2. Take action-
Gonzales
If I might piggyback this issue-
Tell Your Senator and Members of the Judiciary: Vote Your Values, Reject Gonzales
A reminder: keep the pressure on Senate Judiciary Cmte members by telling them to vote no on Alberto Gonzales.
Since LiberalOasis noted on Monday that key Dems remain publicly on the fence (and in turn, needed a big grassroots push), there’s been no change to that dynamic.
Values are not a mere buzzword to toss around.
They are “the foundation”. They are what you hold most dear. They “guide” your policies and actions every day.
So, if rejection of torture really is a value – a value that distinguishes Democrats from Republicans – it would dictate your vote on Gonzales.

4. Let both your Senators know that you want a filibuster
Edited on Sun Jan-16-05 05:51 PM by Eric J in MN
against Alberto Gonzales.

Even if both your Senators are Republicans, speak out against that torturer.

You can find contact info for Senators by entering your zipcode in the top-left at:
