When you are calling Congressmen today, and you can get your Congressman’s name by going to http://www.redstate.com/action, keep in mind that these are the four Blue Dog Democrats who decided to cut a deal with the liberals in the House of Representatives.
These four men need to be called by every single freedom loving person in their districts.
Bart Gordon(TN) at 202-225-4231
Zack Space (OH) at 202-225-6265
Baron Hill (IN) at 202-225-5315
Mike Ross (AR) at 202-225-3772
Shouldn't we rename "Blue Dogs" as "Unicorns" just to get the point across better?
JSobieski Thursday, July 30th at 6:08AM EDT (link)Other alternatives could be phrases like Hobbit Conservatives, Fiscally responsible dragons, CGI conservatives, or moderate magicians?
We shall call them by their names: Effing Rooster-Hoovers nt
janis Thursday, July 30th at 11:31AM EDT (link)They are DEMOCRATS, people.
willik Thursday, July 30th at 6:30AM EDT (link)As such, they are totally dependent on the DNC for funds to be re-elected in order to remain on the public teat.
Sadly, it probably did not take too much arm twisting by the White House (Rahm Emanuel, et.al.) and the House leadership.
The logo for these guys should be an in the flipping hamburger that is to be served to the highest bidder. The DNC is usually the winner for these types.
Hopefully their districts are informed enough to oust these “fiscal conservatives.”
Grrr!
Amen! Blue Dogs Roll Over And Play Dead On Pelosi's Command!
Ausonius Thursday, July 30th at 7:35AM EDT (link)They are NOT conservatives and cannot be trusted to be anything other than Democrats!
In which case they are not really Judases, as Mr. Erickson writes: just typical Democrats.
Remember that Democrats are first loyal to their ideology stating that America is a fat, greedy, unfair, uncaring, racist, and even genocidal country, which is so broken that only radical measures can fix it, and which deserves all the hatred of the rest of the world for leeching wealth away from it.
They believe we have to be taught a lesson, and the lesson is starting with the War On Business: the demonization of insurance companies and doctors is not unlike the Russian Communist demonization of independent and (therefore) prosperous farmers known as kulaks.
Things did not end well for the kulaks! Things will not go that far here with doctors and insurance companies, but we see that small businesses are already targeted in various ways for a good whipping. Other groups will get their comeuppance soon enough!
And will Blue Dogs stand on conservative principles to stop any of this?
No: they have not done so yet! They have rolled over and played dead.
Nancy and Henry got the checkbooks out again.
Repair_Man_Jack Thursday, July 30th at 7:40AM EDT (link)It’s just like Cap and Trade. The Blue Dawgs held out until the bribe checks were written.
Hope is not a plan. Change is not always good.
Blue Dogs are Yellow Dogs who are holding their breath
bk Thursday, July 30th at 7:45AM EDT (link)I wish I could remember where I heard that line.
LOL!!! Drawl (and whatever twang they have in IN and OH) and that's all: The Myth of the conservative democrat
Mike gamecock DeVine Thursday, July 30th at 7:55AM EDT (link)52 blue dawgs my ass, when only 23 total voted against cap and trade and 8 against the stimulus…

Well, so will I.
lholsenbeck Thursday, July 30th at 9:39AM EDT (link)I was going to write letters to these guys, might as well start now with donations to their competitors for 2010.
If universal coverage goes thru, I’m going to lose that money anyways. Might as well spend it now and tell the government, “what money ?” when they come asking for more to bail themselves out of government healthcare.
Eat ‘em up Houston Cougars !
Also worth pointing out to them
smitty Thursday, July 30th at 8:35AM EDT (link)That others from outside their district may be more than happy to come into their district to help unseat them in 2010.
Give them a lot to think about during their recess.
Exactly.
Praying Thursday, July 30th at 12:22PM EDT (link)I called Bart Gordon’s office and expressed my extreme displeasure, and vowed that even though I reside in Knoxville, TN, I will travel across the state and do everything I can to unseat him in 2010 unless he changes his opinion and reneges on the “deal” he cut. I think that it is perfectly acceptable from others in the state of these dead dog democrats to call them, even if they are NOT in their district, per se. Have at it, Red State Activists!
P.S. Tennesseans - you might also want to call your schizophrenic senator (Alexander) and voice your displeasure at his support for Judge Empathy - er - Sotamayor, especially given her views on the Second Amendment. Good luck getting through, though.

I called
squeek71 Thursday, July 30th at 2:21PM EDT (link)Bart Gordon’s Washington office and his Murfreesboro office yesterday. The Washington office just said they would pass the info on. The Murfreesboro office took my name, address, etc. I asked if they had received a lot of calls and she said yes.
I call/email Gordon on all the big votes, and he NEVER votes conservatively. I don’t think he gives a darn what Tennesseans think. It is so frustrating. I can’t wait to vote against him! He actually has a republican opponent this time, so this election should not be another cake walk for him. He sends me his emails all the time. I am really sick of the “This is why I voted the opposite way than what you wanted” emails. The man has no shame!
Baron Hill's staff doesn't care
Scott Mustian Thursday, July 30th at 9:26AM EDT (link)I live across the river from his district and promised to do everything I can to help defeat him in 2010. A quick hangup is the response … they really don’t care.

Kyle-MI Thursday, July 30th at 12:51PM EDT (link)Possible Republican challengers from a quick web search:
Dave Evans http://www.daveevansforcongress.com against Gordon 6th-TN
Jeanette Moll http://www.jeanettemoll.com against Zack Space 18th-OH
Travis Hankins http://www.travishankins.com or
Todd Young toddyoungforcongress.com against Baron Hill 9th-IN
Could find any challengers yet for Mike Ross but his district voted 58% for McCain last year. There are also a number of unannounced challengers against Space. Donate at will.
p.s. Evans has a picture of himself with Fred on his front page - just reporting.
Called all four headless horsemen
bilmar Thursday, July 30th at 12:44PM EDT (link)I called all 4 and told them that I do not live in their state but would be contributing to their opposition. The same way I and over 15,000 people have contributed to Pat Toomey because of Congressman Spector’s stupid. vote
