT he worships so much. They both need to just GO AWAY.

24. He lost the primary!
The loyal option, the dignified option, the respectable option is to accept the will of your Party and support the winner. He obviously has no respect for the Democratic Party or the voters, and since you apparently support him, neither do you!

5. simple e form to mail your representatives about this

Tell Our Democratic Officeholders To ONLY Support Ned Lamont

CALL YOUR MEMBERS OF CONGRESS TOLL-FREE AT 888-355-3588 OR 800-828-0498

ACTION PAGE: http://www.usalone.com/wright/pnum440.php (Democrats only)

The greatest thing that could have happened did tonight, Ned Lamont beat Joe the "BUSH" Lieberman in Connecticut. The people of CT spoke out for real policy change. And now this nation sees there is a future for all Democrats and this nation in November. The fact: Americans are waking up. Support Ned Lamont and every Democrat you know.

When he first threatened to disregard the result of his own party's primary, Lieberman said that he could justify it because the turnout would be low. Instead there was record turnout in CT last night. But Joe still refuses to get it.

Worse yet, in his non-concession speech he essentially accused any Democrat who would not support him of being guilty of "petty partisanship". What exactly is running for the nomination of a particular party supposed to be if not partisan? What is the point of seeking a party's nomination if you will not honor the decision of your constituents?

Lieberman cannot now continue to run as an "independent Democrat", an unlawful construction of words which he repeated again. He can run as NO Democrat at all in CT in 2006. And now is finally the time for all Democratic office holders everywhere to declare that they will support ONLY the winner of the Democratic party primary in CT, Ned Lamont.

ACTION PAGE: http://www.usalone.com/wright/pnum440.php (Democrats only)

This alert is brought to you through the activism of James Wright, running for the U.S. House in the 8th Congressional district, and one of the leading progressive voices in the state of Texas. Follow the other links on the action page for Jim's own proposals of bills to REALLY protect us.

When a brave candidate steps forward in such a district as Texas 8th, shall we do anything to show him our support? If so, please also consider making a donation to Jim's campaign so he can spread the call to action message on impeachment, starting to bring our troops home from Iraq, and on so many other issues.

DONATIONS: http://www.usalone.com/wright/donations.php

Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed to be ours, and forward this message to everyone else you know.

If you would like to get alerts like these, you can do so at http://www.usalone.com/in.htm

9. They defiantly need to hear from us. Republicans will be
backing Joe with $ and votes. Our Dems need to quickly knock the legs out from under this spoiler!!!!! Every one of them that supported him has helped create this spoiler race that will be coming up. Lets watch and see how many of them are loyal to the voters. They need to be told this is not the good ole' boys club!!!!! They helped make this mess and they need to clean it up!!! I am pissed that they helped create this mess! CALL OR E_MAIL THEM NOW!!!!!!!!!!

21. Already emailed Boxer, Feinstein, Schumer, Reid, & Clinton
I demanded that they privately speak to Lieberman to not run as an Independent and that they openly, financially and with their time give their support and campaign for Ned Lamont. I also emphasized that what Lieberman is doing is splitting the Dem party and could cause us the lose of the Senate Majority in November either as a spoiler or as the Independent winner. I also emphasized that the splitting of the party and loss of the majority would then be on their shoulders, not just Lieberman's if they didn't speak out against Lieberman and support Ned Lamont.

They have got to see this is true. Also, I see this morning that the Faux News and ole Timmy Russert on MSNBC are spinning it as a referendum on the War and that its going to be "all about the War for the Dems". This by the way is simply not true. Its more than just the war, although certainly this war is an issue. There are many things beyond the War. Its a referendum against this Unitary Executive Branch and the policies such as privacy (think Schiavo) or issues like the NSA Warrantless spying on US citizens. Meanwhile, what the MSM is failing to mention when they talk about the war being an issue, is that the war is ALSO AN ISSUE for many Republicans. You don't have the majority of this country polling against the War unless there are a lot of Republicans in that figure.

The Republicans know this and they are afraid of that.

25. I did this yesterday. Between auto-fill and Cut and Paste it took
a grand total of 15 minutes. Do it, folks. I'm at work and I did it.
