To put Obama on notice re: SS and Medicare cuts.... |

http://www.whitehouse.gov/contactYou can whine that it won't help but it sure as hell can't hurt. Get writing! Putting your outrage on DU doesn't help. THEY need to see it on Capitol Hill!

1. Haven't we gone through this "pre" histeria before? Any quotes from Obama? (ie, not "sources") |

4. No. People sat on their thumbs until after Obama made some backroom deal |

2. White House official pushes back that it won’t be making a “grand offer” on Social Security. |

5. I wouldn't take that for granted at this point. It's not like Obama has never caved in. n/t |

7. Sent emails last night. |
|
To the White House, Senators Murray and Cantwell, and Rep. Adam Smith. Dems that support cuts in SS or Medicare will lose the vote of this lifelong Democrat.

This is really a matter of money ... who has it, and who pays to get representation.

12. Thank you. He needs to hear a LOT of this.... |
|
...whatever the outcome - it can't hurt to let him know that even though HE won't draw any lines in the sand, WE will.
If he's going to go down - and possibly the economy too (and it will if the ceiling isn't raised OR if SS and Medicare are cut) then I expect that he should go do fighting for Democratic principles, not pandering to Teapublican ones.
