Contact Schumer re AG Candidate

Contact Senator Chuck Schumer, head of the Senate Judiciary Committee about confirming Mukasey for Attorney General, by form or by phone: 202-224-6542.

I wrote to Senator Schumer:
Please do NOT support Mukasey unless

-- He answers firmly YES to the question: "Should the president of the USA be subject the the laws and the Constitution of the United States of America?"

-- He comes out firmly against torture and agrees that almost drowning people (water boarding) IS torture.

PLEASE NOTE: If the above are not met, be assured that I will be totally APPALLED and will NOT be able to give even one penny to fund your DSCC.


Bob Fertik of Democrats.com also suggests calling the DSCC directly and giving the same message: 202-224-2447. (Schumer currently chairs the committee.)

P.S. Thanks to author John Nichols for posing the law/constitution question on AAR's The Rachel Maddow Show.
