Yeah I was online during the speech. I've learned to do this because
a republican always does something wacky. And sure enough, "You
Lie!" -- so within 20 minutes, the Congressman's name, picture, and
number was on twitter. Once I saw he repped the second district, I
looked up his opposition. Picked up. Dialed Addison ("Joe")'s
office. Said my piece. Hung up. Wrote check. Sent. Turned on TCM.
The end.

hound him.

Rob Miller, the man running against him for Congress in the 2nd

hours after the address.

we've listened to the Right call Obama a terrorist, socialist, and
even (thank you Mr. Beck) a racist. He's been labeled Nazi,
"Christian" ministers are praying for his death, and parents lost
their minds trying to deny their kids the option to listen to him
give a fairly safe, canned "Stay in school and study hard speech".
(Oddly enough, I didn't see any kiddies roaming around today
burning down buildings, quoting Marx, or kissing the Koran).

We've had guys standing outside buildings where he's located,
wearing sidearms, something that chills me to my bones. Small
wonder that the Secret Service has given him more protection than
any Prez in history. I hear he has four times as many death threats
as is "normal" for a President. And of course, the health care
debate has been a prime example of the hatred and lies surrounding
him, with charges of "death panels", socialism, government
takeovers, etc., running rampant. It's been disgusting, it's been
infuriating, it's been maddening. But I've tried to stay the
course, to wade and cut through the garbage of the Right as I try
to search for the truth. I've tried to stay above the stench of it
all.

> My feelings about that aside--my feelings about *any* of the

come so far, has the Right become so emboldened, that it's okay to
call the President a liar on television?? It's okay that an image
beamed around the world shows disrespect for our duly elected
leader, a man trying to do something to help the dispossessed? Is
the office so contemptible now that you don't even respect it, if
not the man? I've seen some things during Obama's rise, but this is
going too far. In one statement, Wilson has crystalized and
symbolized all the ignorance, hatred, disrespect, danger,
foolishness, and intolerance that has characterized this debate.
This, then, is the fruition and completion of Palin, still talking
death panels today. This is the result of Glen Beck's charges of
racism and witch hunts against good men.

In an environment where people wear sidearms around the President
and feel empowered to call him a liar to his face, something is
very, very wrong--and we have to take a step to stop it.

I say "trying" because all communication methods are currently
busy. Phone lies busy, website, slow. But I provide the below links
and ask you to do the same. And then, maybe we need to get John
Boehner's contact info as well and let him know how disgusting this
is.
