The administration is at it again talking about a 45 day delay so they can brief congressmen and senators on this UAE deal. PLEASE! PLEASE! everyone call your senators and congressmen because i see some of them caving in to the administration on this. they are good at PR this administration.

1. I don't think the Dems will cave this time.
If all the Repubs line up, then the deal will go through. But the Dems won't go along with this one.

5. You may be right
He's a lost cause.

If I were a Dem, I'd be salivating in anticipation of running against an Repug who backs this deal.

:hi: Welcome to DU, btw.

6. I called both Senators today, they were keeping a tally.
People need to call and keep the pressure on, that this deal is unacceptable, and it doesn't hurt to mention that it's a huge losing issue for the GOP.

Senators and Reps want to hear from you, to know that they have voter support that gives them the cover to stick their neck out on controversial issues.

While you're on the phone, mention that you don't want to see the Illegal Domestic Spying issue just swept under the rug, either.
