Call White House

I understand that the president has put out a request for feedback about war with Iraq; if you'd like to register your opinion, here's how. It's easy, and may count for something:

President Bush's White House Opinion Line: 202-456-1111 Please make a call if you have a minute.

The Bush White House has an "opinion" line for you to call. The line only accepts calls from 9-5 EST., Monday through Friday. Just call the White House at 202-456-1111. A machine will detain you for only a moment and then a pleasant live operator will thank you for saying "I oppose" or "I approve." It will only take minutes. Note that the weekends are closed for calls.The president has said that he wants to know what the American people are thinking. Let him know. Time is running out. Then please forward this e-mail to at least five people right away.

Tell them what you think:

1 PHONE CALL EQUALS 10-20 PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T CALL,

PLEASE PASS ON TO FRIENDS

Arch Taylor of Louisville adds this:

Friends:

I'm sure at least some of you are familiar with the White House direct phone line. I've used it myself before and did so again after receiving this message. Apparently folks up there really do want to hear from the public, so it's important that as many as possible let the President know we oppose
war on Iraq.

I stated several reasons, including:

concern for the Iraqis,

unsettling the region,

increasing US deficit,

and increasing the deficit in the national budget.

The person I talked to thanked me and said she would relay my message. I got the message just before 4 pm on Friday and called right away.

I had to wait a while, but got through. The line is closed after 5 pm Friday till 8 am Monday.

Please try it.

Arch
