Dear ones: UPDATED TOLL FREE Capitol Hill Switchboard numbers here

[calimary]

Guys - the list needed updating - one deleted, one added:

1-800 862-5530

1-800 828-0498

1-800 614-2803

1-866 340-9281

1-866 338-1015

1-866 220-0044


Very useful for hounding the House Judiciary Committee regarding Dennis Kucinich's HR333 to IMPEACH cheney, and other worthwhile causes!

[calimary]

1. BTW, in case this sinks fast, I've updated the numbers in my sig line, too.

Let's ROLL!

[annabanana]

2. Bookmarked. . k&rr!. . . .thanks. . . eom

[calimary]

5. Thanks!

Every so often, these numbers change. The xxx-xxx-6437 number recently went south, and then I found another one that I tried out successfully. We all should have the latest ones at our fingertips. I know it's saved me on my phone bill.

3. Thanks!

Bookmarked!

[calimary]

8. Good! When I can, I try to make a small handful of calls -

in the case of Dennis Kucinich's HR333 to IMPEACH cheney, for example, it'd involve House members because this immediately affects House of Reps business.

So here, in this case, it'd be three: A) Conyers. B) Kucinich. C) Your own. Doesn't matter whether he/she is a D or an r. BOTH SIDES need to hear this, and to have it ground into every pore of their skin all day long. Besides, I rather like the idea of calling into the enemy camp, and giving them perhaps a little clearer idea of how the walls are closing in on them.

4. Thank you!

Nominated.

[calimary]

10. So's yours!

Guys - this one's worth it, too!

6. What A Nice Subject Line

K & R

[calimary]

11. Well, I mean it!

You guys ARE dear to me. Since 2001, this place has helped to keep me sane when it seemed as though all the rest of America was losing its collective mind, soul, and conscience. I feel lucky to have found DU. I'm much smarter, well-informed, and articulate because of the postings, links, rants, debates, resources, and support from people here.

This isn't just a website, it's a think tank. And it's a public service. And a life preserver!

[Lone_Star_Dem]

7. Thank you.

Jotted them down and I'm now giving you a K&R.


Edit icky typo. :P

[calimary]

12. I found that a 3x5 index card was pretty handy for these.

Or a post-it note, although an index card is sturdier.

I keep it by the phone. Actually, by a couple of phones.

9. You are a Dear, calimary!

[lonestarnot]

17. K & R

[calimary]

20. Cheers! Visualize an avalanche of phone calls...

More phone calls than birdshot pellets in cheney's hunting partner's face...

:rofl:

In another post I also said - more phone calls than there are sins on cheney's soul, but then again, Stephen Hawking himself couldn't fathom a number that big.

[lonestarnot]

25. More phone calls than Stephen Hawking could fathom woot!

[bobthedrummer]

19. Thanks k&r

[calimary]

21. A pleasure!

It's a good way to kick other people's critically important thread, too!

:toast:

[senseandsensibility]

22. Thanks for including them in your sig line!

:hi:

[calimary]

23. Well, I figure I mouth off enough around here that a lot of people will

see 'em that way.

:toast:

[senseandsensibility]

32. And you do it in such a "nice" way, too.

Not a hint of nagging. Another kick for ya.

[calimary]

33. Thank you!

But I feel like a horrendous nag sometimes. Oh well...

For some reason, you made me think of this saying that a friend of mine tacks onto the end of every email. She's a PR person:


"He who has a thing to sell,
And goes and whispers in a well,
Is not as apt to make the dollars,
As he who climbs a tree and hollers"
-Claudia duPreez, Dreamcatcher Marketing


I've always liked that one. AND there's the one my dad regarded as kind of a personal manifesto:

"FORMULA FOR SUCCESS:

Late to bed,
Early to rise,
Work like hell,
And ADVERTISE!"

He had it plaqued and hung it on his office wall.

[bobthedrummer]

27. kick

[calimary]

29. Thanks, my friend!

I posted this on one of YOUR threads:

Remember what Howard Dean said - that the only way we lose is if we give up!
BTW - if you get unsatisfactory results with the TOLL FREE numbers, consider trying her locally. Yes, I realize that one would be a long distance call. Every now and then it sometimes is necessary. For example, I've found the best way to get through to Harry Reid's office is to call one of his Nevada offices. Same thing, sometimes, with John Conyers.
