Reps. Ellen Tauscher and Tom Lantos were the only Democrats in the Bay Area House delegation to support giving President Bush the authority to go to war with Iraq. And after four months of peace protests, organized e-mail campaigns and street theater -- they haven't changed their minds a bit.

These anti-american peaceniks may also be e-mailing the media too to protest their supposed support of the Bush Administration.

Cogressman was on Imus this morning and said most if not all congressional offices filter out non-constituent e-mail.

"Let the UN inspections run their course, even if it take months" WRONG! We DID let the UN Inspections run their course and they took 8 years (-4 years that they were kicked out of IRAQ in 1998) TIME'S UP and NOW we NEED TO JUST FINISH THE JOB STARTED IN 1991...

Same effect as cyber-polls: Nada, zip and nary-a-nary.

might as well go virtual since their physical protest are doing nothing

nothing + nothing = liberal

They till beating a dead horse! But let them. They look like fools in the eyes of the public.

And a portion of those that signed up will probably forget to make their calls in the time slot assigned... I have a ROTTEN memory ;-)

Too bad all the Dims are on the Senate floor filibustering Estrada and not buried under faxes in their offices. The imagery is great, picture weaselly arms and legs sticking out of big piles of paper rushing out of a fax machine.

There is hope yet when you hear a Democrat from CA say he makes decisions based on facts, not peace demonstrations! Ahh, a light at the end of the tunnel!

Also, if there is some kind of attack on DC today because terrorists know that communication lines are overtaxed giving them a better than average opportunity to strike, these Dims better watch out! The War on Terror will become the War on Democrats!

No I'm sure they remembered to make their calls! Since they have no real jobs to go to, their days are free to march, mail, call and whine!!!

BUMP!
