I am so thankful that that kind of phone marketing thing haven't reached us here in Sweden yet. There ought to be a law, dammit.

<insert bitter laugh here>

There is, Liar. Crafted by politicians who exempted themselves.

L, there is a law here, but the Pols exempted themselves. Shocking, I tell you, shocking.

Ed - my daughter hung up on Collin Powel yesterday

She hurt his feelings, too, Lime. He called and told me about it.

Let me get this straight:

Politicians actually phone you? Real life politicians? Not a recording?

Jeez, I'd love that. If Teflon Tony phoned me, I'd sit down and have a long debate with him. If he could convince me, I'd vote for him.

I'm not sure I'd fancy my chances, as he's a bloody good arguer and has a way of slipping out of any situation, but I'd love the opportunity to talk to him and put my points across. Maybe I could convince him.

If I'm understanding this right, then you are lucky people.

Gawd, no, Earl! If they phoned us themselves, they'd have to *gasp* TALK to us! Eeeewwwww!

Recordings all.

They e-mail me though.

 

[TheEarl]

Awww. I thought you got real politicians through on the phone. That would be cool.

[Boxlicker101]

I'm mad as Hell and I'm not gonna take it anymore. No politician has called me asking for my vote. This might be because I have an unlisted number and just moved into this place three months ago but that's no excuse. Tomorrow I am gonna to go and vote against everybody. That'll learn 'em

I had one live call this year -- a Senator's wife. Talked her ear off, I did Told her that her husband was not a strong enough advocate for people with disabilities in our state. She was polite and it actually sounded like she was taking notes! (Hey, I can delude myself if I wanna!)

Rest of 'em have been recordings. I vote for a button on our phones that would melt the calling equipment.

 

[OhMissScarlett]

I wish John Edwards would call here. I'd talk dirty to him and ask him what he was wearing.

 

[sweetnpetite]

Bill Clinton called me. TWICE!!

 

[OhMissScarlett]

Bill Clinton called me. TWICE!!

Be careful, someone might be taping your conversation.

I'm so jealous.

 

[Guest]

They waited til today to call you???

I must have had 2 dozen calls yesterday. On a SUNDAY. On a day that I was expecting calls concerning more important issues. Had I not already decided not to vote for either of these dipshits, that would have removed both their chances of getting my vote.

My vote still goes to Paul Reubens.

If you get a live call like that, Imp, they generally really do want to knowwhat you think and she probably was taking notes.

As an aside, during a campaign I worked on a few years back, one of our phone workers contacted our opponents biggest supporter's mother by mistake. Mom said that her son was making a mistake by supporting our opponent, said that she was voting for us and that she was sorry her son was acting like such an idiot that he had certainly been raised to think clearer than he was demonstrating. She was a dear.

Many years ago I used to campaign for a political party in the Cities of London and Westminster by knocking on people's front doors.

The Council estates were no problem. The usual answer (to a party worker of any party) was 'Fuck off!' so I could cover a large number of homes in a short time.

The closer I got to the Houses of Parliament the more Members of Parliament I met. Those of my party offered encouragement in a brief couple of words. Those of the other parties offered alcoholic drinks and long discussions on why my party was wrong-headed. One cross-bench (= independent) hereditary Lord gave me black coffee and use of the toilet. That was true courtesy.
