[ChairmanAgnostic]

3. after 12 minutes on hold, I got the White House

They were very polite. (so was I)
I demanded nicely that we get a public option now, and that our country's future depends on this fix.

The only question they had (my ID gave them my name) was do I support reconciliation.
I responded yes, and she promised to get the word to the right people. Apparently, the numbers are huge, and all in favor of PO!

Thanks for doing this folks!

4. Done.

5. Virtual March

There's a huge Virtual March happening today to make sure Congress passes real health care reform. I joined, and told my representative/senators it's time to get health care reform done. The goal is to generate a million messages to Congress TODAY - and we need your help to get there.

Will you join me and sign up for the Virtual March? Just click here:

11. Yay! Glad to see MoveOn flexing its muscles (in the right way) again!

Great seeing how many are calling in each state. Here in New Mexico, couldn't get through to Bingaman, but will keep trying. Udall's office was very polite and wanted all my info.

Next the White House.

7. done. I'm hoping my republican senator will show the courage like he did for the jobs bill, so I

even pleaded with Sen Voinovich!

[WHEN CRABS ROAR]

8. Four phone calls, seven emails. Keep it up!

[hwmnbn]

9. Six attempts and every time the message says...

"We are experiencing a high volume of calls. Please try again later."

BOOYAH!! And this is three calls to each senator so they are BOTH getting swamped.

I'll keep trying.
