Polictial Ads?

So the Mrs. and I are watching TV last night, (Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune), and during that hour, I think I saw at least five commercials, asking us to call our Congressman, to support, health care, and the war in Iraq. These ad’s appeared to be 527 related so they aren’t related to any candidate, but I am wondering why they are showing up now. I understand the importance of both issues, but the timing has me befuddled. There is no national election, nor is there any really pending legislation…at least that I know of.

I didn’t catch who the ads were paid for by, but am real curious as to the motivation.
