2. Here's his contact page from his Senate site, but read the notice:
http://coburn.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/contactform (there wasn't an e-mail address on its own)

Contact Form

Note: Fields marked with an * are required.

Please use the following form to contact Senator Tom Coburn with your comments and concerns. If you are an Oklahoman resident, please include your full name and address if you wish to receive a written response.

Due to the increasing amount of "spam" messages received, effective February 5, 2007, Dr. Coburn's office will be implementing changes to the constituent correspondence process. These so-called spam messages, usually form letters written by special interest groups, have hindered replies to the letters of individual Oklahomans. The new measures will help ensure Dr. Coburn's office can focus on responding to the concerns and addressing the priorities of Oklahomans rather than Washington, D.C.-based groups.

Should you experience any problems with the new procedures, please call Dr. Coburn's office (Washington: 202-224-5754; Tulsa: 918-581-7651; Oklahoma City: 405-231-4941) and the staff will be happy to guide you through the correspondence process.

:eyes:

I'm guessing attachments would be bounced back, too. I've tried e-mailing other Senators and unless you're a constituent, it's almost impossible. Is he on a Committee? That may be worth a try...

I'm looking for a fax number which might be better, but not having any luck. Maybe sending to his OK office? That's GOT to be listed somewhere.

By the way, your link didn't work for me.

3. Try this link from the BBC. It is interesting that the Miami Herald has taken down its link.

4. Sending pictures won't accomplish anything.
It would only bother him if he had a conscience. As it is, he might even be pleased that he was able to upset you.

5. If we deluge his office(s) with faxes, I'm guessing some of his staff will be
horrified. And even if not, they'll complain about the spam faxes.

7. Well, let's send them to Alan Grayson who will display them on the floor of the house, Everyone
will see them then. Send them to all of Congress. It is a sad situation.

10. Does he still have a current medical license?
I would like to write a letter to the State Medical Board of Oklahoma and have them consider suspending or revoking his license to practice medicine because his acts of negligence are causing people to die. He took a Hippocratic oath to first do no harm, and he has broken it. You don't take the oath just to treat people you like and in your neighborhood, men, women and children are dying because of his negligence in his actions. I think it's worth a try.
