Call Some ‘Blue-Dog Democrats’ This Weekend (Update)

November 6th, 2009 · 1 Comment

Nothing to do this weekend?  Spend a few hours on the phone calling “Blue Dog Democrats” and letting them know you oppose any plan that puts the federal government in charge of your health care.

Missourians who traveled to Washington, D.C., to share that message with members of Congress in face-to-face fashion informed me tonight that the House switchboard will operate through the weekend since Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is keeping the House in session for a vote on health care set for Saturday Sunday].

UPDATE 11/07/09 at 8:25 a.m. Central: I learned this morning that three members, highlighted in RED below, need extra attention as they’ve been identified by MoveOn.org as potential votes against ObamaCare.  Be sure to call them first.

    My sister and her family live in Ike Skelton’s district in Missouri. He voted no…even with the abortion amendment. He did what he said he would do…unlike Owens from New York. Bet some of those people who only voted for Owens because their candidate dropped out are kicking themselves now for not voting for Doug Hoffman.
