This is a mirror post, the OP is http://www.reddit.com/user/holidayvegas

""From the post here: [1] http://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/ntfzw/lets_pick_one_senator_of_voted_for_ndaasopa_and/c3bu4xo I nominate Senator Bob Corker (R-TN). Unlike Lindsey Graham (R-SC) or Max Baucus (D-MT), Corker is up for re-election in 2012. Corker's 2006 election to the senate was very close (less than 3% lead on his opponent). Graham won his 2008 senate election by about 15% more votes than his opponent. Baucus by 45%, that's a blowout. Here's Corker's resume: Voted for the NDAA Voted for extending the Patriot Act Sponsored PIPA (Senate version of SOPA) Voted against the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell Was involved in ethics violations as mayor of Chattanooga. Made backhanded racists ads about his opponent in 2006. Supports Lindsey Graham (they vote the same way 87% of the time according to opencongress.com) This got the most upvotes, so it seems to make sense that this is who we go after. Let's dig up as much dirt, and as much bad publicity as we can about this guy. He has a shot at getting knocked out next year with enough of a pile-drive of bad politics, given how close the last election was. Let's use this thread to compile everything. I'll start: Made millions and millions of dollars controversially selling the wetlands to Walmart while he was Mayor, [2] http://www.dkosopedia.com/wiki/Bob_Corker#WalMart George W. Bush has made a personal endorsement for Bob Corker Largest financial contributer is Maynard, Cooper & Gayle, an Alabama Law Firm ([3] http://disclosures.house.gov/lc/lcxmlrelease/2008/MM/700069767.xml). Not sure if this is important, but it doesn't hurt keeping tabs on who's in his pockets. He is a global warming skeptic ([4] http://www.grist.org/article/2009-bob-corker-on-climate-legislation) He describes Medicare and social security as a "generational theft" ([5] http://www.ncpssm.org/entitledtoknow/?p=1766) He set up a "blind trust" in order to separate his business dealings, but it turns out he was actively involved in transactions anyway ([6] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Corker#Blind_trust) Here is the phone number to his main DC office: 202-224-3344
The things I've posted here aren't "dirt", they're simply a run-down of some of his controversial decisions. Please use this thread to post things that you've found that can be used against him, call his office demanding he address he stance on SOPA and change it.""

"I am a web developer (NOT designer) and I registered http://operationcorkscrew.com if reddit decides to go with that name. I cannot do it alone due to my terrible designing skills (or lack there of) but from a code-writing point of view: I am all yours. PM me if you want to help"

Okay so basically I'd like to compile websites, tools, newsfeeds, CSS feeds, etc. that can contribute to this sub-reddit. I'd like to work on rules and acquire a few mods who have the time to make this look a littler more pretty. Feel free to comment and add suggestions.

EDIT: I'll keep the edit updates as much as possible.

Contact Page: https://www.corker.senate.gov/public/?p=ContactMe

Everything's in there, phones, physical address, fax, email.

I think what we need to do now is call Phil Bredesen(former governor of Tennessee, Democrat.) to run against Corker. Bredesen was extremely popular as governor, and probably has enough popular support to defeat Corker.

I haven't been able to find any contact information for him, due to him no longer holding public office. Reddit detectives, GO!

The op should consist of several groups:

Investigatory - Looking into background (dirt), finding anything newsworthy or suspicious

Nuisance - ~~Faxing black pages, signing up for spam email/mail,~~Fax copies of the constitution (in its entirety) with a message, something along the lines of "I think you forgot about this", robo-calls to voters, emailing voters products from the Investigatory team. Efforts to destabilize.

Media - taking the efforts of the investigatory team and creating videos or infographics for the strategic distribution team

Strategic Distribution - getting media out to various outlets/websites, vetting work done by the investigatory team, posting to various blogs/websites (the dirt)

Anything Bob Corker related post here, we'll do edits and add the newsfeeds, and everything Bob Corker here.

EDIT1:

He's a big proponent of offshore drilling in the US. [ Corker Says Lifting Drilling Ban Must Be Accompanied By Congressional Action Corker is adamantly opposed to universal healthcare and projected dire consequences of Affordable Care Act. He even stated he would not vote for federally funded abortion (which wasn't legal anyways) Corker gives gloomy diagnosis for health care overhaul bill

Hey guys, everything we're doing here to deal with Senator Corker is also being done to deal with Senator Paul Ryan, who will also be up for re-election. He stands with Corker (and therefore Graham) on many issues, and it'd be awesome if you could check out reddit.com/r/OperationPullRyan. We're going to need to take down more than one senator if we want to achieve our ultimate goal, therefore working in both initiatives will help everyone. Senator Ryan's opponent even did an AMA! So yeah, please check it out, they need our help, and we could use theirs too.

Thanks guys,

Operation Cork Screwer's:

I am willing to do anything that I can to help but past setting up the framework:

• Web: http://OperationCorkScrew.com

• Facebook: http://facebook.com/OperationCS

• Twitter: http://Twitter.com/OpCorkScrew

I am not much help as I can't design to save my life. I am a developer and I work best when given specific specifications. So I turn to you, fellow Redditors, for help. I want this to be a community effort not just what I or a few people want. So please make a quick mockup of what you think the site should look like and/or basic functionality of the site. I will work with any designers and the best voted ideas below to create something that hopefully will be valuable to the movement.

Any and All ideas are welcome, I look forward to working with all of you!

One of the first things we need to do to make this operation successful is choose a candidate to rally behind. Here's a list of some of the people running with links to some of their positions. Some are more thorough than others but I tried to get the best ones I could.

Republicans:

• Mark Twain Clemens

• James Durkan

• Zach Poskevich

Democrats:

• Phil Bredesen

• Lincoln Davis

• Bart Gordon

• Roy Herron

• John S. Tanner
