If that’s true, it took quite a volume of calls to do it.

Knowing something about how phone switches work and what their software guts looks like... I’m impressed.

Could be true, then again I wouldn't put it past the traitors to unplug the system, and then put out a story that it crashed.

Who knows anymore. They are all liars and traitors.

Here is a list of the key staff contacts of the "Amnesty 8" Senators (plus Domenici and Cochran) that are most likely to be persuaded to vote no on Thursday and derail amnesty. Many offices are putting calls straight to voicemail and they can just trash faxes (and letters take weeks to get through due to security). Hit Hill staff where they are so codependent - their Blackberries! Send email directly to staff - not just the generic Senate office mailbox. Contact their Chief of Staff, Legislative Director, and Press Secretary. Make your voice heard!!

For the Democrats, I would strongly suggest taking a pro-union/anti-illegal alien stance (i.e. "they are taking our jobs") rather than using the conservative national security angle.

Knowing the bunch of criminals in the senate, I suspect that they shut the system down.
This bunch needs to be replaced. The whole bunch of them. They are the biggest bunch of elite effete snobs there is. They are pampered, privileged, and highly paid.

This explains why I can’t get thru to Senator Levin today.

As I said in another post, Sen. Stabenow is not in favor of the bill. Since she is a follower, usually voting according to the wishes of her party’s leadership, this means that the Dems have bailed on the plan.

If the Dems have indeed bailed, this leaves McCain, Voinavich, et al holding the bag.

“FOX News - Major Garrett - Senate phone system has crashed due to

I suspect the vast majority of those callers don’t “press 2 for Spanish”!
