Some great calls this morning.

1. Thanks for the heads up

I forgot to put on WJ this morning. Must be the cold, 21 degrees here in N. Florida. Ha Ha.

2. I spoke with young Mr Gainsville yesterday

and he said he was freezing.

Did you hear that call re the Carlyle Group and weapons in Iraq. Pedro cut him off. That was a cool call.

5. I'm watching now. I sent email to washington journal

I can't tell if they will read it on air but I will see.


here, the text.

I have a plan to end this Invasion and Occupation of Iraq. This will require that the people take control of this effort and pressure Republican contributors through a boycott of their consumer products and demanding the end of the occupation of Iraq and to deploy the troops to the area but not in Iraq.

Everyone who wants to end this occupation please call Republican contributor and war contractor General Electric Corporation at 203-373-2211 and ask for Public Relations and give them an ultimatum.

GET THE GOP to END THE WAR or WE DON'T BUY YOUR PRODUCTS ANYMORE.

Also tell the person this means you will not buy GE lightbulbs, telephones, televisions, radios, stereo equipment, ovens, refrigerators and any other GE products.

NO CEO WANTS THEIR TELEPHONE LINES TIED UP AND TO GET CALLS FROM THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE
EVERY DAY WHILE THEY LOSE MONEY. NO CEO. NOT ONE.

"The Republican party appears weak and vulnerable at the cash registers of those companies that donate money to them."

I want each person who wants this war and occupation to end, to tell as many friends as you can and for them to tell as many of their friends and so on and so on until GE and congressional Republicans and Democrats pass a law to stop the war and that the troops deploy out of Iraq.

Go forth and do this.

Thank you.

The Liberal Democratic Party of the United States of America.

14. Yes, I did hear that call

I am having computer problems today, but it appears that I fixed the problem.

Pedro couldn't cut that caller off any faster, you could hear the guy still ranting on when Pedro pushed the button.

I love when the Carlyle name gets out there. You know someone is going to google the name and learn more than they wish they ever knew.

Yes, we are freezing, but I don't think I will garner any sympathies from my Northern friends.

4. You are not alone

:D

12. In my "perfect world", Russ would be my President. Unfortunately, in this imperfect

country, he never could be. It's so damned sad.

6. Watch the Wingers Heads Spin when they

try to talk to Russ. Ha! Can't wait!!

7. Dem caller getsin first

:D

8. I bet Russ just changed that oldtimer's mind

who asked if our soldiers, if redeployed, would use force to protect the borders. Russ said that of course, they will fight against terrorists on the borders, as they should be doing now, as opposed to policing a civil war.

10. He gave a great response

I love this man.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

11. I adore Russ. He is brilliant, articulate and he has a true moral center. eom

9. So The Democrats Have "No Plan"

It's always a pleasure to hear Senator Feingold speak...as he's taken the time to really study what's going on here from many levels. His approach of moving forward and looking ahead disarms the wingnuts as he directly addesses their issues and questions.

[Vinca]

13. The right wing loves to paint Feingold as a raving lunatic,

but, of course, when you see him he's completely rational and intelligent. It must drive them nuts.
