My Senators voted against it, too, but I'm mailing my bricks to Frist, Hastert, and Bush.

Some Los Angeles talk show hosts got their listeners to buy thousands of toilet brushes and send them to the mayor, because he said, "We clean your toilets" at a pro-"immigration" rally. I'd rather see people putting that money into a pool from which we could buy advertising. A media campaign ("Ken Salazar thinks illegal aliens deserve your job") would be a lot more effective than stunts like mailing bricks and toilet brushes.

The second thing is, how did they afford the postage?
Does that sound like "Let them eat cake," or what.
To: Dead Corpse
Oh Please Oh Please tell us about this!!!!
I LOVE the idea!
Is there a web site that will handle this or that you can get the bricks from... or do I go down to the local hardware store and get a few bricks?

The second thing is, how did they afford the postage?The big question for him should be "Does he have another job lined up for after his next election?"

More info at the website. Either DIY from their suggestions, like I did, or there was a guy that was doing it for you "at cost". About $10-12 a brick.

Or, buy your own brick and use the Post Office One-Rate Priority Box and send it for $8.10 + cost of the brick. The boxes are free at the post office.

Send A Brick To Congress
I already did - I voted in '04. My bricks are currently wasting space . . . . er, occupying seats in the Senate!

These guys think we can't afford anything, when what we cannot afford is them.
To: capt. norm
Evidently, mailing bricks is not having the desired effect on waking up some Senators (my two are perfect on this issue, BTW).
I guess the next step would be THROWING bricks.

***Sen. Wayne Allard, R-Colo., laughed about the heavy bricks he has found in his in-box, saying he'll have to weigh them against the letters and calls he receives from both sides. ***
Keep laughing you SOB, maybe soon you will be laughing on the unemployment line.
