This is a call to arms.
Rush Limbaugh has flooded the Senate switchboard with Dittoheads who want the stimulus to fail. Well, I have spent the last 2 hours trying to voice my own opinion to my own Senators and guess what… The lines has been busy. It is especially frustrating for those of us who have new Senators who don’t have precinct/district offices yet.
We have seen this tactic before from the GOP: PHONE JAMMING.
I want Limbaugh investigated for an intentional, concerted effort at denying my (and your) Freedom of Speech.
If anyone has ANY information about this scenario, please leave it in the comments: tips, quotes from Rush about clogging the lines, opinions on the legality of denying people’s right to speak with their elected officials, contact information for people to call and register a complaint. Anything that would be helpful.
It’s on.
Btw, here are two quotes from Rush to get us started:
What we’re doing here is setting the table to win seats back in 2010 and the White House in 2012 after all this overreaching takes place. We’ve also gotta make sure that this is the worst of it, because if you win in 2010 but we got national health care, how do you roll it back? So it’s crucial.

This stimulus package passed the House. It’s going to pass. This pork bill is going to pass. There’s nothing the Republicans can do to stop it. What the Republicans can do is position themselves in such a way that they have no authorship of it so that when it bombs out they cannot be harmed by it — and in fact can use their opposition to win reelection and pick up seats in both the House and the Senate…
Let’s get busy.

sheiss. if that’s not obstructionist, I don’t know what is.
The repulsive toad makes me sick! What is amazing is that these fools listen to him believe every word like it’s gospel. I listen to Washington Journal on C-span and they call, invariably in a self righteous fury, southern drawls quivering with rage as they faithfully read back Rush’s talking points from the previous day.
He has these people where they truly hate democrats and Liberals-HATE. According to them, this bill is buying votes and rewarding the people that put Obama in office, that’s what it is all about. And there’s money in there for ACORN who committed voter fraud to steal this election! Rush said it, it has to be so!
Sooner or later, there will be violence that the reptilian asshole incites, you can count on it. I wonder what they will do about it then?
U.S. Senators can be reached by calling 202-224-3121
U.S. House switchboard number is 202-225-3121
who pays this FFFATfffUKKs salary,those are not his words or ideas,he is whacked out on drugs…exspose his backers
Here’s their strategy. It’s quite simple actually.
They’ll use Collins, Snowe and a couple of Blue Dog Democrats and insipid Joe Lie to cut the stimulus down to a level where IT WON’T WORK. Then they will not support the bill. It’ll pass with the barest number. It will fail to succeed because it has been gutted. Then the Republicans will declare that “see it didn’t work…it was a total waste”.
