Brendan Calling: Harry Reid Hearts AT&T
“Hello, Senator Harry Reid’s office,” said the young woman on the other end. It was strange she was working there so late: it was at least 6:15 PM. I identified myself and told the young woman in no uncertain terms that Harry Reid needs to back off.
“I am one of thousands of Americans who called Senator Dodd to urge him to do this,” I said. “This bill is an egregious violation of Americans’ civil and Fourth Amendment rights, and Harry Reid is on the wrong side of history right now.
“Why is he trying to undermine a fellow Democrat anyway? I mean, it’s no secret that the bill’s author Jay Rockefeller is a huge beneficiary of AT&T’s largesse, but why should Americans have their rights taken from them because the Senator’s friends are in hot water?”
“I’ll pass your message along sir.” -CLICK-
And look how friendly Senator Reid is with AT&T. $22,000? They may rank donor number 17, but their contribution to the Majority Leader is far greater than what they give to their lackey mr. Rockefeller! Are things beginning to come together now?
What should we do when calls and emails fall on deaf ears? What choice do we have? I’ve been in Cleveland 4+ months - not once have I heard from my representative Stephanie Tubbs Jones(after 20 or so emails). Every business in town managed to contact me - but not her. Hell the only correspondence I get is a newsletter from Voinovich.
Pathetic. Democrats aren’t spineless, they’re happy with the way thing are.
