remind them we don't want government shutdowns, we don't want defense budgets going up (the new 'pork') while social programs and safety nets go down, we don't want another credit downgrade while they weasel around the debt limit, we want jobs programs like highway bill and infrastructure programs including a freaking increase in gas tax after a couple decades...

It's got to be a real hot August recess -- I know the teabaggers will be yelling, we got to be louder!
