6. If the polls are right
And most Americans want to cut tax breaks for big corporations and the rich then this may be a good thing. I will keep trying till I get through.

8. Same thing for me. I say it's a good thing.
If nothing else, people listened and are responding. It's never a bad thing when people take a part in a democratic system.

There is a banner running on MSNBC that the WH server has crashed.
Maybe someone besides us paid attention to the speech?

14. I have a reason.
Ordinarily I would do snail mail, but I wanted them to get something on a piece paper as quickly as possible. Something they could put in their briefcases to read later. I often feel like the email is deleted without getting to the desk of the Congressperson or Senator. And yes, people still use faxes when they want documentation for their files. We use faxes for medical records and prescriptions in the doctor's office on a daily basis.
