Yep, I would be one of those "Alipacers" GeorgiaPeach is talking about. :wink:Quote:
working4change, I believe that many Alipacers are busy doing what we are doing but they are not stopping to report their actions.
Between phone calls and emails, I'm also listening in on C-Span. So far I haven't heard one Senator speak out against the bailout. I figured the bailout would pass the U.S. Senate but I was hoping we would at least have a few people speaking out against it. :?
I think the opposition will come up later.
I'm listening to Lou Dobbs and he has Ted Poe on his show.

Ted Poe says that even if this bill passes the Senate, he doesn't believe it will pass the House. He said that all of the ones he talked to who opposed this bill are still holding fast. He also said the calls coming into his office are 9-1 against it.
There sure out there spinning this on FOX...you can tell they know they are going against the American people...and its one lie after another!!
KEEP CALLING I AM HAVING A HARD TIME GETTING THROUGH!!!
working4change, nothing wrong with what you said. I know that there are a few on here regularly giving their updates and actions, and one could wonder where the rest of the world went. But, when we listen to the outside world, we know that many are doing the same things that we are. I understood your question, but wanted to reassure you that the calls, emails, and faxes were there.
Great job that you and everyone are doing.
MW is doing the things that need to be done too. :)
Another multi-task day.
Ephesians 4:32
Phone lines are jammed! But keep trying! Don't let the Losers win!
SoSad, hopefully people will email FOX so they may report on the voices opposed.
I have had a difficult time too and some Congressional websites cannot be accessed for additional office contact information. I am trying to find ways around this by contacting some re-election campaign offices.
Don't forget that Lou Dobbs says you may use his site to access Congressional leaders.

Remember we have a lot of people who lurk in the back ground who don't feel comfortable posting, but I am sure they are calling and one of these days maybe they will feel comfortable enough to post, join in and communicate with us... we can hope!!
Yes and you can leave a message at their home offices, I have had to do that too! :lol:Quote:

It sounds like they have all been brainwashed. Every one of them is talking about how this will effect 'main street' America. Every ONE of them. This is just so arrogant. Instead of listening to the will of the people and representing us, they are ALL saying they know what is best for us! Makes me so mad!!!
I almost threw up watching Dodd spew his lies

That doesn't mean we give up. Keep the pressure on. We can't stop now. Even if we lose this one, we could still prevail with the House.Quote:

**********************
Hello, On Monday, September 29, 2008, the United States House of Representatives defeated a bill to bailout Wall Street by a margin of 228 to 205. This bill was flawed from its inception by requiring taxpayers to pick up $700 billion of questionable mortgage backed securities. Many of the same goals can be accomplished by other means for far less cost. Take a look at our alternative -
The Main Street Rescue Plan.
Congress will be voting on a revised Wall Street Bailout Plan as early as October 1, 2008. If you believe that Congress should be focusing on Main Street first, then please click here to send an email to your elected officials telling them you don’t want the government spending billions of dollars on bad loans.
Thanks for your time,
Editor@PerotCharts.com
*****************
Lynne, don't lose heart even though we are hearing from those who want this bail out. The media is cooperating and we just have to work the back channels for a different outcome.
Serenanocturna, could you post Ross Perot's alternative plan on the board please? Maybe you did already and I have not checked. Thank you. That is another plan that we could send to lawmakers as the message above says.
Ephesians 4:32
It ain't over until the fat lady sings and I don't hear her yet!!!! KEEP CALLING DON'T LET THESE GUYS STOP YOU UNTIL THE GAVEL COMES DOWN, AND THEN WE STILL HAVE THE HOUSE!!
The screen is saying that the debate is over and they will bring up the amendments next. Let's see how this plays out.
KEEP CALLING! LIKE SOSAD SAID, IT AIN'T OVER YET!

It's not that they're deaf, it's the same thing as last summer with the Amnesty bill: the Imperial Senate doesn't give a flip about their constituents, because they have 6 year terms & so can comfortably ignore us! So it's got to be the House that is the last line of defense against these abuses of our Constitution & way of life.
Remember that when you select your HOUSE members!! 8O
YOU GOT THAT RIGHT SOSAD>>>THESE PEOPLE HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING YET!!!!!Call call call I have had lots of busy lines and have been on hold for awhile before ever getting to them. I got all the time in the world to call and call and call :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: NEVER GIVE UP NEVER BACK DOWNQuote:
