Blocking Stupid Republican Phone Calls

[RPM]

OK - working from home today; So far this morning I have received TWO phone calls from the Republicans on auto-dial machines. I THOUGHT THOSE THINGS WERE ILLEGAL!?!?!?!?!!! One had a blocked origin number and the other had a number 000-000-0000.

Anyway - if you don't want to deal with those fuccos, use *77 to block anon calls.

1. Actually, in their 'wisdom', Congress exempted

politicians and non-profit fundraising groups from the do-not-call registry.

2. Duly noted

I am painfully aware of that fact; more irked by not having a number to call back... and give them a taste.

btw - why have they all been repub calls...

ALSO - I didnt think that the calling had been outlawed; BUT, i did think using an automatic dialer and tape recording had been. Or did I just pick that up from the episode of simpsons where homer got one and ran a ponzi scheme???
