Yesterday I called up the Senate to support the Censure motion. I was actually happy to find that I couldn't get through to Senator Feinstein, Kerry or Feingold as their lines were too busy. I did speak with the staffer with Senator Graham (who has publically doubted the legallity of the NSA program) and finally Senator Reid's Office.
After making my point, as ask him just what kind of calls they had been receiving and whether the all volume was exceedingly high or not (compared to say the Alito Confirmation Calls). His reponse was that the call volume was about equal to Alito, but that they were receiving a variety of responses.
- 1) Support for Senator Feingold's Censure Resolution.
2) Opposition to Censure because it would hinder the War on Terror and let Al Qaeda communicate freely within the U.S.
I have to ask myself, who put forth position 2? Who the hell are these people who are trapped in this Red-State of Mind?
