Subject: Great news: the Dems are digging in
Date: February 12, 2003
Dear MoveOn member,
Sorry to be contacting you twice today, but we have great news.
Responding to thousands of our calls, Democrats have just launched
a filibuster* to prevent the confirmation of Miguel Estrada to
America's second-highest court. This filibuster is the first sign
of real resistance to extremism in Congress and the White House.
We’ve got to support this filibuster.
Please call your Senators now.
If your Senator is a Democrat, say:
"Thank you for supporting the filibuster to block the Estrada
nomination. Please speak out on the Senate floor."
If your Senator is a Republican, say:
"Please support the filibuster to block the Estrada nomination."
If you are asked why you support the filibuster, make some of the
following points in your own words:
- Estrada has hidden his views on the law from the public;
- Estrada has a reputation as a right-wing extremist;
- The Senate must be informed to advise and consent on nominations.
Please let us know you're making your calls, at:

The filibuster is a bold move -- playing the Senate's ultimate ace --
and bold moves carry big risks. This filibuster is now the battle line
on which everything we care about depends. Republicans will make every
effort to peel Dems away from the filibuster.
If they succeed, we're screwed. It's that simple. If the Dems cave
in here, the right wing will steamroller us on every issue, gutting
environmental protections, giving enormous new tax breaks to the rich
while the economy tanks, and eviscerating our civil rights.
But if the filibuster succeeds, it will be a resounding victory, giving
us a real chance to protect the things that matter to us. It could
even embolden the Democrats to challenge the White House's war plans.
Six weeks ago, nobody thought we'd get this far. Yet more than
18,000 MoveOn members have called since last week in support of the
filibuster. Hundreds of us vistited Senate offices a month ago.
Senators are telling each other what a difference MoveOn is making.
Our work is paying off and we've got to keep it up.
Please make your calls today. Please call again, even if you've called
before.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
--The MoveOn Team

The GOP needs to ask voters in the 2004 Election cycle whether they'd prefer to have a President and Congress that takes their marching orders from rich liberals in Hollywood or a President and Congress that takes it's marching orders from the people of this country.
Here's another way to hit Hollywood where it hurts. Do not watch the Oscars on March 23rd. Advertisers will not be pleased and ratings will go down. Send a message to Hollywood once and for all. Power to the "Little People"
Martin Sheen and his cronies could be throwing all that money into a better cause such as our schools and medical research.
