[Peace-discuss] Re: [Peace] Gaza Demonstration

[Jenifer Cartwright]

Eric,
  I think phone calls and emails are a good addition to- (and maybe just as effective as) actual demonstrations. I plan to include a reference to the campaign contributions I'm NOT sending (to Durbin and Obama) because of their silence about the Israeli attacks on Gaza... 
   
  I'll forward the contact info just sent to me.

  I'm sure there is, but I wouldn't know how to do it. Something tells me they wouldn't respond any way.
