I just got a call from Newt Gingrich

explaining how great the puke platform is for the November elections, I though WTF????? So I pressed one and the woman on the other end was extolling the greatness of Rick Perry, Sarah Palin, Scott Walker and the rest of the clown car.

I told her I would be delighted to contribute to the "cause" if she could explain why the newtster told his wife he was leaving her for another woman while she was on a hospital bed suffering from cancer. The phonebanker got really huffy, wow, I'm still in laughing at how she tried to tell me how great the up coming cattle call was.

Ended the call telling her that I didn't know how I got on their list but get me the "f" off of it now./

Isn't kinda early for this shit?

Dont know what, but the new marketing methods tells them whether you are a Republican depending of what car you buy, or what brand of chips (or at least some genius convinced them it was the case).

can you donate now.

the person on the other end sounded like she just left the freedumb convention with all of the idjits. I don't think she expected me to be on the other end.

Next one, I'm going to ask if they mind my recording the conversation just for the hell of it.

Care what the project was since Newt was involved I did not want to help. Guess his wife needs more jewelry from Tiffany's.
