I sure hope they DON'T read them before forwarding!LOL
This is a win/win situation. Either Alito is confirmed or we get to see the nuclear option.

I don't think they have the votes, either, but I sure enjoy having fun at their expense.

I sent this one:
Vote for Alito
Samuel Alito's judicial temperament is exactly the type our Republic needs to reign in the Judiciary.
Think of the three branches of our government as:
- Paper {Legislature}
- Scissors {Executive}
- Rock {Judicial}
The "Rock" of the judiciary has grown to a giant boulder.
The "Paper" of the Legislature is but a mere Post-It note.
You are in the Legislative branch, grow a pair and give the exceptions clause some exercise!
Our Founding Dada did not design the SCOTUS to be a super legislature.

I believe that I screwed up, and that the other one is the duplicate.

OK, as a fairly new FReeper (about one year), I will certainly listen to a FReeper veteran. Why not?

Done.
Samuel Alitos record is clear, and there is no threat posed by his nomination:
The filibuster is not a tool to be used trivially. Alito is not a threat. Stand up for your Senate, stand up for the Constitution, and stand up for we, the people. I ask you NOT to filibuster Samuel Alitos nomination to the United States Supreme Court.

My apologies - - I leapt before I looked.
I thought the recommendation was to fax GOP Senators, but obviously the recommendation was to fax the rats. Sounds like a good idea to me.

To: Purrcival
Hee hee. I hope the fax goes through.
I put "Confirm Alito" as the subject line, then wrote:
Samuel Alitos record is clear (he is a competent, thoughtful jurist), and so is the threat posed by his nomination: The Democrats will continue to feel powerless and impotent. But will flexing the filibuster muscle actually show that the Dems have a spine? Or will it confirm for most Americans that the Dems are hopeless obstructionists and can do nothing but oppose Bush at every step? My guess is the latter.
Senate Democrats treated Judge Alito shamefully during his confirmation hearings (ask Sen. Byrd). They should not bring further scorn upon themselves by filibustering a vote on a jurist of Samuel Alito's caliber.

Here's what I just sent:
DO NOT Fillibuster Alito
If you are opposed to Alito's confirmation, then vote NO on the confirmation. If you are in favor or Alito's confirmation, then vote YES on the confirmation.
Our forefathers fought to the death to create a representative democracy, so the people's votes could be heard. Your job it to vote, yes or no, not pull parlimentary tricks to avoid voting at all, because you are afraid of losing.
If you are unwilling to do your constitutional duty and vote AS THE PEOPLE IN YOUR STATE wish you to vote, then we will vote ourselves - to replace you with someone who takes their oath of office seriously, and won't play partisan games with it.
