Reply #9: I agree with you and it's working

I take part in all sorts of e-mail campaigns to all and sundry, but the other day I found one that made me think twice. Starting 8/19, Ascroft is traveling all over the country, looking for support for his USA Patriot Act and his proposed expansions of it.:-(

I have contacted my senators and congressman to oppose the Patriot Act on numerous occasions. I know that they must receive thousands of e-mails and faxes, so I never worried about it before. I even received a letter from my freeper congressman in which he told me the reasons he supports it.:grr:

When Voice4Change asked me to send an e-mail directly to Ashcroft, I thought twice about it. Maybe my freeper mother isn't so far off the mark when she warns me that the CIA is going to show up at the door, who knows? I finally did send the e-mail, but really toned down my ``optional text.''
:scared:

If you have the courage to e-mail Ashcroft, here's the link. The more, the merrier.:-)
