It seems that if you don't hang up, the computer doesn't hang up either. Going on 5 minutes now. That's one less computer to robocall their bullshit.

3. I wish there was a tone I could send to delete their computer's HD
Fucking ass holes - A Zell Miller message caused me to smash my answering machine to bits.

4. Good to know
Bill Clinton just called me. Since I'm in Ohio, I might hear from Laura too.

7. I had BARBARA Bush call me today...
Yes, a recording of Satan herself, Barbara Bush, called me today telling me to vote for the mentally incompetent Jim Bunning. I wouldn't think Barbara Bush would be the right person to energize their base, but whatever, lol.

11. Not to alarm you ..................
............. but your phone is now possessed and an instrument of the Devil.

Either boil it for twenty-four hours in Holy Water, or throw it away.

Your ear is in trouble, too, but a simple Hail Mary whispered while you're holding a picture of Teresa Heinz-Kerry over it will negate the curse.

8. The same thing happened to me several days ago, and I wanted
to post about it, but with so much else going on, I forgot. Are you in Texas? I thought that it was illegal, certainly unethical. First time I've ever had the First Lady call pre-recorded! I did hang up on her, as she was urging fellow Texans to vote the full Republican ticket (They've worked so hard...). And it kept going and going and going!!!

Energizer Bunny.

10. Political Calls are not illegal
Edited on Sat Oct-30-04 08:22 PM by Polly Glot
At least, not per the national Do Not Call List.

Couldn't say what the state of Texas laws are.

9. Shoot - no one has called me...
Edited on Sat Oct-30-04 08:21 PM by ABB_04
I guess everybody knows about my donations to Clark, DNC, Kerry, the yard signs, the Kerry/Edwards bumper stick on both cars, and the DU sticker on mine...

Small price to pay, although I would like to hear Laura Bush prattle on so...

13. that's what I always do
to unwanted soliciting calls whether it is a computer or a live person. Just set the phone down, go back to what I am doing and wait for the beeping noise to tell me it is time to hang up the phone.

15. I got a call from Laura Bush today
she was calling on behalf of the Repug candidate for Missouri Governor, Matt Blunt. Too bad it was a recording; I would have asked her why her daughters aren't in Iraq fighting the war on terra.

I also received two very negative calls from Patterson's camp slamming former Mayor Cleaver. The calls made me hate Patterson even more than I did before. The second call claimed that Cleaver wants to reinstate the draft! The gall of Repugs really takes your breath away. Whose war is tying up 9 of the 10 Army divisions? They have no shame.

17. You are so right.......
"The gall of Repugs really takes your breath away."

"They have no shame."

But they're the Christian Party (not!)
