Oh, and by the way...
Dear Congressperson:
I do understand the reasoning that you have to face on a daily pressure cooker that Congress forces you to go through. It isn't easy, and often thankless work.
But having said that, I don't really give a flying fart what mean ol' Barack Obama or ghoulish John Boehner is up to. We care what you are doing. Or why you missed a vote. Just be frank about it. That's not too much to ask.
Sincerely,
ezs

Now's the time to e-write!
If you have put this off for awhile, hey, I do understand. I don't think there's a person in this world puts at least a few things off. (except for the anal do-it-right-nowers) But... this is the time!! We have a President who is compassionate to our cause. We have a former President, who, however he might differ on other issues, agrees with the President on this one.
The time for same-sex marriage is near, very near. If you e-mail now, you can put your name on record as being for it.
C'mon, folks. Make history.

Didn't think it could happen, did you?
When Barack Obama sent a brief to the Supreme Court advocating same-sex marriages, it was an earth-shaking moment. But when George W. Bush sent a letter advocating the same thing... whoa.
Think of that. Barack Obama and George W. Bush and Joe Biden and Dick Cheney... extraordinarily powerful men with very different viewpoints... come to agreement on same-sex marriage.
It used to be that same-sex marriages were a matter of liberal vs. conservative. No more. Now they're a matter of liberal and conservative vs. troglodyte.
Don't let your representative be a troglodyte. E-mail 'em.

It's time... once more!!!
Earlier this week, I was so excited having a brief meeting at a town hall with my representative John Larson. I said my bit - but now it's your turn.
I can't tell you adequately how much this will mean to you. All I can say to you is to give it a try. If you are prevented by work or distance, send an e-mail. Even if your representative is initially opposed to what you have to say, one more person - one more voter - may make him or her think twice.
As for me, I'm for freedom. Freedom to meet. Freedom to marry. Freedom to walk the streets unaccosted. Freedom to share a dinner without being kicked out. Freedom to make love without the police ramming down your door. Freedom to visit your sick partner. Freedom to say a final farewell.
This is what gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender deserve.
This is what we should demand.
