1.When the DNC put the recorders on and shut down, it was BEFORE the time they said they closed.
2. When I have called Republican representatives and Senators, they generally had someone answer the phone, and when they didn't, they generally had a functional mail box that didn't just happen to be full.

Unfortunately the phone lines are down but I just sent a fax to the DNC (which is still working BTW) to express my opinion.
That number is:
(202) 863-8063
UPDATE: No, they've shut that down too.
