What Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer and Fred Hiatt mean by "bipartisanship"

Even the GOP, the media establishment and many Democrats themselves are openly mocking the claims by Pelosi and Hoyer that they "negotiated" a "bipartisan compromise."

    Best number to contact?

    I called Senator Obama's campaign today; it was the first time in my life that I've ever made a political phone call. And I plan to donate to ActBlue on payday next week.

    I've written to my Senators and congressman already, and they're going to be voting against amnesty. But I want to call my Senators as well, to hammer home the point that this issue deserves a filibuster which they had damned well better support. Just wondering, is it better to call them at their DC number, or their in-state number? Is there a difference?
