What I sent to the NRSC ...


I and others on Free Republic has decided to pledge
$120 in contributions each to NSRC *if* you force the
Democrats to vote via 24/7 round-the-clock
debate time.

It goes without saying that the Democrats
are wrong on substance: They are being extremely
unfair to a well-qualified nominee, who sacres them
because a moderate-conservative Hispanic breaks
the minority stereotype of 'belonging' to the Liberal
Democrats. They WILL LOSE POLITICALLY if
their bias and unfairness on this issue is forced
into the open.

Your task must be to win by making the political
cost for the Democrats too high to bear.
You must bring it out into the open and force the
Democrats to allow a vote or go through extreme
and public measures to stop it.

Dont let the Democrats off the hook with this
filibuster, dont let them take a cloture vote and
go home. If they want more time, give it to them
and make them choke on it - round the clock,
day and night, 7 days a week, until the vote is made.

As it becomes more public, the extreme
narrow-mindedness of their position will
be clear to all.

You CAN break their filibuster, if you
have the will. I urge you to do so.
Hold the line!

I sent an e-mail to my senators (Hillary & Chuckie) asking them to end the filibuster of the Estrada nomination. I haven't heard back yet. (I know, you're shocked.) I wonder if they would have responded had I offered them $120.

great email!...Everybody should make a pledge promise to the NRSC if they stand tough and confirm Estrada. If they have the will to force 24 hour debate on a judge, I'm sure they have it for other issues like taxes and supreme court nominees, etc
