REGARDING ROBO CALLS, COMPLAIN TO THE GOP
Edited on Mon Nov-06-06 06:18 PM by LSK
Our candidates know about this. The DNC knows about this. Our candidates and their workers are very busy working on GOTV right now and do NOT need you calling them to tell them about something they already know about.

If you want to call someone, call the GOP and complain to them. Use up their phone lines and make them busy answering questions about it.

Again, please DO NOT call the DNC right now about this. Call the GOP. Complain to them.

After the election, yes, then you can address the DNC and your local democrats to see what they can do about it. But NOT NOW. THEY ARE TRYING TO GOTV.

1. .
Exactly! Call them as someone who was undecided, complain, waste their time and let them know that you are fed up by this and that you know that they are behind it and that you will inform everyone you know. Let them know how pissed you are and that it is having an effect on your decision who to vote for.

the long distance phone line and get put through to a number that just puts me back through to their operator-they advised me to call TOMORROW 202-863-8743 and ask to be put on their do not call list! I advised him I was trying to get dinner and had recieve calls from Giuliani, Barbara Bush, and McCain in the past hour and that they had just made me certian of my vote-DEMOCRAT!

6. I phoned the NRCC
When I told the receptionist that anonymous calls of this type are a violation of federal law, the chirpy girl on the other end replied that each robocall adds "Paid for the NRCC" at the end of each message. Even if that is true -- and I have no reason to believe her -- simply being told that the calls are paid for by the "NRCC" means absolutely nothing for the common person; how many people know that "NRCC" stands for the National Republican Congressional Committee?

16. .
Kick.
The suggestion of the OP is really good. Hit those who are responsible for that and not those who are the target.

Let them know your feelings. In great detail. Then ask to talk to a manager. Let him know in even greater detail.

20. They don't care. They will just get a fine.
And gladly pay it out of the gazillion dollars
they have stolen from the US Treasury.
