I think he knows what he is talking about....see this from Powerline:

Tune In For the Latest from DC

************************************EXCERPTS**********************************

March 20, 2010 Posted by John at 9:50 AM

UPDATE: The press conference that Bart Stupak had scheduled for this morning has been postponed. Presumably that means that he and other members of his anti-abortion group have not reached a deal with Nancy Pelosi. Not sure what that means for the Democrats' ability to get to 216; Pelosi has said that they can pass the bill with or without Stupak's support.

MORE: James Hohmann says that the Democrats do NOT have 216 votes. By his count, she is at 206-208. Critically, James says that the "yes" votes that Pelosi has announced over the last few days are the very ones that insiders have viewed as Pelosi's aces in the hole, the members she could force to vote for the bill in an extremity. The Dems are still twisting arms, obviously, but James thinks there is a possibility they may be forced to delay tomorrow's vote.

STILL MORE: Byron York: "Rules Committee meeting descends into chaos." Are the wheels coming off for the Democrats?

AIN’T JUST GRANNY & GRAMPS GETTING WHACK, MILITARY IS TOO.

KEEP THE CALLS UP! DC OFFICE LOCAL OFFICE

Hold your own street protest in front of your reps local offices. Or busy street corners. Try and get the local media to cover it. Hammer the Medicare/SS issue, nothing like mad grannies and gramps.

This is from a 2007 contact list of congressional aides. Some might not be there any longer, but worth a try. The ones on the one post are senate aides, a few have bounced back, it’s worth the effort to clog up their email system along with the phones, and 1/3rd of these senators are up for re-election.

Mail must be inspected for anthrax takes 2 weeks, so if you snail mail send a post card

Contact congressional aides.

CODE RED Contact list http://www.nrcc.org/CodeRed/targets/
Remember they are all being offered BRIBES for their votes. Ask them how much their bribe price is.

The National Republican Congressional Committee has published a target list on health care. In addition to continuing to contact the five Tennessee Democrat Congressmen, you can go http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/94697.aspx to contact some of these targets. Much of the talk following Obama’s announcement has focused on how to defeat this second bill through reconciliation, but that is misleading because the first step to defeating Obamacare is not by concentrating on defeating the “fixer” bill but by defeating the Senate bill in the House when it goes to the floor for an up-or-down vote on Sunday March 21st.

Good idea from the bloggers at Hillbuzz:

http://hillbuzz.org/2010/03/17/action-items-march-17th-2010/
They offer specifics and links on how to put pressure on Dem DONORS, who have private numbers for legislators who may have taken their phones off the hook.

Congress may not want to hear from us, but they’ll listen to the money men.
Call them and fax them them instead of telling us you don’t trust them.

NEW NO’s

Jason Altmire 202-225-2565, Aliquippa, 724-378-0928, Natrona Heights, 724-226-1304 (NO)
Michael A. Arcuri (NY-24) NO
Harry Teague NM NO

And here are toll-free numbers we can use to call any Senators or Reps.

At the first number below you must wait through a tape recording urging you to tell your Rep or Senator to vote “yes” for the health care bill. Just hang on and when the recording is over, you will get the Capitol operator. Just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Then you will either talk to an aid or have the chance to leave a message for him/her to vote NO on the health care bill.

When you use the second number and the Capitol operator comes on, just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Every time I use this number I get the Rep or Senator’s answer machine, so it may be set up that way all the time...to go to their answer machine. Either way you can leave a message to vote NO on the health care bill!

We need to use these toll free numbers that have been set up for the health care/ BO supporters and illegals to use! After all they are FREE!

Saudia/Fox News were Obama cheerleaders on election night. Fox is NOT our friend.

The others (CNN, Disney-ABC, CBS, NBC/MSNBC) are even worse.

I cancelled TV. TV gives the liberals power. Turning it off is not enough if you are paying for cable or sat TV. It still funds the lib networks.

It doesn’t matter. If you have cable or sat Tv - about a $1 a month goes to CNN and their variants, $1 to ABC/Disney, $1 to GE/MSNBC/NBC?CNBC, and probably more than $1 a month to Viacom/CBS.

Watching Ann Boleyn, Catherine Parr, Catherine of Aragon, or Richard the 3rd does not matter. It comes off you sat of cable TV bill. TV gives the liberal power over the masses. We finance our serfdom.

I haven't watched a full speech of 0bama’s ever.

There is something about seeing and hearing me that makes me queasy. I get an uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach.

I get the same uncomfortable feelings when (trying) to watch him speak. I have to change the channel or leave the room. I can't quite figure it out. It is different than the first time I saw Bill Clinton on TV. I had an instant dislike/distrust of him but with nObama it is different/worse. The man is creepy!

No. You can be very selective. Classical music? Buy German or get it online.

Movies, tv shows, documentaries? Sign up for NetFlix and pick and choose. I think the Netflix guy is a Christian. They have retail stores that sell music, videos, books, etc. I forget the name.

Fox seems to be slipping towards the dark side, in an effort to be “in” with the current Administration.

The Bret Baier interview of Obama most likely had a hand in this. Duh Dims thought was tooooooo hard on Obama. I bet O'Reilly think so too. See [Fox] we're pulling for you to pass Obama Scare! At least publicly.

Does John B know what he is talking about, or is this wishful thinking. For some reason he doesn’t seem too concerned.

Boehner always strikes me as appearing to be more worried about how he's going to get away to have a smoke when something runs long, or get to the tanning salon.

Baron Hill represents a very competetitive district in southern Indiana.

A vote like this could be a killer in November - regardless of the outcome of the final bill.

And I hope it is.
