This morning, buried in different threads, I have seen two reports on Freepers receiving automated phone calls asking for calls to Congressmen about Tom DeLay.
I think we need to know how widespread these phone calls are, and which congressmen are being targeted.
The two reports I read were in New York and Texas.
If anyone has received such a call, please post it here along with the organization and the congressman targeted. I believe the Rats are trying to create the impression of a groundswell against DeLay, and I am interested in stopping this.
Hi...I am home. Thanks for bumping the thread!
I got a call from People for the American Way saying it was an "ethics alert". They were calling to warn me about how my congressman, Jeb Bradley was best friends with Tom Delay. I don't know what else they wanted to warn me about as it was at this point that I slammed the phone down. I live in New Hampshire.
Which is the precise reason the calls started going out on Friday afternoon! That gives 'em the whole weekend to prepare for when the excrement comes in contact with the turbinator!
Just seen ya out there and thought I'd let you know I'm back up.

Sorry...supposed to be e-mail...
I got one at noon trying to tie Melissa Hart to the "evil" Tom Delay. The group was "We The People" and the outdialer was from "Info Cision Man" at 330-670-8676. This thing wasn't planned. [/sarcasm]
S. Florida here. My call was Friday around noon saying that Rep. Foley received tainted money from Delay and I should demand that Foley return the tainted $. The call was from "wee the people" (I believe) and came from Tampa Center, FL 813.290.6001
This is a well-coordinated and expensive effort. My goal is to make this a waste of money for whoever bankrolled it.
Did I ever tell you that I'd marry you if I wasn't already married?

Seriously,this seems to be a nationwide operation. Calls registered from Florida, Pennsylvania, New Mexico, Texas, New Hampshire, Connecticut, etc.
This cost someone a LOT of money. I want to know who paid for it and where they got their funding. My Rat-detector is sounding the alert signal, big time!
That, and your Barbara Streisand detector works real well.

I need to get some sleep. Anyone who has the inclination, PLEASE bump this thread during the night. Thanks!
BTTT ...
Bump through the weekend until Monday, when we can get back on this.
I believe that political parties (and perhaps political organizations) and companies you are now, or have previously done business with are exempt. Just rememberlaws never apply to themselves.
Bump in the night ...
Bump ...
BTTT ... again ...
BTTT ... again ...
