Fax your own at http://www.SaveTheCourt.org/AlitoFilibuster!

I cannot believe that you are going to let the GOP walk all over you and the Constitution.

I'm not a corporation, I'm not a millionaire, I'm just a regular working-class American citizen who believes in justice, fair elections, and an honest government.

Where is MY representation?

I thought you stood for justice, for incorruptibility, for all the freedoms that make America what it was. Yet you are letting it slip away as your people are left destitute in the streets -- laid off, without health care, without any type of financial security -- all while Bush and corporate profiteers get their way over and over and over again.

And all the while dissent is becoming riskier and riskier, to the point where I am nervous about signing this fax.... Is this how you want honest Americans to feel?

When does it end? You say wait on the filibuster -- wait for WHAT? What's it going to take?

You thought Clinton's sexual escapades were bad for the nation? Well, how do you feel about the CORRUPTION in Washington? What about the no-bid contracts for Iraq and Katrina? What about Abramoff? What about the criminal mismanagement of billions of dollars in Iraq? What about the lying and intimidation of scientists who speak out about global warming? How about Bush encouraging corporation to poison our air and water?

These are OK????

You were elected to represent the people. So please do the right thing. Rescue America from the tyranny of extremism and filibuster Alito!

And if you don't, you can be replaced, because you don't represent me or anybody I know.

to deal with... This goes to their conscience.
