grassley's office guy just hung up on me [View all]

I consider that a badge of honor. I called to mention that a lot of prominent republican lawmakers are retiring and grassley should join them. The guy got angry and "asked" me not to call again unless I had something of substance to request or discuss. I told him that since my taxpayer dollars pay his salary, I'll call whenever I damn well please and say whatever I want. He then hung up on me. I'm calling again. And again. And again.
In the interest of fairness, the guy asked me not to call a couple of months ago as well when I mentioned that the Russians and the Koch bros. had him bought and paid for. I kept calling and will continue to call. See, I believe in Democracy and this is one way of showing it.
I should add that the office I call is in Davenport, Iowa, which is where I live.
