We can kill this thing in the House, again, if we swamp them with phone calls and letters. Show up at their stupid town meetings. Call their local offices (not DC) and get a few of your friends to do call, too. Tell your friends to get their friends to call.
Call local talk radio.
When the droids from the RNC or any of their related paid beggars call, tell them why you're not going to give them a single dime. One thing these bastards understand is money drying up.
Come on my friend, you of all people should understand that while you're still breathing you're still fighting or at least you should be.
This monstrosity hasn't passed yet and if enough of us, and it sure seems like there are enough of us, yell, kick, and scream our Reps will do the right thing and kill this thing like they did the last time.
Never give up.
Never give in.
Never admit defeat.
I don't mean to be presumptious, but I'm sure you heard the droning voice of some sadistic Master Chief in BUDS repeating over and over again "Don't give up....don't give up...." as you were slogging along some beach tired, wet, hungry and cold.
Well I'll bet your conditions are somewhat more comfortable now so there's no excuse for someone with your training, background, and abilities to just toss in the towel and walk away.
We need you my friend, and we need you very, very badly.
"Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? HELL NO. Well it aint over now...."
