We are the grassroots and should be credible just as the players are (the writers, the talk show hosts, politicians, lobbyists and all those influencing the government’s actions).

We need to be able to get people to listen to us and then not throw out our views as mere rantings from the masses.

Rush + Sean + Savage + Gallagher + Ingraham et al = 30 million + listeners. That's uh... us.

What, you think they listen to your emails and phone calls?

We are the grassroots and should be credible just as the players are (the writers, the talk show hosts, politicians, lobbyists and all those influencing the government’s actions).

And should we be just as credible as the tens of thousands of illegals in our streets with Mexican flags and Spanish signs? We're supposed to be sitting here, politely sipping tea with our pinkies out and discussing everything oh so sweetly and respectfully? Bush only listened to those 3rd world mobs, not us - the ones that went door to door for him, sent him money even if we couldn't afford it, wore a 'Security Moms for Bush' T-shirt all over, and plastered our cars with 'W' stickers. Now, we've been dismissed as "irate constituents" that "don't know what's good for America." And you expect me to be polite? (And to who? pssssss - nobody from the WH is listening...)
