Obama's robot called me on Sunday. He's gone!

[Touchdown]

We caucus Tomorrow (Super Tuesday). I've been enduring robo-calls for better than a week from everybody, so that's no big deal. But Sunday is just too much!

First, Cindy Lowery, candidate for my state district in Denver, robo-called me. She's out!

Then Barak's Robot called me when I was napping, and left a 1:30 minute message!!!!:wtf: No fucking way!

I know all about "It's the country Stupid" but this is also my phone. I paid for it, and I pay the monthly charges on it. They have no permission from me to use my phone (remember, the one I pay for, not them) to beg for my vote. If they called personally that would be different, but robots are insulting, and Sunday is beyond the pale, especially for a Prez candidate that wears his Christianity on his sleeve.

Hopefully they haven't taken Edwards off the caucus rolls yet.

1. Is this snark?

[madaboutharry]

2. I think you are overreacting

I respect that your right to privacy is of great importance, as mine is to me. But, I don't recall an election where I haven't received automated calls. I have even gotten several in past elections from President Clinton, imagine that. One year I remember getting a couple from movie stars.

I don't think this is the reason to make a decision as to who you vote for. I hope you will make your decision based on who you think will be the best leader for a country.

3. Is this parody?

If you're seriously basing your vote on who does/does not send autocalls your way, it may be better for everyone if you move to a residential facility for the remainder of the primary season, where you can get a good spot in front of the starin' window and relax in peace.

[Touchdown]

35. It's an experiment.

...To see how seriously the Obama converted take themselves. So far I'm not impressed.

A couple have gotten it. The rest off the deep end.:eyes:

No, I'm not serious about using robocalls to alter my vote.

[AtomicKitten]

4. clearly you need little provocation before going off ...

[jackstraw45]

5. I weep for our future....

What a way to choose a president. Over a phone call disturbing a nap.

:eyes:

[Touchdown]

17. Please tell me what vital world changing information is

actually contained in a robocall?

[HCE SuiGeneris]

28. Please tell me that you aren't really deciding the fate of your vote

on a phone call. All you do is empower the use of such tools.

[Touchdown]

30. I'm not, but I am pissed that I get calls on Sundays.

I made my decision last month. Unfortunately, My candidate "suspended" his campaign. So now my choice is between two corporate whores. Oh' what to ponder?

[HCE SuiGeneris]

34. I feel your pain. One suspended, one completely bowed out. Damn.

[NightWatcher]

6. calm down, it's called grassroots politics. I'm sorry if we are active and not happy to just sit

and bitch about things instead of doing something about it.

I am on my way to go phone bank for Obama in the next hour.

[Touchdown]

26. You're doing it on a Monday. Good for you.

Sunday on the other hand...

Please don't lecture me about grass roots politics. I get heavily involved every two years. I also know that too much turns people off.

[rodeodance]

7. anything to win! the Obama model.

[iconoclastic cat]

9. Oh, please. Rodeodance, what the heck happened to you?

You used to be way above that sort of mindless schlock. Come on.

[rodeodance]

20. well, you see Obamacampers have tossed that line out a lot--so I tossed it back . simple

[iconoclastic cat]

43. It's beneath someone of your intelligence. nt

[Barack_America]

10. That is ridiculous. As if...

1). Hillary's campaign isn't calling frantically (they are).
2). Grassroots participation in politics is something to be ashamed of.

Admittedly robocalls suck, but it's not as if either campaign is a stranger to them.

[Dumak]

11. I think you're just upset the robo caller snubbed you

[rodeodance]

21. yeah--the green is shinning though.

[LoZoccolo]

12. I could be a Republican robo-call. n/t

[Touchdown]

37. Would you vote for a Repug from that call?

Then what is the purpose of these calls?:shrug:

[LoZoccolo]

42. To get people to vote for Hillary, who they think has less of a chance.

Or they could be Hillary robo-calls.

[BeyondGeography]

8. I applaud the depth of thought and care you have put into your voting decision

:thumbsup:

[Touchdown]

18. You have no idea.

No really. You don't.

[Nailzberg]

13. You should get free nights and weekends.

I prefer calls on Sundays. Costs me nothing.

[adapa]

14. I got really pissed at the Ron Paul robo call at -----1:30 A(the freaking)M

Remember after tomorrow it's done--

We had weeks & weeks of it here in NH
I have to laugh at the states who want to got first..They do NOT understand what goes on here at all!

[hfojvt]

15. Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto

domo!

[tandem5]

25. took my line - twas way too late. nt

[Touchdown]

16. To all who don't get it. IT WAS SUNDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama's all about the Christian thing right? He sure never shuts up about it. Sunday! The Sabbath! SUNDAY!

He can call, and some of you on the other 6 days of the week.

SUNDAY! get it through your heads. It's not about robo calls. It's about SUNDAYS!!!!!

[Bad Thoughts]

29. I got robo-called on Saturday by HRC

It was Shabbos. I didn't hold it against her. Just the IWR.

[Touchdown]

31. Saturday's not Sunday.

IWR I agree with. IWR, McClurkin. Same difference to me. Both allow for senseless deaths, either by war, or shame driven suicides.

[Bad Thoughts]

32. Saturday is my Sabbath, get the picture? eom.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

36. You're saying Obama supports blue laws?

First I've ever heard about it.

[truedelphi]

19. Your last sentence about Edwards says it all.

The robo Corporate state candidates and their robo machines want our votes so they can robo us after they are elected.

While the two people that stood with me, Kucinich and Edwards, are gone.

As they didn't snuggle up to the Robo Baron Companies fast enough!

[IndieLeft]

22. I get robo calls all day from everyone.

You know it's going to happen. Turn off your phone, and you don't have to worry about it. If you got a cell, people who know you will be able to get ahold of you anyway.

[Stuckinthebush]

23. I got a Hillary robo-call the other night

In fact, I got a robo call for all of the main candidates in the race. It would be hasty to base your vote on not liking the robo-calls.

[Touchdown]

24. Again. It's not about robo-calls. It's about Sundays

One day should be off limits.

I've gotten Hillary calls too, and my mailbox is stuffed with crap from both of them. I get it. They both want my vote. Now, please allow me some peace for one friggin day!

[Barack_America]

27. It's too close to the election for any day to be off-limits, unfortunately...

Both candidates were on the job yesterday as well.

FWIW, I don't know who is making the robocalls, but my group does phonebanking for Obama and we were specifically told not to call yesterday.

I was tempted to break that pledge because I was bored with the SuperBowl coverage, but I didn't.

[donheld]

33. What a baby

Grow the hell up.

[LittleClarkie]

38. Grovelbot supports Obama?

I would have thought he'd have stayed neutral.

[VolcanoJen]

39. Would you hang up on Scarlet Johanson?

I read somewhere she's made a robocall for Obama. Chris Rock, too. :-)

[Touchdown]

41. Is she the one in that Island movie?

Dunno her.;)

[Renew Deal]

40. The intelligent reason to not vote for someone I've heard yet.

:rofl:
