Ooops, thought I was editing this, but it came up as a new topoic...will fix with another topic. Mea culpa.

Okay, Sig gave me material to put up a proper post. Call your Senators to ask for real health care reform. http://pol.moveon.org/virtualmarch10/action.html?rc=homepage He put it in another thread I'd started about the public option, but it's important enough to have its own thread.

I'm looking at the link, and the numbers are going up at an amazing speed! I'm getting busy signals at both my Senators' offices, but I'm not giving up...AND you can contact their local office in your state, too. Go to http://www.congress.org/congressorg/dbq/officials/ pick your state, and it will bring up your senators. Pick one, click on it, and it will give you BOTH their Washington office and local office addresses.

GO FOR IT!

Penguin and Pizmo put up these replies before I edited this into a proper post, in case anyone's confused!

Hey, I got through...it was easier to get through to their local office, if anyone wants to know. I know it's a long-distance call, and so many are calling in some places that you can't get through. I see some states only have a few people calling, but in CA it's tough--last I looked 212 were calling!

So I was able to get through to both local offices, and I just got through to Boxer's Washington office, to learn she HAS SIGNED the letter on public option/reconcilliation!!! I called and e-mailed asking why she hadn't yet signed; tickled pink to hear she finally got on the bandwagon!

Feinstein, of course, was on there early, so MY state is covered...how about YOURS?

It's fascinating to watch for a few seconds...they have a little map that shows who's calling at that moment (or so); you can see it coming in from all over the nation. Huzzah! Maybe, just MAYBE, we can be heard?

Well, YOU seem VERY confused, Out2Lunch. You have this notion that you've schooled anyone here on anything - a notion which you've utterly and completely failed to back up with ANY evidence.

Whip out that radar expertise, boy! Where's that "proof" of how I tried to have you banned?

And why do you run away every single time I bring it up?
