am considering going to see Congressman Frank
Edited on Sun Jun-12-05 01:22 PM by stellanoir
at 5:00 today.

Just ran an errand to a neighboring MA town and saw a really funky hand made sign posted between the Quaker Church and the Community Center that read "Rep. Barney Frank Here Sunday 5:00."

Though I am not a constituent, being from a neighboring state, am thinking about going. If given the opportunity to say something, I'd naturally ask him about election reform and the DSM.

Does anyone have any suggestions for what else I might bring up to him on the off chance that it might be possible at such a low key small town venue?

2. thanks
I haven't followed him that closely to know that he took a stand against the SS looting plan. Just know that he's a total character which is why I think it's kind of charming that he's appearing down here in the boonies at all.

3. He is the brightest person in Congress
Make sure that your questions are short an succinct because he does not like protracted statement. He was against the war. He is very liberal and does not suffer fools gladly. I happen to like him very much. He has had some interesting statements on bush. You will love him I know I do. I have been following him since he was my congressman back in 1983. He isn't my congressman now but I still contribute to his efforts.

5. And by the way
He talks like we do. But he is funnier. SS will never be changed like bush wants it to if Barney were in charge.

6. thanks for
your feedback. I've always gotten a kick out of him and I only had intended to ask for comments on those two issues. I'll try to keep it short and sweet if given the chance.

4. Tell him the media and the voting machines are hijacking democracy for
the fascists who own and control both.
