“If people are sincerely upset and really feel the need to “do something”, they need to be burning up the phone lines to their congress critters, like right now.”

You’re assuming that isn’t happening - it is.

In addition, the fact is many in Congress and the President himself read and consider FreeRepublic when gauging conservative sentiment. You can bet they’ve taken note that “people are sincerely upset”.

Try not to project your own inadequacies so much; it’s not helpful.

Maybe I'm not getting around the site as much as I should, clicking in the right places. I've seen a smattering here and there of someone posting that they have contacted their Congressman and so forth. Haven't noted any threads with a heading like "CALL YOUR CONGRESSMAN....!!" floating around - even looked under Activism/Chapters & Free Republic (News/Activism) - nope not there. Or maybe I've somehow missed them.

Pro-active contact initiated by citizens is what gets the job done. Expecting posts on an internet site to equal that kind of pressure is a rather poor assumption and a projection of inadequacies.

LoL - speak for yourself. Being lectured by anonymous strangers over the internet who don't know a thing about me is always good for a laugh.
