President Obama is doing a SIX DAY BLITZ to push his budget...

[polichick]

He's out there doing town halls, TV shows and a primetime speech next Tuesday ~ he's counting on PUBLIC SUPPORT to get his/our agenda passed.

Here's what he's asking of us:

PLEASE CALL YOUR REPS ASAP ~ and SIGN UP so you'll get future ACTION requests!


(I'm not giving up until DUers make as many calls as they make posts!!!)

[Wetzelbill]

1. He'll get it done

I am confident of that.

[polichick]

2. Not without us - especially with Bayh's group acting as obstructionists...

The push Obama is making is supposed to involve him AND us ~ the more calls voters make to their representatives, the better.

[FrenchieCat]

3. I'm on it!

Thanks!

[polichick]

4. Thank you! Spread the word - we can't let Bayh and his group derail things.

[FrenchieCat]

5. Notice the excitement this thread is receiving?

Let's kick it!

[SemiCharmedQuark]

6. I sent an email to Bayh. Asshole. We'll see if he responds.

[polichick]

9. Thanks! You'll have to let us know if he does respond. I mentioned...

...in my message to Sen. Casey that I hoped rumors of his involvement weren't true.

[Wetzelbill]

10. my rep will vote for it

My senators, not a chance in hell. :)

[SemiCharmedQuark]

11. Who are you rsenators?

[Wetzelbill]

12. My senators?

Kyl and McCain.

My rep is Gabby Giffords. I'll probably just give her a call to make sure though.

[SemiCharmedQuark]

14. Blah!

[polichick]

15. Can't hurt - my guy is Patrick Murphy, also a big supporter...

...but I called anyway ~ he's still on board. Our calls give them political cover if nothing else.

[fugop]

21. Is he...

Is Murphy that serviceman who did a lot of face time on behalf of Obama during the primaries/GE? I kinda liked what little I saw of him. What do you think his future prospects are?

[polichick]

22. That's him, a great guy and strong Obama supporter...

I've spoken to him many times, marched in parades with him, etc., and he's a very bright and authentic person ~ one I believe is in it for all the right reasons. He's well loved here and I think he'll go far. Haven't asked him what his plans are though.

[vaberella]

35. My Reps are voting...I'm a New Yorker..woohoo...

I may have my probs with Rangel but he gets the job done.

[stillcool]

7. OMG! Make a phone call?

surely you jest!

[polichick]

8. Lol - I know you're already fully engaged! :)

[Beetwasher]

13. Going Around Under And Through

The traditional media and their GOP allies.

They are about to get a hard lesson on the way things work now.

[polichick]

18. Hope so - we have to remind them that the President is not standing alone!

[ClarkUSA]

16. Wow... a positive action thread trying to get things done. What a concept.

K&R.

27. One of my senators sez that during the stimulus debate--
