write your congressman

Unfortunately, the same can't be said for the PC or Macintosh, and it appears that, at least at this point, StarCraft: Ghost will be a console-exclusive title. All you PC players, write your congressman!

Is this just a joke as to say you can complain about it to congressman although to no avail?

(Although since Congress seem to think that doping in baseball is more important to discuss than, oh, poverty, education, the war, and Social Security, heaven only knows what they'll take up next as a "federal" issue.)

Leave out the "as." Also, you need an article before "congressman."

It is just a joke to say you can complain about it you your congressman (although it will be to no avail).

Hi guys,

I know the form write your congressman is well established usage in the USA and I do hear it in Canada, but I also hear, and personally favour, write to your congressman.

Best wishes, Clive
