TIME TO CONTACT CONGRESS. NOT THAT IT WILL HELP MUCH BUT YA' NEVER KNOW!
Vanity ^ | 6 11 2015 | Dick Bachert

Posted on 06/11/2015 10:09:29 AM PDT by Dick Bachert

Today, I'm sending this to the Georgia delegation in D.C. I'd urge you to do something similar for YOUR state's guys. Time grows short, people. Very short! (The links to the House and Senate web addys are below.)

Since his elevation to the office, Obama has made crystal clear his hatred for America and all she once represented. He and Jarrett have done all they can to weaken and ultimately destroy this nation.

I write to you with a very simple message:

While my specific interest at the moment is the sovereignty destroying so-called Fast Track Trade measure, until he is out of office, I INSIST that you VIGOROUSLY OPPOSE any legislation offered by or SUPPORTED by this White House or any of his Democrat flunkies in Congress on the basis that if Obama and Jarrett support it, it is WRONG for this country and is without question designed to further weaken and destroy us and our freedoms!

By return email, please tell me if there is any part of this message you do not understand!

Dick Bachert, Georgia

PS: If you vote for ANY legislation BEFORE you have read it, the growing number of sane and very angry voters out here will remember on election day.

(If you can't or won't take the time to plow through the forms these guys have devised to keep riff raff like us from "bothering" them, the number for the Capitol switchboard is 202-224-3121.

Give one of their staffers a piece of your mind verbally. Be polite but remember they are SUPPOSED to work for us, the folks who pay them. Yeah, right!)

Every responsible citizen should have his representative’s and both senators’ direct office numbers on speed dial.

I called our congresswoman this morning (a Texas Republican with a Conservative Review grade of F) to register strong opposition to the TPA bill. All lines were busy for several minutes before I got through so I’m hoping that’s a good sign. Anyway all we can is fight to the bitter end on this.

I called and had everyone I know call. If we melt the phone lines, there’s a chance.

I have senator McWeasal for one of my senators, he doesn’t even respond to my emails anymore and he is bought and paid for by the Chamber of Crony Fascism. The other is Rand “wet your finger and stick it in the wind” Paul so you never know what you will get with him.

My Congress creature is Hal “I wanna be the next Robert the Porkster Byrd” Rogers, again on the so-called leadership team and bought and paid for by the fascist Chamber. Essentially they ignore their constituents until election season.

Called mine this morning, Hard line vote for TPA, aid tried to give me the run around on how it can be changed if its a bad deal (a patent lie). Told them if she votes for it I will vote against her no matter what.

Just to be clear, fast-track is not a secret. Here is the bill:

https://www.congress.gov/114/bills/hr1314/BILLS-114hr1314eas.pdf

And the Senate already voted (and approved it), so focus your efforts on the House.

Senate votes are here:

Mr. Limbaugh is very conspicuous by his absence today. In the past his efforts have managed to melt the phone lines and stop several bad things from happening. I suspect that the timing of this particular vacation is no accident.

Amendment10 :" "PS: If you vote for ANY legislation BEFORE you have read it, ..."

I just called my Congressman in Washington and found out that he hasn't read the TransPacific Partnership Act, but is opposed to the legislation, furthermore,
he is opposed to any "Fast Track" by this , or any other administration.
This represents only my second call ever to my Congressman, as in the past, I have remained quiet and part of the 'silent-majority'
but changes are necessary for this country to remain viable, and be alive as a republic !

We’re finding out who in the GOP Barky has blackmailed. I suspect they are Hasert-like situations too.

I called mine yesterday, Kelly, PA3. The roboanswerer insisted that all the bills allowed for Rep review of particular details of deals, and that Kelly haas been down to the secret room and had read everything. I was told these bills had national security ixmplications so they could not be made public before the vote. BUT, the details would be public after the vote. I told him he speaks with a forked tongue and out of both sides of his mouth very well.

TPA is not bad, apparently. TPP is.

Probably. But MY bottom line is if obozo, the Dems and the RINOS like it, there’s a “Screw America” element in there somewhere.
