NO EXCUSE NOT TO FILIBUSTER (New ABC/WP Poll#'s SEND W/FAXES!!!)
Add these poll numbers to your faxes:

Poll: Weak Ratings Confront Bush Ahead of State of Union

Bush's bottom-line job rating — 42 percent of Americans approve of his work, 56 percent disapprove — is the worst for a president entering his sixth year in office since Watergate hammered Richard Nixon. And Bush's is not a single-issue problem: More than half disapprove of his work in eight out of nine areas tested in this ABC News/Washington Post poll, from Iraq to immigration to health care.

--snip--

OPPOSITION — Bush's problems clearly benefit the opposition: Americans — by a 16-point margin, 51 percent to 35 percent — now say the country should go in the direction in which the Democrats want to lead, rather than follow Bush. That's a 10-point drop for the president from a year ago, and the Democrats' first head-to-head majority of his presidency.

The Republican Party is feeling the pinch as well. The Democrats lead them by 14 points, 51 percent to 37 percent, in trust to handle the nation's main problems, the first Democratic majority on this question since 1992. And the Democrats hold a 16-point lead in 2006 congressional election preferences, 54 percent to 38 percent among registered voters, their best since 1984.

--snip--

Fifty-three percent don't see him as honest and trustworthy.

3. We need to keep it up!
This administration has done absolutely nothing for the working class American. They have kept people in fear so that they can push their agenda. The Democrats need to keep the domestic issues in their faces.
The big question What has this administration done to improve your quality of life? They done nothing for mine.
