Just got an email from Chris Dodd re: Reid ignoring hold

[MiniMe]

Are you willing to go to the mat to restore the Constitution?

Just last night, we heard there are plans to disregard Senator Dodd's intention to place a hold on a FISA bill that includes amnesty for telecommunications companies.

That would be a pretty extraordinary move, but Chris Dodd has pledged to stop this horrible bill any way he can.

So if the hold is not honored, he is prepared to go to the Senate floor and filibuster.

Rolling back the Bush Administration assault on the rule of law has been a major focus of Chris Dodd's work in the Senate -- and it's also a centerpiece in his campaign for President.

Your contribution will help us take our message of restoring the Constitution through the cornfields of Iowa, the streets of New Hampshire, and into the White House.

Democrats were elected to change the course of this country - to restore our security and our values - and for too long Congress has not.

It's time to take a stand.

Your support over the past twenty-four hours has been inspiring -- but with both Republicans AND even a few Democrats pushing back -- Senator Dodd needs it now more than ever.

There is a direct relationship between our diminished standing in the world and the current Administration's assault on the Constitution.

Standing up for the values enshrined in that document doesn't make us more vulnerable ... they make us more secure.

The Senator likes to say that if he is sworn in at noon on January 20, 2009, he'll begin restoring the Constitution by 1 P.M.

You can help get him there right now.

This fight has just begun. We'll be in touch in the coming days with meaningful avenues for participation to make sure we stop this bill.

1. May I suggest sending him a tailored message?

I suggest that anyone supporting his defense of the Constitution send him an immediate campaign donation of $17.76.

I'm sure that would be encouraging to him.

3. Thanks! At least Dodd is listening to the people

10. He's going to FILIBUSTER???? ALRIGHT! Wow! What got into Stark and Dodd?

Maybe they've finally had enough?

[MiniMe]

11. Well, Dodd is trying to move up to at least the 2nd tier and hopefully the

first tier of candidates. But, he is doing it by listening to what people are saying, and I have to give him credit for that. He put this out as a fundraising appeal, but if he is willing to filibuster, I will donate. It is a brilliant move on his part.

[shadowknows69]

20. How freaking sad is it that he's fillibustering against our own party though

WTF Reid. You can step down with Pelosi if you please. Your oath is to the Constitution. At least Dodd realizes that, I don't know who the fuck harry is working for.

[malaise]

12. Don't they have the goods on Harry re some

real estate deal? Fugg Harry!

[MiniMe]

13. Evening kick

[Richard Steele]

14. So, how many of the REPUB "holds" have ever just been IGNORED?

When a Repub puts a "hold", it's end of story. Game over; dead bill.

But a Dem does the same thing, and Reid just ignores it.

FUCK YOU Reid. Fuck you in your backstabbing, B*sh-enabling heart.

[MiniMe]

15. Agree

Just read that Biden will stand with Dodd. May Hillary and Barak be as brave.

[lonestarnot]

17. Good.

[rhett o rick]

16. Anyone know the bill number?? nm
