All Circuits Are Busy!!

I just spent more than 20 Minutes trying to get through to Senators Webb and Warner. Their mailboxes are full their staff members phones are busy and all circuits are now busy!
Keep up the pressure!
Time to flood them with emails, Faxes and call their Virginia Offices.

Why is it that these clowns are willing to piss away 98 BILLION DOLLARS but can't upgrade their phone system so their constituents
can contact them? Hmmmm. I'm beginning to think they don't want to hear from us.
