A couple of protest I thought of
one is pretty cheap...

I would like to see as many people as possible e-mail video of themselves to Bill Frist asking for a diagnosis. Any mention of a lack of healthcare would be funny, too.


The other one takes a bit more investment...

From a list of senators likely to support a flag burning amendment we mail bits of flags from their state sincerley asking if what we have done counts as desecration. For example, does a tremendous amount of semen on the Texas flag count as desecration, Senator Cronyn? Are state flags allowed to be desecrated and does this frothy "santorum" couont as desecration Mr Santorum?

I like the Frist idea better.

1. I like the Frist one too
The second one strikes me as likely to backfire. Extremely likely to backfire.

2. I love the Frist idea
Also, I would like to ask him to rally congress to force the state to treat me.

3. So I sent him an email
My knee hurts. If I send you a videotape can you tell me what is wrong with it? Also, can you get Congress to force my state to treat me?

Thanks dude,
Randy


I will work on getting an MPOeg to him.


Coincidentally, a lot of movies might REALLY slow down the Senate server....

4. Nice work. I think I will do something similar
Maybe something like

"Dr. Frist:

I have always suspected that I have a crippling anxiety disorder, but I can't afford health insurance or see a doctor. However, I understand that your area of expertise is in the new field of "Remote Diagnosis". Therefore, I was wondering: If I were to send you my picture, can you send me a perscription for Xanax?

Thanks again,

CP"


Actually, yes, I will send that very one.
