1. Done! Just called both.

That makes 16 calls and I spoke with 4 of them so far today. Grassley's staffer said he's voting to go with the motion and I had to leave a heartfelt, personal message with Ernst. I too need the ACA since I need expensive surgeries to reduce my newly diagnosed(last Sept) fatal illness and I will lose my 550 sq foot apt within 18 months. They don't care about me or you therefore I wish that they will suffer a million time worse than all those effected (combined) by their cruel actions. I really do want to see it happen. In fact at this point in time the torture methods used during the Spanish Inquisition would suit me just fine.

2. I did call

for all the good it did.

I don't feel like either one of them actually gives a single fuck what actual human people have to say.

3. I did too and I think I got the Ernst staffer crying

not because I yelled or anything.
I was very frustrated and said things like "doesn't she know we are humans too?"
"Surely she has one member in her family whose life she will be cutting short. What will she say to them?"
"How does she profess to be Christian and then perform such an anti-Christian act?"
Plus a few others.

I think I really got to the staffer although that wasn't my plan. I was just so frustrated.

4. The staffer I got sounded bored

and annoyed that I was calling to complain rather than praise her.

"Don't you people ever have anything positive to say?".

I'm glad you got through to someone...I am starting to believe that there is no hope for a significant segment of the population.

5. The staffer really said that? Wow

She has a staffer in Davenport that says shit like that. Total effing idiot.

6. Usually they are polite

this time, the guy must have had a lot of calls.
