Gee, Mud ... can you elaborate what the hell you wish to achieve with that massive e-mail platform?

How about actually ... CALLING ... your Senators and House Representatives and communicating like human beings? Shit, you might actually get a personal relationship going with the people who make decisions on your life. Every Freeper should know the name of the people who pick up the phone in their Senator and House Rep offices. Every Freeper should make a trip to D.C. to shake their hands and let them know you exist. Freeep.

I really hate this e-mail spam crap launched from here. Hey, why the hell would my representative, representing the Western suburbs of Minneapolis, give one tinkers damn what some guy from Virginia thinks?

Is there a point, here somewhere, when the folks who use FR for dumbass mobbing/spamming grow up?

Yeah...just wanna make it as easy as possible fer folks to be able to register their disapproval fer this ill-conceived proposal by Dubyuh to as many legislators as possible.

Well, Arne, I know my Congressman (Cantor), and he knows me, and now his folks know I'm upset with rewarding illegal immigrants for committing a crime.

Sorry if mass-emailing our viewpoints to Congress ain't yer cup o' tea, but it's simply another way to spread the word of our dissatisfaction with the Leftist direction this President has unfortunately chosen to pursue on far too many issues. Trying to influence the hearts and minds of fellow FReepers is all fine and dandy, but sometimes it's necessary to make the decision-makers aware of our views, even if they ain't our particular representatives.

IMHO, of course...MUD
