Several people on Limbaugh today have called in after calling their senators offices. Some were very angry and the senator's offices are being rude to them. Their phones are ringing off the wall. The offices are telling people we needed an energy bill fast and fear losing seats to Dems if they do not compromise.

Son of a b... :mad:

Time to swamp their offices with more calls and burn up the switchboard. :D

BTW Phil Graham was one of the senators. Sounds like McInSane is behind this.

People are telling these offices that they are losing Repub votes now if this goes through.

Rush has been going on a rampage on his show about this.

The real solution here is not to have a f-ed up energy bill from Washington.

They should allow the individual states to decide if they want oil rigs off their coast.

Then the People of TX, CA, FL, etc can decide which is more important- the economic benefit of the rigs, or the environmental/aesthetic benefit of not having them.
