times I see comments like 'its useless" or they will not listen anyway when we are urged to call our Senators/ congress-critters/Leaders and urge them to do certain legislation or we want to do something.

Many of us have been Lighting up the phones on Pelosi and Dem staff members offices.
IT is past time to LIGHT UP THE PHONES and emails and letters on the REPUG offices!

I just wrote a hand written letter to my Repug Legislator reminding him of what
I heard on Bill Moyer's Journal last evening----that it was a member of Nixon's own
Party that stood up to Nixon and told him Enough is enough-time to resign. Barry
Goldwater had the courage to do what was right for his country.And I asked him
to do the right thing for his country also.
Monday I will Call his office also!

I also sent him a link to the show and this quote:
"Impeachment Isn't A Constitutional Crisis; It's The Cure For A Constitutional Crisis!"

Watch and listen at:

Of course you should call your Dem congress-critters also but Repugs NEED to
KNOW your thoughts also. Please.

Faxing seems to be the most effective way to get a hard copy in their hands, as against their
interns' phone notes. You can hand write/print your message, with appropriate illustrations and
emphasis; the fax machine doesn't care what it's transmitting/receiving. All are fax numbers.

House Speaker Pelosi: Speaker's office; 202-225-8259
Rep. Pelosi: her CA-08 office in DC; 202-225-3304 (or...often no pickup...202-225-4188)
Rep. John Conyers: 202-225-0072
Rep. Henry Waxman: 202-225-4099 (Comm. 202-225-4784)

Majority Leader Harry Reid: 202-224-7327
Sen. Charles Schumer: 202-228-3027
Sen. Pat Leahy: 202-224-3479 (Judiciary Comm. 202-224-9516)

As I understand it, the House impeaches (indicts), the Senate tries (convicts or acquits.) In the case of inherent contempt by Harriet Myers, urge Conyers on this. Meirs unlocks the Pandora's Box, or lies and goes to jail. Let's give the Sergeant-At-Arms something to pass the time!
Pelosi has GOT to be getting the message! DarkSyde first, then Gonzo, then the prince of BFEE.
Their oaths of office demand this!
