PLEASE CALL Bill Frist's number at (202) 224-3344 (they may switch you to a "comment line", and leave the following message:
Senator Frist, congratuations on the tremendous victory for the Republican Party. My name is _____ from ______-and my phone number is _______. I have been one of the volunteers working hard to help accomplish this great victory.. spending a lot of my own money and time. Americans have sent a strong message that we want a conservative Supreme Court bench. We want conservative federal judges. And we have a strong mandate for you to accomplish that task. Please don't let us down. The appointments we make in the next few years will have a resounding affect on our future. Please do not appoint Sen Specter to head a judiciary committee. Look for stronger conservative leadership in this position. You have the right.. and the will of the people as permission to do so. And again, congratulations.
Also, remember that we should NEVER be angry or threatening, especially to people on our own side. So congratulate, be upbeat, postive, victorious and reassuring!
And pass this info on to everyone else you know!
Add me!
Please add me to your ping list.

Go for it. Keep me informed of every detail.
Glad to see some traction. The bright lights of talk radio need to shine on Specter and his vision of liberal judicial activism. We can not allow this back-stabber in position of power over these nominations. We really need Rush and Brit to get on board.
Majority Leader Frist,
Please do NOT allow Senator Specter to become leader of the Judiciary Committee.
These comments were made by Senator Specter yesterday, as reported by (http://www.philly.com)
Specter, as presumptive chairman of the powerful Senate Judiciary Committee, suggested that he would block any Bush nominee to the Supreme Court who opposed abortion rights. Reiterating his position that a woman's right to choose is "inviolate," he said overturning Roe v. Wade today would be akin to trying to reverse Brown v. Board of Education, the court's 1954 landmark desegregation decision.
"If you have a race that is won by a percent or two, you have a narrowly divided country, and that's not a traditional mandate," he said. "President Bush will have that very much in mind."
"The number-one item on my agenda is to try to move the party to the center," Specter said. "I want to focus on the politics of inclusion."
I believe this country wants to move more to the right. We must take this opportunity that has presented itself by holding the Democrats feet to the fire and continue to push the agenda of LIFE!
Putting Senator Specter as head of the Judiciary would stymie and, to use one of Sec. Def. Rumsfeld's words, slog the Judicial appointment process.
Since Senator Specter has clearly stated that he has a "LITMUS TEST" (Roe Vs. Wade should stay) I hope this helps you see that Senator Specter is NOT the right man for the Head of the Judiciary committee.
I believe, as does President Bush, that we must project a culture of life not a culture of death.
I'll leave you with a question to ponder.......
"How do you teach a child to be responsible and accept consequences of their actions in life when you teach them that life can be eviscerated in the womb and there is no longer a responsibility to care for life?"
XXXXXXX
Have you seen the extent of Bush country in PA?

Well, the only way to get Frist to act is to put as much pressure on him as possible. If we do nothing, you are right, Frist will allow Specter to become Chairman. Frist will only act if lots of pressure is applied.
My gut is that the only way Specter will be denied Judiciary is if someone with more seniority wants it. Who would that be, I wonder?
Who's got Frist's email address?
JimB is so much more solicitous than I.
Looks like your post is a quotation. Of what?

I just called and all Frist's lines are busy.
I tend to see his statement as a feint--by positioning himself as a "moderate" he takes on enormous credibility with the media. If Spector supports a nominee, it will really take the wind out of the liberal's sails.
