Republicans Who Telemarket....

I just got a recorded message on my cell phone from the Republican Party of California (Even though I'm registered with the National Do Not Call list). I called them back and asked how they got my telephone number and they said it was given to them by the Registrar of Voters (even though I’ve been a life long Democrat).

The minute I started to tell her that, and that I wanted to know where to send my cell phone bill because they had wasted my minutes, she started babbling something and then hung up on me (A typical Republican reaction).

Feel free to call and tell them what you think of them (and the current Govenator). Ask to speak to Yvette (She was the one I spoke to, or Duff Sunheim who left the message.

They can be reached at (81 841-5210

non-profits and political calls are exempt from the do not call list.

Additionally, voter registration records are open to anyone who wants to pay for them. How do you think all those British people got the addresses of Ohio voters in the last Presidential election?

diva, I hate any of those calls, republican or democrat......I just hang up on the republican ones, and I say I vote straight democratic to the demo ones, and they say thank you and go away......
I find these calls almost as annoying as the 2 million placards/signs/whatever gracing every lot in Palm Springs....

I wish I had answered the phone, they just left a long rambling message about how Arnold is doing great things for the state.

Yea, like taking away promised money for the school system and signing bills against gay marrige to name a couple.

I live in NYC, so it seems a bit disingenuous to call Calif. and complain. Plus I don't want to dial the number until I get it right...lol...
