DIANNE FEINSTEIN'S OFFICE DOESN"T ANSWER THE PHONE
just had to vent because all of my other reps & senators answered the phone just now and listened to my comments about the stimulus package

Just exactly WHOM is Feinstein serving? Why can't her office answer the phone? or even take a message???

:mad:

1. I reached her SF office today. Ripped them a new one.
probably don't want to hear more because I was so pissed off.

16. I thought snailmail was discouraged since the anthrax attacks
It takes a long time for regular letters to get through

7. If I were one of her staff reading this thread...
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=5030392&mesg_id=5030392

I would have suggested the phones be shutdown for a time as well. Or to put it into other words, or at least here in California, and if you drive a car: when you see an EMT vehicle careening in your rear-view mirror with lights & siren blaring...you pull over to the side of the road and stop

It is possible for us to contribute to our own levels of non-communication

12. People misread San Francisco all the time, especially from the other side of the country...
Yes it is a tolerant multi cultural society. Yes it is a beautiful breezy free wheeling world class city with wonderful people, restaurants & watering holes unless you maybe have to drive through it and get somewhere on time...but there is a solid, very conservative undercurrent that many seldom interface with. It is from that pool of applicants her staff was likely drawn from, if indeed they weren't pulled from elsewhere

But, you know, you could always call her office and ask ;)

11. They ignored millions of people marching against the Iraq invasion
and hundreds of thousands of us calling her. I don't think one thread at DU makes much of a dent. They don't work for us anyway. They work for the Defense Industry and their first concern is trade.

13. Sure they did, they all did, not just DiFi, the entire nation did and as for 'that thread'...
That just represents the outrage du jour believe me or don't but there are only two cheeks to turn four if you include the human buttocks but after that there's no more cheeks *to* turn. Or maybe look at it like customer service, after a while the phone bank shuts down due to high volume, people get testy and become less likely to even pick the thing up. I've known people that worked the capital here and senate banks in DC; and I believe them when they relate that after hours of people screaming into their ears about various issues they became numb...it's daunting. The impression I'm being left with is that even where the system were setup as a recorded 'Please push 1, 2, 3, 4' system that even that would be unacceptable cause this isn't about her phones or any people whose charge it is to answer them...

It's about our hatred for DiFi herself

15. Try her fax machine(s)
DeeCee: (202) 228-3954

SF: (415) 393-0710
LA: (310) 914-7318
San Diego: (619) 231-1108
Fresno: (559) 485-9689

Of course, she (or rather her minions) will just unplug 'em... :eyes:

Oh, and while you're at it, tell her to STFU about gutting net neutrality in an amendment to the stimulus:

19. Have not been able to get through
yet, but I'm still trying. I am tired of her stabbing us Californians, and the rest of America in the back.
