WTF is it with these senators?
I called Landrieu's office, they don't give a shit.

I called the DNC, they listened and were polite, then they put me through to the chairmans office and I got voice mail.

I called Reid's office and they didn't want to hear it, cut me off rather quickly.

WTF is with these god damned people!

I'm trying to stay of the mind that something is cooking behind the scenes, but when I call these jerk offs I don't have much hope!

Keep calling though, I will! But why the hell can't they get on the same page??? Keep money from them if you have too. Tell them they will get minimal support by the DNC in the next run or someone else will run against them in a primary. Do whatever the fuck needs to be done!

sorry for the language! but that's how I am feeling right now!

1. they are probably sick of hearing from us
and the other side, and our tempers, which are getting shorter by the hour!

2. Telling them you will cut off donations is a great idea
Hit them where it counts! In the pocketbook!

3. Hey...my senator's office has threatened me with legal action
as they say I'm always harassing, threatening and trying to intimidate them. Both offices, my local and in DC. He's a dem that acts like a neo-con so I've got no where to go for help.

9. Bill Nelson, FL
Probably more his office, his staffers, his legal team, his handlers, etc. rather than the senator himself.

10. Not only is it your right, but it's your duty to harass them
Tell them to read the constitution.

5. Pardon me?
They say that you harass them???? Isn't that what they are there for? If they don't want to listen to the constituency, what the heck are they running for?


That's just ridiculous.

11. I called the local office and they were polite
I also called Senator Reid's Nevada office and got right through. I gave up on the DC numbers because I rarely through.
