Call Obama!
BuzzFlash story:

http://www.buzzflash.com/index.php?story=Story

Seems Obama might be arguing against filibuster.
Also, Byrd has betrayed us.

2. doesn't hurt to call anyway
it could be false, but if it's true and he gets enough heat about it, he may reconsider.

4. no it doesn't hurt--
if people are asking him to support Kerry's filibuster.

What does hurt is rumours being spread on this forum as if they are fact. All it does is piss people off and take their energy away from where it is desperately needed.

I'd never even heard of that site before today. Not one I've ever encountered though DU or other internet sources I trust.

8. Good to know--
While I probably don't have a leg to stand on regarding this, I still don't think this is relevant unless it is coming directly from the source. When it is, then I'll react. In the meantime, I'd rather focus on trying to get as many as we can to support us.

:hi: Thank you for the info on buzzflash. I'll have to visit them from time to time.

3. Screw them, indeed!
It's called divide and conquer--only trust what is coming directly from the source. Don't panic, and don't take your eyes off the goal...

Read this, too!

9. I would be rather
dismayed if he didn't support it. I would think many of his constituents would be affected if Alito is ultimately seated...

I hope the site is wrong, as it would be quite baffling otherwise. :shrug:
