A reminder - when the Senate gets back in business next
week top on the repugs agenda is repeal of the estate tax.

I just called both of my senator's (repugs) offices in DC to express my concern that this would be seen as a travesty, given what is going on in this country. The "Haves" vs. "The Have Nots". I further indicated (in case the phone people didn't get it) that I would be affected in a very positive way if the estate tax was repealed but I was aware that only a few thousand people each year would benefit from the repeal and now is not the time to rub people's face in it. Basically I gave them my "Rising tide raises all ships" speech.
