OK DU'ers
Lets get busy and call 1-800-839-5276 and ask for Kerry, Boxer, Obama, Biden, Dodd and thank them for standing for truth. Maybe Obama needs to hear from us also, to let him know that this is what we expect our strong Senators to do. They was working for truth today. If you can think of any others that I missed, please add to the list.

1. Biden voted yes.
That's not what I expect our senators to do. Actions speak louder than words.

Kerry and Boxer deserve thank you calls. Not the others.

3. Yes I understand that Kerry and Boxer was the only to vote no,
but one thing to think about is that all of the comments that Biden, Obama, and so on stated today WERE TELEVISED. The media blackout has not allowed the comments to the general public be heard until now. I urged them to stop passing along b*shes agenda.

6. The leading voice type Democrats will get
MSM attention if they unite, stand together and speak for the people of their party. I'm not at all satisfied with cookie crumbs. Maybe I'm in need of a time-out but thats how I slant on the issue.

7. Yes, it's good that comments against Rice were heard,
however, what good does it do to say the equivalent of you don't deserve to be confirmed, but I will confirm you?

Actions speak louder than words.

2. I just called Dodd and asked him to change his roll call vote to a
no. I also asked that he support any filibuster. I hope he does.

4. thanks...I feel that when they are going in the right direction
we should acknowledge their efforts so that they continue to feel that they have the support of their citizens. I encourage them to vote no on Condi.

Psychology. Not exactly my preference for influencing a democracy, but, since we, in the condition that we are in; it will have to serve until we can get them into a more "analytic" approach.
