Tweet Your Senator on HealthCare Insurance Reform

Healthcare insurance reform is currently a hot issue. You can make your voice heard via Twitter--by Tweeting your Senator in favor of healthcare reform.

Tweet Your Senator is a new feature now available at BarackObama.com.

Tweet Your Senator is easy and simple to use. You enter your zipcode and a pre-populated tweet is created that is directed at one of you Senators.

After you are done entering your zipcode, you press a button, and the tweet goes up to your Twitter page and is ready to be sent. If your senator is not on Twitter, the tweet will include your Senator's name rather than their Twitter handle.

The Tweet Your Senator page also contains an interactive map that is very interesting. If you tweet you might see your face.

To Tweet Your Senator go here.

Rocky Politics: The Coal Question

clipped from blogs.wsj.com

Which weighs more this election year—the economy, or the environment?

This was supposed to be the year the environment and climate change reached a political tipping point
For the Democrats, the issue is especially prickly. As the WSJ reports today (sub reqd.), coal has become part of the political battlefield as the primaries wind down:
The race for the Democratic nomination hinges on a handful of states where coal is still king. That puts Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama in a bind: how to attack global warming without threatening an industry that provides half the U.S.’s electricity and more than 80,000 mining jobs.

Sen. Barack Obama called the U.S. “the Saudi Arabia of coal.”
We’ve written before
And both candidates have been taken to task for double-talk on coal, such as Sen. Clinton’s apparent support for mountain-top removal coal mining

Obama: $1 Million in a Minute


The latest salvo in the Presidential hopeful's Web campaign is a site designed to process a million dollars in 60 seconds


AnObamaMinute.com calls for pledgers (who can pre-register) to register a donation within 60 seconds, at 1pm on Apr. 21.


Analysts say the site further underscores the engagement and enthusiasm that has buoyed Obama's campaign. "Obama is already the greatest fund-raising success in American history," says Larry Sabato, director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia. "This is another wrinkle, another innovation that confirms the Internet's potential."

Who said the following about the Presidents address to the nation

Do you know?

Your reaction or comment?
clipped from blogs.usatoday.com
I thought the president was correct to follow General Petraeus's recommendations. ... it seems to me that our goal in Iraq is no different now than it was at the very beginning. The goal, the mission in Iraq is to provide safety and security so we can have an ally in Iraq against the Islamic terrorists. That was the mission that most of the Democrats agreed to in 2003. They've kind of changed their minds about that.
He is bound to the same failed course that we have seen for the last several years.
The President’s strategy in Iraq is not succeeding. It is not making America safer. Doing more of the same would be a disaster.
After almost five years, tonight was just more of the same. It's not
progress nor is it the strategy for success our troops deserve.
