Rubber stamp Republican Congress needs to wake up

An excellent idea. Get their attention on the censure resolution. Not that I think they aren't bought and paid for but every lil' bit helps.

From Firedoglake:

The Rubber Stamp Republican Congress is about to get a wake-up call.


For Phase One: The Senate Judiciary Committee will be holding more hearings on the illegal domestic NSA spying without a warrant on Tuesday. They will also be holding hearings on Sen. Russ Feingold’s censure resolution on Friday. We’d like to get their attention, and let them know that illegal actions of the President and upholding the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are issues about which Americans care deeply.

So here is what we want you to do:

We’re headed back to the FAX machines this morning. Please take some time to FAX the members of the Judiciary Committee and let them know how you feel about this issue.

But start with the following header, in big type, across the top of your missive:

U.S. Constitution: Do Not Shred

Big thanks to Digby for brainstorming on that one. I love it — it says everything in one neat, little phrase, doesn’t it?
