Check out my e-mail from the White House! Looky-looky!
I signed a petition (on pro-choice America action network website) regarding the medical privacy issue--apparently it went directly to the white house. This is what I got back from them--


Thank you for e-mailing President Bush. Your ideas and comments are very
important to him.

Because of the large volume of e-mail received, the President cannot
personally respond to each message. However, the White House staff
considers and reports citizen ideas and concerns.

In addition to President@WhiteHouse.gov, we have developed White House Web
Mail, an automated e-mail response system. Please access
http://www.whitehouse.gov/webmail to submit comments on a specific issue.

Additionally, we welcome you to visit our website for the most up-to-date
information on current events and topics of interest to you.


Um, yeah...right--thank you. Like they give a shit that I don't want him to take away women's right to choose. Now I've probably been added to some list of dissenters in the states--lovely.

2. I've gotten these automatic responses, many times
In fact, I just got one back from them, tonight, on the same issue. Don't worry about it. I've even e-mailed John Ashcroft, and have a friend who has actually written him, and we've lived to tell the tale.:-)

3. "an automated e-mail response system"
In other words nobody is reading their email, a computer just sends an automated response.

5. I wasn't worried, before, since I truly believed that the Bush* cabal
was history. But my friend just asked me if I thought we were on some list. Her sister hopes to take in a foster child, so she wonders if she might be an impediment, since she frequently babysits. I told her that I thought that there are just too damn many of us to keep track of, but I still feel uneasy.:shrug:
