Calling your elected official is akin to having a successful site where thousands of constituents are visiting a page. This is why they have publicly posted phone numbers. If you don't like what your elected official is doing it's your right and your obligation to tell the representative. It's called democracy. We have several ways to demonstrate like calling an official, a petition, and a protest being the most common. Since Bush has neutered protests, and the White House pretty much just ignores the petitions, calling your representative is one of the few ways we differ from an oligarchy.
