FILIBUSTER!!! finally

Today I called Senator Harry Reid's Washington office, but his lines were jammed. Could not get thru. So all I had left was to call my Texas Senators, their staff picked up pretty quickly at both their San Antonio and Washington offices.

I had two concerns I wanted passed on to my Senators:

1-Vote yes on Senate Amendment 2022 (SB 2022) of H.R. 1585. This is the Habeas Corpus Restoration Act of 2007.

2-Please start speaking more about the war. I encouraged my senators to stop ending debate and go thru with what they are really doing, which is filibustering.

Its definitely what my two republican senators have been told to do, which is to stop legislation from getting thru the senate, any legislation. I dont think they actually wanted to filibuster the old fashioned way, but they made the bed.

Sadly I've become convinced that Cornyn and Hutchison never had any say in their votes involving the war. They were ruberstamps for the worst president ever. They cant take back their votes and now they don't have the guts to stand up to Cheney. Disappointing to see these two loyal Bushies not giving a damn about the damage done in our standing as a beacon of democracy, of human rights, of freedom.
