What influence? He no influence, respect, or credibility left.
A new calling plan, “Call All”
It is time to call beyond the published phone numbers. Example; 202-224-3121 is the published number for the Senate Switchboard. If you dial 202-224-2887 you get the Senate Commerce Committee answer line. 202-224-3445 end up with the Senate Building Health Unit The idea is to work through the last four digits in sequence who answers give them the message. Some of you geeks, I say that with admiration; can probably develop a list of all the combinations which will keep us busy from the calling end. Are you with me?
Well there you have it.
In case you havent seen this.

For those of you having difficulty getting thru to your senator, here is the 800 # paid for by the Mexican Amnesty Activists:
800-882-2005
This will get you directly to your senator unlike the #s available to the US Citizen.
Press 1 when you hear a Spanish message, then Press 1 again to be transferred to your senior senators office
OR
Press 2 when you hear a Spanish message, and youll be transferred to your junior senators office.
You get through immediately and the call is paid for by the enemy!

(Just a reminder - The Illegals HAVE ACCESS to (who are supposedly) our Senators.
Use their money to talk to a live person directly on the first call, not a busy phone message center or an (all too often ignored) fax machine..
"Dad .... You .... Me .... Hillary .... Jeb ...... Chelsea ..... Juanita ....."
(With proper attribution, of course.)
Grrrrrr.
There is another number by illegal activists and that is 800-417-7666. This will get you in touch with your senators. Please use all the toll free activist numbers you can, we will beat them using their money for phone calls!
Bush has very little influence now - pubbie Senators opposed to this bill know that he never will run for re-election again. But they do have to face the voters eventually.
If Bush tries too hard, and suffers another defeat, his remaining months would be better served on a golf course, as he wouln’t even be able to get a Congressional raise approved.
Men like him are needed....
So is water circling the drain.
This bill failed in the first go-round due to lack of support for anything similar to an amnesty. They go out of their way to say it’s not amnesty, but allowing those here illegally to stay under some circumstances sure looks like an amnesty.
And why is there such a need for this bill in the 1st place? Illegals are a big problem, but, considering that it’s already illegal to sneak into this country and work here, and already illegal for employers to hire illegal workers, that enforcement of existing laws would do more to solve the problem than just adding another layer of laws to our immigration problem.
Test Clout?
What a joke. This isn’t about “absolute power”. It’s about the sovernity of our nation.
Bump to find...again!
Still, even with his stature diminished, supporters of the measure say a strong nudge from Bush could give Republicans the political protection they need to back the contentious bill.
Any Republican up there that thinks that is sorely misguided.
Poor Bush. He doesn’t realize he has already lost all clout with conservatives.
“Jacoby said the immigration measure is “dangerously close” to being killed by a small but vocal conservative minority...”
Amen! Bush needs to use his wealth of political capital to force this through, surely it surpasses a small minority of senators! He has not shown the mettle and leadership he did last year when a bill passed the Senate. Bush needs to get on the road, take the bull by the horns, and usurp McCain’s “straight talk express.” Like last year he needs to tell the people that religious and family values do not stop at the Rio Grande, that opponents are vigilantes, that we are not “welcoming” if we don’t support his bill, and gosh dern it, opponents are un-American.
Also he needs to meet with Calderon more, and release more P.R. about how he talks with Calderon daily by phone about how the Senate bill is in the best interests of Mexico.
