twitter your rep, thornberry, says obama.

i just received an email from obama telling me to twitter thornberry. he is the man that represents me. i do not have twitter, i do not want it, but, i have called the office both yesterday and today. this is an office that sits in my town. the woman who answers the phone is my neighbor. not literally, but there is that connection being in the same town. she is the one i run into at the grocery store or at the school

she is the one hearing me say that i recognize the selfishness and harm that my representative is doing to the nation and the 800,000 people unable to pay their mortgage, utilities and feed their children.

i think this was a clever and strong move on obama and staffs part. twitter your congressperson.

i wanted to post the email, but looks like i deleted it.

trust me though, lol, it was good.

i wanted to add. those of us in very red areas do not get much of a chance to do anything. this one though, for those of us in very red, this one is effective to move on.
