Now I feel like I need to spray my phone with disenfectant. I hit the off bottom as soon as I heard, "Hello, this is Rick Santorum." I will be glad when Super Tuesday is over.

How could you tell it was a robo-call? Did it sound intelligent or something?

Heh.. I've been getting robo-calls from EVERYBODY. Republicans. Democrats. PACs, Super PAC's. Uber Pacs. Probably I'll get robo-calls from the Ministry of Silly Walks.
And Every. Single. One. is in violation of Federal Law. That's right. They spoof their caller ID's. If I could sue 'em I'd be a gazillionaire. And every one is deleted or hung up before listening. Welcome to Ohio. The Battleground state.

cbelt3, remember that they're not in violation of do-not-call laws, because political calls are exempted (ugh).

Heh.... ALL Political calls are fraud, IMHO.
Dang loopholes. Worse is they're calling our cell phones ! We've gotten Santorum all over our cell phones lately. :booty:

Of course in today's world of unregulated political giving and spending that may actually be true. Mitt's core values are: 1) he's wealthy 2) he wants to be President Sans 1 he'd be an also ran to any number of other more worthy candidates. |
