    John Kerry speaks

    Within a matter of days, the Senate could face a truly momentous decision - one with consequences that will reverberate across America for decades to come.

    Senator Frist, the Republican Majority Leader, has a plan to make President Bush's judicial nominations immune to a Senate filibuster. If he can convince enough Republican Senators to go along, the nomination and confirmation of judges will become a tightly-controlled, one-party affair.

    We're working hard to make sure the Senate doesn't cross this dangerous line. Here's how you can help.

    Please Call Your Republican Senators Now!

    Please contact Senators Kyl and McCain now. In polite and respectful language, make it clear that as one of their constituents you are counting on them to oppose Senator Frist's dangerous plan to deny millions of Americans any meaningful voice in decisions vital to America's future.

    Senator Kyl's office can be reached at:
    Phoenix 602-840-1891
    Tucson 520-575-8633

    Senator McCain's office can be reached at:
    Phoenix 602-952-2410
    Tempe 480-897-6289
    Tucson 520-670-6334

    To help us track the number of calls our campaign is generating and know where we need to place our efforts, please let us know you've made the calls.



    There is so much on the line in this debate. And, I am convinced that if we mobilize as quickly and effectively as possible, we can prevent the Senate from taking the dangerous course that Republican leaders have called for. Remember, we're fighting for the strength and vibrancy of democracy itself.

    Sincerely,

    John Kerry

    P.S. If you need extra incentive for making those calls:

    Imagine a world in which every appointment to the federal judiciary is a tightly-controlled, one-party exercise.
    Imagine the kinds of judges that will sit on the federal bench - even on the Supreme Court -- if George W. Bush never needs a single Democratic vote.
    Imagine the kind of decisions those judges will make that will directly affect your life and your constitutional rights.

          He's preparing for his nomination to the Supreme Court which will happen the minute the neocons get away with this "nukular" option, which will be followed by the "sudden" retirement of Rehnquist for health reasons.

              The Supreme Court is too liberal for my liking.

              Those justices that the last few Republican presidents put in were just liberals in disguise as moderates.

                  I want a Supreme Court that spits on our Constitution and reads opinions from European courts to use as a base for it's own decisions...

                  Oh wait, we already have that!

                  My bad.

                      No, they were straightening out the Florida Supreme Court then.

                      And they didn't need to read European court decisions to fix that error.

                      I'm referring to cases since then.

                      Apparently in the Schiavo case, they read recent decisions from the Netherlands before deciding not to get involved.
