Obscene recorded telephone calls.
Five so far - two yesterday. Faux populist attack 'ads' for DeVos - twisted, sick, and lying.

Not even the 'courtesy' of a live person at the other end to hear me yell "lying fascist bastards!" or "corrupt corporatist fucks!"

Disgusting. :grr:

4. These bastids will stop at nothing.
Several folks have told me about that particular call at a campaign meeting last night.

7. Did the guy say "I work for Amway. You got a problem with that?"
Edited on Fri Sep-15-06 01:44 PM by Strawman
That cracked me up when I saw that. How is that not a campaign contribution?

I immeidately began thinking of what kinds of business related rationales that company could possibly have for spending that kind of money on a TV ad campaign about the company image. I'm sure they'll say the brand name is taking a beating from Democrats because of Devos' run for Governor, but come on. That brand has been a joke for years and they never cared before as long as they could recruit enough people into their schemes. They just kept changing the name.

8. Corporate hypocrisy is expanding like mad.
The insanely corrupt notion of 'deregulation' is like 'deregulating' vehicles by letting the throttles run wide open and removing all them 'pensive traffic signs like 'Speed Limit' and 'Yield.'
