Stop judicial tyranny and stop the filibusters.

When I went to a pro-life meeting this evening, they had postcards for us to send to our U.S. senators.

If you call your U.S. Senators, tell them you want them to vote to end filibusters by a simple majority as the Constitution requires.

Should the Senate fail to conform to the Constitution's rule of a simple majority, a minority of 40 liberal Senators can use the filibuster to force their agenda on every American. Get your friends to call.

The NEW toll-free number is 1-877-762-8762! If that's busy, you can call this toll number (202-224-3121) or call
your U.S. senators at their individual numbers (or contact them by FAX).

Ask to speak with your Senator. When finished leaving your message, call your other Senator.

There is a formula, and I THINK it goes like this:

If you e-mail, it counts it as 10 voters.

If you call, it counts it as 50 voters.

If you write a letter, it counts it as 100 voters.

If you go in person, it counts it as 500 voters.

I think I have the formula down, but please correct me if I am wrong.

No--

You have the formula down pretty good!

The problem is that most conservatives just live their life focused on their own actions. The best witness is not your words- but your actions. So we don't spend as much time rinning to cameras and microphones trying to sway opinions and spend so much of our efforts in rhetoric. But we are learning.

We have been pushed into a corner for too long. We are starting to PUSH back. And the opposition DOES NOT LIKE IT!

and your formula is dead on.

However, if mailing, mail direct to your senator in your state - not DC, as the mail getting to them there, because of the continued screening (anthrax) takes up to 2 months (!) to get through. Also, they pay more attention getting mail at their home office, they know it's from the people that vote for them.
