Hey, folks-Anybody know if Obey signed on with Conyers?

I couldn't find him on the list, although Tammy is there. And of course Kind doesn't seem to be on it either. Let's find out for sure about Obey & Kind & maybe at least make them tell us why. (I guess there are more than 100 Congresspeople now signed on calling for a DSM inquiry.)

1. Kind is DLC. I doubt he'll sign on until it starts looking like

DLC members are seriously outnumbered - or until he gets enough pressure from the district.

Obey, on the other hand seems to like playing it cool and staying out of the devisive arenas. Which seems odd for a man who called for Rummy's resignation 18 months ago. Something tells me he could be persuaded. I'll see what I can do to get some of my friends in the 7th to contact him.

2. In addition to being DLC, Kind is a num-num. I expect no better

from him. Obey, on the other hand, is a supremely intelligent and informed person. I wouldn't presume to tell him what to do, but I would like to know his thinking on this issue.
