I once owned OutsourceCongress.org. Basically, it was a site to load up the staffers of Senators and Representatives and allow one to click once and load all the staffer email addresses of a Rep/senator into your mail client. Thus, I didn't send the emails, others did via their ISPs; so they couldn't block me or stop me either. It side-tracked(with ease) around their Contact Me pages at the House/Senate. Plus, you could email your issue straight to the people that matter(Chief of Staff), not some intern that just reads email and counts For/Against on the issue.
It was a lot of fun; knowing the same jerks at Rep John Mica's office that mislead us and the Senators that ignored our issue (training our foreign replacement workers on L1 and H-1b visas, then getting laid off) were sometimes getting pounded with emails from all across the country.
The best story was Senator Arlen Specter(PA). His chief of staff wrote back to someone saying he was going to turn her into the FBI for "threatening his people". She was a 60+ year old retired teacher. His threat to her made it on the radio here in Orlando, then onto multiple websites with my URL too. He got pounded with emails. My estimate was in 1000's per day, possibly more. I heard he couldn't use his phone(blackberry) because there was so much mail coming down to it. Eventually he changed his email address.
They hated me and would constantly ask that they get removed from the list. This thread sortof motivates me to do it again.
