[Conscience of a Conservative]

The only problem with sending snail mail to Congress (or, really, any branch of government) these days is that, with all of the security screening that goes on, it's very slow (I've heard that it often takes weeks for a piece of mail to reach a Congressional office). Probably better to call/e-mail - yes, each individual e-mail/call will likely be ignored, but once they start to pile up, the sheer volume tends to get their attention...

Yes, it is slow to get old fashioned mail to these creeps, but they are getting my letters eventually. There is no way these 2 dems will ever change the way they vote, but that doesn’t mean I won’t tell ‘em where to stick it. They count on people being silent, and they count on us keeping on paying taxes they waste. I will not be silent. A few thousand real letters might at least get their attention for a few minutes, and then they’ll go back to screwing the American Taxpayers.

The email/voice boxes are full, and they won't empty them. They have shut off the people. They are no longer our representatives.

That is true. USPS gets it to the capital "mailroom" in decent time, but they screen every piece for nasty stuff (like Anthrax), and aren't in any particular hurry to get the mail through to the elected officials (especially when there's a lot of mail because of current "issues").
