Poll question: How have your calls re Gonzales been going
I know a lot of people here have been calling their Senators and demanding a filibuster. This question is for them. Also, with your calls, make sure they know that a simple "no" is meaningless. The only opposition is a filibuster.

1. They are backing the Torturer
but what do I expect? Its Chambliss and newcomer Isakson, both pukes. Hey, never hurts to ask though, right?

3. Funny. A Senator's knowledge of parlimentary procedure and Senate rules
should negate our having to tell them. If they don't know the difference between a simple "no" and a filibuster, then I don't think they are in the right job.

4. Conyers and Hutchinson
Gee, let me guess how they are going to vote. They are usually so THOUGHTFUL. So UNPREDICTABLE. Yeah, right.

5. Called DC offices, but only spoke to phone answerers...
however, in Collin's office they said they'd add me to "the list"....that was good news, there's a list!
