[admin]

As a service to the pipe smoking community and the industry of pipe makers and pipe tobacco producers we have set up a free service that will automatically send emails to your Senators and Congressmen.

Ok, guys, who took action on this?

 

[group7]

I did also. And I believe we all need to!! If I remember right there was something called a constitution that said "the persuit of happiness" I think this applies

 

[sailorgil]

I just finished signing the petition and discovered that 8 others from Pennsylvania signed, also ..... I hope there are a lot more reading the forum and their email who will take action before it is too late ..... Enough is enough, already !!!

I already sent my e-mails. This government is out of control.

Is it me or is this the same thing that happened to the Colonist 200+ years ago.

Very frustrating!!

Thanks for setting this up were its easy to do. I sent links to friends. I encourage evreyone to use this.

This is crazy! We all knew this may happen, it is just so cheap for 'roll your own' smokers to use Carter Hall and Prince Albert.

Did it and posted the link to http://www.christianpipesmokers.net . Now in a debate about whether it's worth it to fight or we should just roll over and let our employees in Congress run that part of our lives too.

I signed it and also paid to have letters hand delivered to them.

It only costs $3.00 per letter and I have 3 so called representatives so , it cost me $9.00. That is just the cost of 1 tin of tobacco and is well worth it.

That's a great response Phil!
I haven't got any responses. Has anyone else?

 

[python]

I have not got a response yet, but the one Phil got is pretty nice. Hopefully the rest of them will listen as well.

I sent my petitions to my two useless Senators and one useless Congressman. They are all rank and file with Palosie and Obama so I don't know what good it will do. I highly doubt that I will get a response from any of them since I feel like I am the lone Republican in the entire state of New York.

Oooooh! You think you got it bad? Here in Chicago I'm surrounded by so many tax and spend Libs it makes my skin crawl.

...Okay, I know, I gotta go have another bowl and chill out before I start to rant.

It's called:

Dr. Bob's Diagnosis.
It's worth reading.

Ya but I was kinda hoping I would get a letter from someone of the other party.

 

[group7]

I have not heard anything from any of my Illinois Reps which is what I expected. Any of our people going to St. Louis????

 

[ghost45]

Can we say "AVOIDING" the issue... But she's too busy! Oh, don't forget, she said she is your friend! HA HA!
I am sure this is just a generic letter they send to everyone b/c I didn't vote for her.
