Hi,

Yes, I'm ok. Thank you for checking in. My blood pressure is a bit high at the moment because I'm having trouble keeping this action alert up and getting people to participate in it.

If you've already given the media and Congress a piece of your mind over the Gulf disaster response, great! You're free to go. If not, I have some really handy dandy easy peasy email forms you can fill out at major activism networks like Move-On that will contact the media and your congress critters for you.

Some of them have prewritten letters, some do not however the activism thread below is chock full of DUer letters, pick one and borrow it. There are plenty of other Katrina facts and figures in the thread as well if you need more ammo. If you prefer to call the Hill and chew out a real live human being you can find that info there as well.

Please, we need help shouting down the spin doctors and the repugs on the Hill. We need numbers and volume. We have to speak up for the people whose lives were torn apart or ended by Katrina, FEMA, and Fatherland InSecurity. If we don't speak up for them, who will?

Thank you!

1. I'm with you! We must be the voices for our brothers and sisters

whose cries were silenced by this group of evil, maniacal madmen!

peace.

3. Than you! As mod mom pointed out in a cross post of this thread

in GD, we need to speak up too about Blackwater and the no-bid contracts. I didn't touch on those in my last letter. So I think that's what I will call the Hill about today.
