Oh boy, my favorite way to start a diary...
I got an email today from the DNC urging me to contact my Senators and urge them to support the filibuster.
Alas, I'm saddled with Wayne "The Dullard" Allard as my Senior Senator. I've written emails to him before on the subject and he replies with some blithering bullshit about how 9/11 changed everything.
More below:
Here's what I wrote:
Dear Sen. Allard,
I want you to vote to support the filibuster. And don't give me your standard baloney that some how 9/11 magically changed things. Only morons are stupid enough to buy that. I have a low tolerance for idiots in office - so don't be one. 9/11 changed very little, although I realize the cowards in the Republican Party have used it as an excuse to trash the Constitution. I'm telling you now, grow up. There's no boogy-man hiding under the bed. Find a spine and support your country over your party for a change.
Sincerely,
Jake Thomson
