This is quick and it is not time to stop. I will get beaten up politically by this, but there are times that you have to stand up, and a lifetime appointment is such a time.
I faxed 13 Senators for free and have email conformation from savethecourt.orgIt is quick, and I also took a moment and sent an email to five others asking them to fax these 13 Senators. (See Below)
The 13
Obama, Barack (Democrat) – United States Senate, IL
Fax
Dodd, Christopher (Democrat) – United States Senate, CT
Fax
Lieberman, Joseph (Democrat) – United States Senate, CT
Fax
Biden, Joseph (Democrat) – United States Senate, DE

It is automatic, and you have no dialing, or huge amount of time invested.
Please consider joining me in saying NO to ALITO!

I did it — I’m not sure about the value of having their stationary all over the fax (and I’m wondering about giving out my personal info to an unknown organization — but it seems like a lesser risk than doing nothing today), but I think at this point each page is unlikely to be examined closely.
On the off chance that someone actually reads my particular FAX, I customised the text.
Thanks for pointing me to this service!
Well, we blog denizens have been wearing out our phones and heating up our faxes – good to see a candidate join us here in the trenches.
However – looking at your list, a few of them are already committed to the filibuster. For anyone else thinking of faxing, Democrats.com’s Alito 48 page has the latest on who needs prodding, and who NOT to call, because they’re already on board.
Actually I don’t think the page I used (from this diary) gave options for who to FAX, it included Lieberman who I would have deleted, but who knows, bugging Lieberman might be worthwhile just for the excuse.
That is correct. The one thing is you fax those 13 Senators and have no option, but even those that support Alito should know the number of people that do not. That’s my opinion, anyway. But hey, I am the main character of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington II, The House Version!

Good update and link. As for faxing those that are onboard, well, let’s give them reason to stay on board! Thanks for all that you are doing for our country.

Janet, I’m an idiot and can’t keep track of what they mean by all the crossed out lines.
heh, the sin is when you fax protest usuing white text on black background. evil grin
LOL That is evil and eats up ink. That is Democratic evil. Republican evil is so more crushing. Glad I am on the good guys side!
