Send this photo to all of your senators

Maybe they'll get a clue.

For those of you that don't know, it's from
Mr Smith Goes to Washington.
This is a picture of Senator Smith fillibustering.

6. I'll send it to my senators, but I'm pretty sure they won't care.
Dewine-o and Voinovich, though Voinovish is more likely as a republican to support the idea than about 80% of those party liners, he actually breaks sometimes and shows a consience.

8. Welcome to DU Mach351! Don't start out negative. We need all the
positivity that we can get. A lot is happening now and sometimes it just takes one little thing, (like maybe a photo) to wake a person up.

I say if you can't reason them into good action then at least shame them out of bad behavior.

12. I sent a message about Alito
and that it is time to FILIBUSTER to every Dem. Senator I thought would listen (ie, I left out Lieberman, Clinton, and several others) I sent a special plea to Feingold, probably the one that could help lead it, IMHO. Oh, and sent the link to the "Mr. Smith goes to Washington" pic! (Senate doesn't accept attachments!)
Thanks for the idea, pirhana!
:thumbsup:

15. Kerry is one we probably don't need to worry about
He is actually in the middle east
Was in India, now Pakistan visiting the earthquake victims, next to Afganistan, and then to Iraq.

I'm just praying he'll be back in time for when the vote hits the Senate floor.
