the DCCC, and from Jon Carson & Lindsay Siler with OFA, and from Nancy Pelosi and Debbie Wasserman Schultz with the DNC? I get them every day. And I'm sending them back with fairly nasty e-mails about Obama proposing the chained CPI in his budget. Every chance I get I e-mail, and call.
I'm still so outraged by the whole thing, and I feel helpless. Like a few e-mails are going to change the course of this despicable act. Obama knew it wasn't popular. Obama knew the vast majority of Americans are totally against this. HE KNEW. HE KNOWS. What is it going to do to get another e-mail?
I've been telling all my state and local dem elected officials that Obama is screwing them out of their next election by doing this. Hopefully, the elected dems, THEMSELVES, will put pressure on the party to put pressure on him.
I can't even believe we're having to do this.

(14,087 posts)I hope they care. I don't really think they do, though. I think that they are only concerned with getting MONEY for their campaigns, and they figure that the big boys take care of that, and they try to keep us nobodies scared enough to show up at the polls.

(37,648 posts)I don't think I can reply to the W.H. ones. Don't know if it's an email address you can respond to. I did once, and it didn't bounce back, but I don't know.
I don't read the Brown and Franken ones much any more. They're usu. asking for money. So are the Obama ones.
