I'm one of the Georgia guys who couldn't get through until some awesome FReeper posted the 800 lines from la raza (or whoever). I got through to both senators WITHOUT THE PHONE EVEN RINGING.
I know spanish... so it was fun listening. It's all in spanish until they sloooowly state what they want spanish speakers to repeat..." spanish spanish spanish spanish...."I strongly support comprehensive immigration reform. I support SB ####".spanish...spanish...spanish...
"press 1 for senator now" and voila.
RinaseaofDs - ping to post for a Ga. Freeper who called the spanish line and got through!
Principled - thanks. But please don’t be too derogatory about our Senators when you tell this story. It’s important for us to remember that Elected Officials truly are a Higher and More Important class of citizen than you or I. And therefore, they should be awarded with Priviliges that are Over and Beyond what the common man is allowed.
Health insurance far better than anything they would force upon us.
Free trips to travel the world on “fact finding” golf junkets.
Perks and payoffs from their employment that would have the IRS locking us up.
Pensions that even the most aggressive of union reps can’t produce for their members.
And, of course, the ability not to have to listen to the rantings and ravings of people who don’t Understand how Important they are and the Difficult Decisions they must make for the Good of the Country.
