GOP Reps Won't Budge Unless We Scare The SHIT Out Of Them. Personally.

[TheMastersNemesis]

I do not know how we do it but GOPPERS have to scared shitless over ACA repeal. You would hope they would listen. I see little sign they will at this point based on the votes already cast. I also see no signs based on how they are acting in their districts.

Coffman in Colorado as well as all the other GOPPER legislatros will run and hide. They will have ONLY private secured meetings where only they have their rabid supporters. They will just stay in their gated communities or country clubs.

They won't associate with regular "rabble". They view critics and protesters as no more than planted thugs. In the end they will vote for repeal no matter how much protest. They are in a "See evil, hear no evil, speak no evil," mode with hands over ears and eyes shut.

Yes I am cynical. I have every reason to be just being around some GOPPERS I know. They don't like ACA even if they have it. We live in a very twisted time where reality and fact mean absolutely nothing at all.

1. CALL!

2. Yes A Very Good Start.

GOPPERS have most likely turned their phones off. That is ok because they still cannot ignore the fact that if they turn anything on it will melt.

4. Ditto!

Look up their contact page for local numbers. If the vmail at the office closest to you is full, try another office. Put your Congresscritters on your cell phone. I like to write out what I'm going to say before I call. Be courteous, but passionate! Once you write it out, you just as well mail it, too. Send snail mail to local offices, not DC. Security ties up mail in DC for weeks. Post on their FB/Twitter accounts, too.

The only time Congress listens to We The People is when We The People speak out in volumes.

3. Constituents need to mass in their offices. Daily, if possible. And register/educate voters.

5. Watch the video of Rep Cathy in Spokane.

She was probably wondering why so many people turned out for her event.

Crowd let her know real quick why they were there.

6. those who are up for re-election

should be warned that they will not be if they don't do the peoples work. Just keep on calling them. McConnell should get calls everyday.

8. They Are Not Worried They Control The Vote And Who Counts It.

By 2018 they will control the election process so well they cannot lose.

9. Your defeatism is lethal. Peddle it elsewhere. AG Holder and Obama will be working on this issue.

Supposedly the next DNC chair will be working on it. Congressional Democrats/Schumer BETTER be working on it.

Please don't spread your toxic defeatism here on DU.

[bdamomma]

10. yes I would agree defeatism

is here on DU. We shall rise and never do this

7. Forcing them into their private hidey-holes is a victory

If they can't enjoy their time out in the sunshine and have to retreat and hide, it's a very big deal.

We're depriving them of the joy it gives them to shove their arrogance up our noses. Keeping them on the run is important.
