I'm at the point where it seems to me the only thing that will work is if we all gather with flaming torches held high on the steps of the Capitol

You know, you just might be on to something .....

Maybe we can't demand that their heads roll but if 3 or 4 thousand (or 10,000 ... or whatever) show up on the Capitol steps demanding justice .... handing out flyers with the actual deeds/words of these criminals..... We might be able to get somebody's attention. The worst that could happen is nothing but maybe we can at least shut them the hell up!!

One of our local State Representatives told me that here (Indiana) 3 or 4 phone calls from constituents gets the antennas up at the state house and 10 to 12 means they have a problem on their hands (sad, isn't it).

If 10-12 people calling at the state level is a problem, 5,000 people on the Capitol steps with signs and anger for a couple of days has got to have an effect.

2 questions, is anybody up for this and if so, does anybody know how to go about organizing such a thing?

You wouldn't happen to be in Gnawbone, Indiana would you? I reside in Indiana as well. Will you be calling Senators Bayh, Lugar, et al?

Maybe we could have signs made to LOOK like flaming torches. :o) I'm fed up with the wimpy responses of our representatives. Do I have to get out my old hippie clothes to demand justice? (Don't worry...I was a conservative hippie. Really...it's not an oxymoron.)

First thing to do is stage it as an anti-war, pro democrat rally. Then, do a turnabout on em and see how they like us now !!
