The number isn't free today....and it's now answered by the group that opposes ending the filibuster!

Perhaps you were duped? I hope you were not intentially misinforming FReepers.

Here is a correct TOLL FREE NUMBER:

1-877-762-8762

Dang! It worked for me yesterday.

I may call it again and tell them I am FOR ENDING
the BS filibuster and they can jump in the lake.

I pinged my lists as you requested in your post #12, using the number provided in the original posters' text. Unfortunately, the corrected number was not provided to me at that time.

Sorry for the second ping, folks, but FReeper extraordinaire JulieRNR21 has pointed out that the number has been changed on us. Coincidence? Not likely.

Here is the correct TOLL FREE NUMBER:

1-877-762-8762

Interesting: message at 866-808-0065 is:

[?thank you for..] .... participating in national call in day to support checks and balances, preserve minority rights, and oppose the nuclear option (lol). Upon hearing this message, we urge you to hang up and call your senator at (202) 224 - 3121.

Took a while, but I did get through to switchboard at 1 - 877 - 762 - 8762 -- talked to our Democrat senator. Aide thanked me for my input. Now calling the other one.

Every senator, regardless of party, should be called by their constituents. They need to hear opposition.

Just spoke to Mel's staffer. . . interesting. I did a threefer comment regarding other recent FL issues, and thanked him.

These calls are always interesting, aren't they? A little window on how things are done, and we -- for our part -- make them aware of how things are perceived, eg, not using the term "nuclear option".

This is the least I can do, since can't be in Washington or even Tally for March II.

No dupe, here. American Family Association sent out email stating that the 866 number would be good for the 6th and 7th. When I found that this was not the case, I called and spoke with them. They have been beseiged with calls, this morning because, as it turns out, this change happened without their knowledge. It seems that somebody changed the game plan, and they do not yet know who.

So, my profuse apologies for the seeming bait-and-switch -- it was completely beyond my control. Also, kudos and many thanks to heads-up FReeper JulieRNR21 for getting a working number posted, and to the Admin for correcting my original post.

When this all shakes out, we may find that there were dirty dealings at the root of it and we may not, so I'll hold my fire until we know. But I'm keeping my powder dry and my lead handy just the same.
